Unfortunately the ball at the scabbard tip is missing. The chance of finding a replacement are pretty much nil. Unfortunate, as this is the deluxe scabbard. I have never seen this amount of damage to the ricasso, Perhaps this rode around in a tool box in the back of a truck for 50 years to get into this condition. Original model 39 hangers with need of replacement leather.


I agree that a better model would be desirable.
