Navy Question - 02/06/2010 11:30 AM
Guys, I'm no navy expert, I believe from a little research this piece is pre 1930, it has an Ivory grip, is that normal for these depot marked pieces??, the blade has been cut down, I've seen this on numerous Navy's just not sure why??,the pommel is a different colour than the rest of the fittings, am I right to suspect that it is not the original pommel but a later period replacement, I believe this was common practice a little later in the period??.
I'm open to all opinions.
Cheers
Gary
