COMPLETE crossgrain!
A few pepper spots, but just normal age, untouched by funmling blade-polishers!

THANK YOU ALL for your kind words!!! When I recieved it and saw it "in hand" I was SO excited that I just had to share with the rest of you guys. I knew you would appreciate it, and I appreciate your kind feedback. Good hunting, Johnny PS- All of that asside, these nice ones are getting HARD to find, not to mention that they are getting pretty pricy these days aren't they?

Hello, Johnny! That dagger has everything one could ask for. Congrats! When it came up on Paul's site, I knew it would be "scarfed-up" immediately. Good for you, guy! Regards, Leipzig

I agree with Johnny,prices on SA daggers are going up,both here and in North America.Scarce maker marks are now being sold for up to �400 more than the average asking price of around �380 here in the UK.Still if you are patient and willing to search at shows,you can find the odd scarce maker,I recently found the Berns SA that I posted here that way and did not pay over the odds for it,the Otter trade mark.
I also think that when Thomas Wittmann publishes his much awaited book on SA daggers,it will boost interest and the prices will go up again,just my opinion,what do others think.
Ivan.

That's a fine dagger, and I've had her in hand, hehehe, as I traded that one a,d a few other daggers to Paul to get his chained NPEA. Paul is great to work with, even if cash poor, he will take trades.
Congrats Johnny, I'm just glad I had a duplicate Undine so I could let one go.
Best, John
