That's a beauty. Workable art is the best art. I seem to remember a guy here that is pretty good at fixin cases. Hmmmm. Who could that be I wonder?
Need your Opinion on this guy’s. What Exactly do I have Here. Thank you. Sent from my iPhoneXR using Tapatalk
Cliff. Is that nickel plated? If so I have one also. 1918 I think. My guess is an army issue. That is pure speculation on my part. I would love to know for sure also. Tom Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
The Aristocrat came out spectacularly. I don't see them that often with that handle. Use it well. I love the Old Types and have several, but not one of these. Enjoy!
Interesting. I will need to get mine out and look. My case is beat on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
It looks nice. I liked the patina as well. I wonder if that handle was the inspiration for the Tradere handle. They look very similar to me.
Yes. The Tradere handle was inspired by the 1914 Aristocrat handle. The Tradere website made a reference to it back when it was still active.
I was too late... If anyone ever needs a reason to keep patina & tarnish, PM me. I’ll show you what it can look like!
