This is also a recent purchase and for once I'm about up to speed with this one.
Its about 4" with two blades , a main blade of about 3.5" and a smaller blade about 2" long. It looks like stag to me but I'm not 100% sure.
Anyway I thought it was worth a punt.

Could be stag but I think I would lean more toward jigged worm groove bone, Really nice old piece what ever it is

When the handle material looks that nice it doesn't matter what it is. The pinched bolsters add a bit of class too. Overall just a superb knife.

Great looking knife. Long pulls, swedges is n both blades, pinched bolsters, what's not to like? And looks like "European stag" to me.
