Original, although the blades have been heavily cleaned.

Re: Winchester on Ebay
I agree the blades have been heavily cleaned, as there are pits and spiders beneath the re-established glaze.
However, I don't think the knife was used much. The blades are quite full and the handles do not show wear consistent with the patina on the blades.
I think the knife was handled with oily hands, then put away to tarnish over time.
Too bad they cleaned it.
It's a beautiful pattern.

Re: Winchester on Ebay
Don't worry about it Chet, if we get four more years of Obama we'll be using the Euro too
and we won't have to convert.
