ok, i got the easy open today, and it is just as it looks in those pics. my only concern is that the bone is very dark. i know greenbone dye will turn after a lot of years, but does it go that dark?? just curious to know if this is really greenbone.
with the main blade sharpened and used as much as it has been, the pen blade looks virtually unused. tons of snap and no wobble to this knife being nearly 100 years old ::tu::

Don't worry about the color . Green bone can vary from being so dark that it looks almost black to so light that it looks light tan or yellow . Your knife is definitely green bone ! :mrgreen: ::nod::
