Me too. Maybe LF&C was using up blades. I'm not certain it's real ivory, but it has striations down in it, unlike any French ivory I've seen.
That's it. I'm not at my computer where the pictures are.

Cool Beans Lyle! So I have evidence that H&B cataloged two different 2.75" ivory knives, catalog #130 was called Buffalo Ivoroy, and catalog #150 was called Ivoroy, I've attached my pictures of both knives from my collection - to me, your knife looks more like #130 and #150 looks more like traditional ivory, YMMV

Sorry for the delay Tom. Still looks like natural ivory, if man made , it's the best imitation I've seen. Here's a seller's picture I kept that shows the handles better than my scan.
