Well, that was worth all the effort! It certainly educated me. I’ve never come across bone that light. I tend to think of it as amber to very dark brown. Now I get the ‘bone white’ reference.
It’s silly when I think about it. Of course I know that bone is very light, but I just don’t connect it with the colour I expect on a knife.
That one is a beauty!

.....to tell the truth, I never thought about it being ivory, I just thought it was bone, who knows, that color does look like ivory!!............
