Here is a Peanut from'32-55, nice bone and a Jack from '25-'32 with a repaired pile side scale. Never mind the knife rest.

Peace

Oh, I love the sound of the Mando, maybe a bit less when it's me, but nevertheless they are a joy when you hit it right.

I've always had a mandolin, at least for the last 40 or so years. Not much of a mando player but I do love them. This is one of my current ones. "The Gibson" Master Model A-5L.

Beautiul- Mandolins and fine pocketknives go hand in hand, I believe.
