Western 258 Reclothed in Fossil Ivory

[orvet]

Here's a nice Western I completed recently.
It is a #258 that I bought in nearly mint condition but the handle was starting to off gas and caused a little bit of rust on the bottom side of the tang.
I was fortunate to get the knife before there was substantial damage from the celluloid. I rehandling the knife and fossil ivory.
The sheath shown with a knife, is the factory sheath correct for the knife.

I hope you enjoy the pictures.

I don't collect many fixed blade knives, but I'm sure I would have thought very seriously about collecting that beauty if I had seen it before it sold.

Absolutely gorgeous, highly collectible, one-of-a-kind piece!

Very nice work, Dale.
