I had a customer send me this Boker USA for a rehandle. It had handles that were celluloid it appeared wasn’t really any gassing damage but they were shrinking.
The pattern # on the tang is 94171. I would just like to know an approximate age TIA.
The handle material I chose to put on was desert Ironwood hope y’all approve.

I believe there is information regarding BOKER TANG STAMPS by conducting an Internet search.
That's where I would start.

But some might be able to tell without a search if they could see the tang stamp. I certainly could not.

I had Jeff put some new scales on mine that belonged to my Father.
I know he bought it in either the late fifties or early sixties.
You did a beautiful job on that one! ::tu::
