It is a mystery to me. I got this at a Knife & Gun show in '89. The seller was the maker [i think]. Flashy little blade.
 
 
  At the time I was told it is ivory, it looks like the real thing. I have never tested it, and won't. 
 
 Are any of our GBO brothers familiar with this maker? The signature is rendered fairly closely but I still can't make it out. I believe the seller[maker?] told me he was from here in the northwest. Twenty years have made this transaction foggy. I would be interested if anyone may have an opinion of it's value? I'm just curious. it is not for sale. All information, opinion, assesment, is very welcome.
