Hello All,

I *think* I know what this is, as the title suggests... but is there any way to figure out if it is genuine or not? Might anyone shed any light on this piece? The design appears to have been etched in, and then wiped with ink.

Regards,


Buckleboy

Real or not, It's a nice piece. Maybe you could have it made into a knife handle.
