Charles, I never said there would be a silver ferrule.
I said, that maybe, (just maybe), there would be silver wire or segments on the grip, and I meant between the higher levels carving.
I agree with you the craftsman was imitating those things, but in between there could be some silverwire or brass segments for decoration or have a better grip.
But ofcourse maybe there never was, and it is just because I am used to see that on handles...
