Hello Jose,

Quote:
I might also add that they are also earlier, perhaps pre-1890s. Most of those I have seen seem to be from 1700s to the mid 1870s.
Could you please elaborate: Do you refer to Moro twistcore in general?

While many twistcore blades are really old (19th c. or even archaic), I've seen "plenty" that seemed to suggest a 20th c. origin to me.

Regards,
Kai

Hi Kai,

Yes I am referring to most Moro twist cores that I have seen. As far as I have seen, they seem to have trailed off as we entered the 20th century came.
