Thanks David!
I don't have any Ivory, so I wasn't sure. Supposedly brought back from WWII, and in a closet ever since. There was thick grease on the blade and in the scabbard.

That seems about the right timeframe Steve. Looks like a nice quality piece though, not tourist junk.

I agree (and am jealous) - looks like ivory to me too.

Great piece - you are truly "Tito Gunong"!
