Thank you for your response
I know it's a so-called transitional stiletto but I did expect it to be cheaper.
I have difficulty selling it in Europe for 150€..

Thank you for your message
Yes you are probably right about the horn, I can't tell the difference between cow and buffalo horn

Some additional photos

Thank you for your answer, maybe other members of the forum can tell me more I love it too, it looks like it's new even though it might be 60 years old

Hi everyone, here is a new acquisition, a WANDY 11 inch in buffalo horn with nickel silver bolsters and D-stamped liners in very good condition.
I love it!
Do you know its price?
