How do I post a picture?

Either buy a membership to post directly, or use a third party hosting site.

Might be polished stag. Not easy to tell in the photo. Also no spacers at all. Unusual for sure. Angled blade stamp used after 1979. As far as I know.

It is definitely ivory and almost certainly African elephant ivory, although that is a tough call. They used it down at Orlando for awhile but cracking issues were a problem. This was before the ban, of course.

I have a hard time looking at a photo.

I can see the grain in the ivory on my computer monitor. On the other hand, I have been known to be wrong.

Just noticed this knife is for sale here. Add says its mastodon ivory. Better photos there. https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/for-sale-randall-made-knife-extremely-rare.1971726/

i was advised it was mastodon ivory for this model - though i may be wrong

Is there any way to check if elephant or mastodon? I was hoping to move it along to someone who would appreciate it - but if Elephant - that would make it impossible to send to the US as i am in Australia
