This is a terrific example of a French frame back. I need the coin to pay for some new (old) straights on the way or I would be keeping this. The tang is etched, "A.D. Arbenz's Mandarin Jougne France." The stubbiness of the tang hints at a mid-1800's razor but that is just an educated guess. As you can see the blade itself has a very cool stylistic "Arbenz" on the face of it. The blade centers perfectly, has just the right amount of friction in the hinge and has no signs of tarnish or rust that I can find. Let the pictures be your best guide. $77.00 CONUS. First come, first served!
