Description: Rare vintage Ivory dagger by world famous knife maker the late Ruffin Johnson. Ruffin was inducted into the Texas knife makers hall of fame a few years before he passed away. This beauty has a super mirror polish double edge blade. Gorgeous ivory with a few cracks which I had Ruffin repair a few years before he died. He used a special knife glue that is soaked up in the ivory and seals the cracks and the ivory probably for the life of the knife. The handle is accented with fancy lugged guard and diamond pommel. The original leather sheath has the letter L carved in it. Knife has never been used and is near mint condition.
