Score on those handles wow!!! Selling any of them?

Same here, i have to have a look at a couple of my dads old surveyors compasses and see if the rose is reversed on them too.

yes sir lol this is what i have read: FAQ: Why are East and West reversed on some compass roses? The reversed compass rose may cause some initial confusion, but in use it is obvious why the compass rose must have East and West reversed. When you are sighting directly North, the compass needle...

From my knowledge of Ruana's knives Id say this one is early 50's. He started making the ones with the small knife stamped into them in 1944. This one has dovetail elk antler handles so it is a little newer than 1944. For a 100% handmade knife of that era the fit and finish is awesome. Ruanas...
