Pre-1950. stag handle, stainless and brass,3/16 spine,convex grind. Unusual grind for a straight razor maker. But, just as sharp as a razor. Known to be one of the best makers from Eskilstuna.

Reducing weight while at the same time maintaining blade strength is a tightrope walk, I'm sure. You mention the White Hunter; a knife whose virtues I can personally attest, having carried one throughout my military service. Your knife, above, is a classic example of the cutler's art. A beautiful knife, indeed!

Thanks for the comments Ron. I think the maker was influenced by the way Solingen makers were grinding thick blades at the time. Like the Puma White Hunter. It's surprisingly light and well balanced. The spine has a distal taper beginning about an inch from the forward end of the fuller. A large grinding stone must have been used to make the wide, yet shallow, fuller. The tang is secured with a slotted nut recessed into the stainless pommel. I'm not sure if the stag is reindeer or moose. Both were used commonly at the time. Notice that the rear of the fuller serves as the ricaso.

That's one of the most pronounced fuller's that I have ever seen!
