Tom, I bought the "other" post (1911 Springfield circa 1914 garage sale find), and got them to throw this in as part of the deal. They had $50.00 marked on it. There is a gun show this morning and I'm hauling it down there. BTW, on the C&R board, I was also told this was part of the Spanish contract supplied to Italy during WWI, thus explaining the lack of marks of any kind. FYI, the edges are very sharp and I doubt this piece was heavily buffed or buffed at all. Although anything less than 0000 steel wool should be restricted to non-gun owners
