Rooster Posted December 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 Doesn't have as made marks like my other Jabos, hopin it's older but if it's Jabo I'm cool with it. ALSO, Does Not glow under UV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 I don't believe it's oxblood, you can see through it in places, real oxblood even when backlit can't be seen through, I'm no familiar with it but it's not Akro, and it looks newer to me. Someone will drop in with the correct I.D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berryb Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 I'd certainly keep it, it's a dandy. As for ox always being opaque: same view of a beat up mib, top light and back light. Actually I think the most striking thing about this mib is the blue in the backlit pic. Thanks Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 I'm kind of wondering if the marble in the original post is is some type of torch work marble. 2nd pic down has me especially thinking that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omg you are right! I was feeling the marble because it's so smooth and then i felt a tiny scuff, turns out it's an engraved signature! It says RL 03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Very good. I thought it might be a contemporary or something ground or polished heavy. Oxblood can end up opaque or if thin enough like most opaque colors it can be translucent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
