jhomer2172 Posted July 28, 2023 Report Share Posted July 28, 2023 These two are presently on eBay at 15/16”. That’s the first problem, the color and patterns seem off also and even though they both have a seam it just feels weird! What thinketh thou? Modern torch made? Did Jabo have a special run this size? Vacor? I am pretty sure Peltier didn’t. thanks jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted July 28, 2023 Report Share Posted July 28, 2023 Agree w/ modern torchmade, not machine made Pelt, Jabo or Vacor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhomer2172 Posted July 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2023 Thanks! Although I was wrong about Pelt not making a 15/16” mib! Just very rare. I have seen MCRs that big but not NLRs! jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with torch made on this one. There were/are some rascals that did/do a very good job at trying to copy the very best Pelts. Marble--On!!

AvvaRae Posted July 29, 2023 Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 Does torch made mean with a literal torch? How are you able to identify this? Just looking to understand this evaluation better 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
