Older 8 & 9" Slant Bolsters
Here's a few older models of the slant bolster Italian button o/c stilettos. Two are 7 3/4" with tangs stamped "INOX" and the newest arrival, my very favorite, measures 9 1/8" and has a very cool tang stamp featuring an Indian chief's head against a mountain scape over "Jndiana". I need a new camera to get a better pic of it, it's very detailed and I can't get close enough! I'm not sure exactly when these were made, but all three have transitional build & finish quality with nicely mirrored & pointy blades. Close deep/centered, snap hard and lock up rock solid. I feel lucky to have found these!! Hope you all like them!

Nice, I don't think I have ever seen the larger size before.
Re: Older 8 & 9" Slant Bolsters
Nice, my friend has the larger one and yours is the second I have ever seen......great find. Did you get them at a show? I have about six of the standard size and one beat up one with the Indian marking you have.

I have an 8" white ice acrylic marked ROSTFREI. Is that a different manufacturer?
I really like the larger of yours. You seem to have something for everybody in your collection.
