Great knife, leave it alone!

Also, for whatever reason, it seems like 9'' is rarer from the "golden age" of stilettos, unless every knife show I've attended was nearly-devoid of the size. 8'' and smaller, then 11'' and bigger have been more plentiful in my limited experience looking at cases and whatnot.
Knee-deep in the hoopla...

Luke that’s good to know. We have knife shows but no auto’s, Maryland. Really wanting an 11” and 13”. If anyone is at a knife show and see’s one, please get the sellers name and contact information.
Maybe a finders fee!
Thanks

Should I shine it up or leave it alone?
