Eric Knife Enthusiast Registered: 11/18/15 Posts: 1668 Loc: Michigan	There was no date on the box, so the only indication is the stones. The plain white ended in 1973 and the India marked stone started in 1989-1990. But was the India stone just chucked in the box????? My guess is that the India stone doesn’t belong. Thanks, Eric _________________________ Eric
