MOTHER OF PEARL 500

"Any custom shop numbers on back of the blade?
Like the center one"

Nope, just what is shown. You have some nice 500's there!! This one is my first. Is there a way to remove that small mark, it's almost on the surface?

The 500 duke was introduced in 1979 with the script tang stamp. That tang stamp was changed to block letters some time in the 84-85 years. sorry, best I can do for you is your knife was made sometime in the 79-85 years. Note: this timeline is from the Blades guide book.

There are a few guys here who are pearl collectors. That is one of the few I have. Maybe one of them can answer your coloration question.
