Key Specifications & Identifiers

Shank Stamping: Stamped FRENCH above the oval C.P.F. logo, with BRIAR below. This indicates the briar block was imported from France, which was standard for premium American briar production in that era.
Band Markings: Features the oval C.P.F. logo over three pseudo-hallmarks. C.P.F. frequently used these simulated English hallmarks on nickel and silver-plated ferrules to give them an imported British look.
