Hallo, I acquired this handle a few years ago from my grandpa. I do not know wheather it comes from his family or my grandma bought it (she was a collector of antiquities). If so, it must have been bought not later than 1960, when she retired. I am not shure about its use. Is it really the handle of a cutting object? It is made of ivory, this is the only think I am shure of, I have tested it and verified with an expert. Can someone help me to identify this object? I'd be very happy to return the favour: virtual beer on the net or real beer if you happen to come and visit Venice.

Good morning everybody! My name is Alessio and I am from Italy. I am not really into Japanese culture, but I am looking for help to identify what a handle I have is. I am going to post some pictures in the relevant thread, hoping someone can help me.
