Lovely patina on both sides.
Great overall condition
12″ fully extended + additional 3″ with caliper extended
Measures 12″ L x 5/16″ W open, 3 3/8″ L x 5/8″ W folded, 1/4″ when fully opened.

There is a needle test that may test for ivory, I tried it and it seems to be but not totally sure

The test consists of heating up the point of a needle until it’s red-hot and then pricking what you believe is your ivory carving. If the needle goes in, it’s plastic; if not, it’s probably ivory, or at least bone.
