What do you mean by non matching Damascus barrels? If your referring to the pattern in the barrels being different this isn't that uncommon in my experience.
Two fine looking Parkers for your first ones, your off and running now.

Hi Rich, the barrels have very different patterns. I was told that a salesman's model would have different patterns so that potential customers could be shown the different damascus options available. Additionally, the wood is highly figured--I suspect probably above average for a GH, again to showcase the possibilities for a customer. I will take some pics tonight and post them.
As I'm new to the Parker world, I'm open to learn as much as I can about these pieces of history. |

I see what you mean about the tubes having different Damascus patterns. The right tube is definitely 4-iron crolle but it is difficult to determine the crolle count in the left tube. 4-iron crolle was rarely used on a grade-2 Parker. A research letter certainly won't give a clue about the mismatched tubes.
