Unique Swedish primitive snow skis. Beautiful engraved tops, “ridge top” contour to help stiffen and reduce schuss slap. Many early skis found in Norway, Sweden, etc. featured tips at both ends to allow a broken ski to still be used; simply turn the ski around and off you go. This pair is in good condition for their age. Note that one ski has a missing bit at its’ tail. We can only imagine the story!
