This very large Sawfish snout called a Rostrum, makes a striking and unique decorative accessory. Typically these are found in the 20"-30" range, but this one measures a full 41.25" in length. This fine specimen makes for quite a trophy and is mounted upright on its own custom made steel stand. It's in excellent condition and has only one missing tooth, which is unusual considering what it is and how its used.
