Anyone ever seen one of these? I'm pretty sure it's a Sindt, yet it has a white head.

My Sindts all have JS engraved on the back of the head where the Delrin meets the metal. That doesn't mean yours would if it were an experiment or a prototype or even an early whistle. I emailed John Sindt a couple of years ago when my head froze and he quickly emailed me instructions on how to free it so he responds to emails. I'd pop him an email. He could tell you if this was one of his.

They are not unheard of and have been discussed in the past.

Look at this

I thought I remembered that Mary Bergin played one at some point, but couldn't put my finger on where I saw it. Thanks for sharing this.
