I'm guessing you Pick those yourself, what three beautiful handles.
Hey guys, haven't been around here in a while. Too much of a good thing can be bad, especially for my wallet. Anyhow, here are my 25's.....
Thanks, Gary.
I gave this one to a close friend. It has pitch black ebony!
I gave away this one to my shootin' buddy. He carries it all the time; it kicked his CV yellow peanut right out of his pocket.
Jug Johnson, you must be a great friend to have, those are beauties!
Thanks Pertinux, yes that's a horesecut antique.
Thanks for the reply!
I'm thinking it might date from the early days of the wide-spring secondary blades (2008)...? Can ye open the thing?
Great pictures of great knives. :thumbup:

P, You're right, its from 2008 with the wide springs. Its surprisingly easy to open both blades, about a 4 to 5 on the pull. The small blade on the stag one also from 2008, was a nailbreaker when it was new but is about a 7 now.
I like this one. Cleaned it out with Ballistol, it has centered blades, springs are a little shallow in both half stops, flush in open and closed. Great stag. A real winner in my eyes. Feels good in the hand.
Here's a couple of my 25's. On the black one I took a little belly off the clip blade (shown next to the stag clip blade for comparison), and made the pen blade into a little sheepsfoot blade. Both nail nicks on the mark side on both knives, just how I like 'em.
Oh, my.
I brought this picture over from t'other thread, because of yet another great view your 25s:
The brown beauty at the top of the first two pictures, second from the right on the last: is that "horsecut antique"?
Stunning.
