Thanks guys. Bills knives are great in every aspect and if you think the knives are great wait until you meet Bill! (He is even better than his knives.)

That harness jack is great. I've never seen one before. It always amazes me at the variety of knives that were around way back when.

 

[T.K.C.]

Those are beautiful!!

waynorth asked me to post another Ruple for him and I was glad to oblige. The more Ruples in this thread the better. I'm sure he will be along and give us the details on this stag puppy.

AH! My favorite Harness Jack to date! This is Bill's first ever HJ, his proto. ATS-34, I've carried it and used it a little.
Thanks for posting it Thomason. I guess you all can tell I collect this pattern. It's one of the rarest patterns out there in old knives, so I thought it would be nice to have a contemporary one in modern steel.

I'm gonna have to talk to that South Texan! Great thread!
