I am amazed by that shield. I am even more amazed that you forgot you had it! Crazy cool.

Choice examples there Nick! I keep dreaming of Tip-Bolsters but I've yet to see a contemporary manufacturer or Custom maker attemp them, a vanished skill?

Thanks, Will

Thanks Will. Yes I agree with you, I mostly see them on old knives. I’m sure there are custom ones out there though. Are they really that difficult to make? I’m tempted to get one custom made...

A squirrel shield Andy Fannin did for me, I love this shield and intend to use it again on some other commissions from him.

I favour this type of shield from CASE as it mimics the older styles. The G-10 is not so bad either

You are very kind my friend. By the way, if you don't mind, what is the pattern # on your Case. Thanks!

A couple different ones:

Craftsman Eagle

Case Silverscript

Dog Paw

Love the Dog Paw shield! Forgot about that one when I posted. It’s the reason I bought a 33!

Part of the fascination of shields is the skill needed to inlet them. Opinions vary, some connoisseurs prefer the shield to be slightly raised, other like me take the opposite position, flush or sunk amongst a topography of Stag... This GEC shield has been shown before but my 83 never fails to impress me by the skill and audacity with which the shield has been inlet.

Too bad GEC doesn't elect to do this anymore

Really Unexcelled Peerless

I agree will they’re excellent

Took me a while to dig it out Ron, got a few knives you see... In the end it was almost right in front of me on a coffee table

CASE 101048 as ground stainless

Haven’t saw the Tree Shield yet. Among my favorites are the Federal and it’s variants the bomb and the different arrowheads.
