Photos Agents of SHIELD - Your Favorite Traditional Knife Shields

[veitsi_poika]

Some more I've gathered with interesting SHIELDS since this thread went idle...

 

[pjsjr]

Sure glad this thread was revived, don't know that I have a favorite. I do like unusual shapes and themes.
Didn't see these recent ones from GEC.
The Buck is a departure for them concerning the shield,

What about a Remington Fed. and a GEC cloud.

Haven’t seen a coined Sterling Old Timer posted. Box ticked.

Here's a Böker shield that seems somewhat unusual to me. The knife is a big beautiful stockman I won in a Will Power GAW; thanks, Will! Not sure how legible it will be, but it shows a typical version of the Böker tree with the text "140 Jahre" (140 years). (I don't know if this shield has already been posted in this thread, since the "Search" function for BF is apparently still loading indices and doesn't work for all practical purposes. I never realized how much I use "Search" until this week when it's no longer available.)


And as long as I'm looking at Böker, here's a Beer Barrel Canoe with the usual Böker "SOLINGEN" shield that serves as a "mark of quality" for me:

Certainly, I know it's not a shield...but the Otter with a fish in its mouth is a very old mark and here is stamped on the copper handle of this Mercator. I find it fitting and it's iconic

Well my 3 grandsons didn't give me this knife, but I love it and I love being a grandad and introducing them to old school pocket knives

I bought this Ulster with this "shield" on it. Don't know if the previous owner lost or replaced the original.
I like it though.

Came here looking for inspiration for a mop shield I'm doing on amboina burl, kinda leaning towards a heart or a federal shield.
Here's some to share.
