All in on jacks

Here's another little quill knife, this one by Ulster. It's a solid piece of bone that's grooved out to fit the blade and backspring. They also made a larger version that was a budding knife. It had a budding blade, and the solid end of the handle was filed down to a thin paddle shape, much like the budding knives you see with the ivory inserts on the ends.

Malextwo the jigging on that Ulster is as good as it gets.
Charlie, the way the edge jumps past the tang and the swedge on that Empire is something else.
Stu that little Imerial is nice. I see a lot of those around Massachussetts.
