All in on jacks

Thanks to everyone who posted in this thread. Got this Sperry & Alexander jack in the mail a few days ago so I thought I would throw it in here as well.

Looks like it was made by Schrade, Mike. Nice knife. I like sheepfoot jacks especially. Combined with a good pen blade, the sheepfoot makes it a nice useful knife.
 
here's one we haven't seen yet from Case...a High Art scaled large jack...

The Jacks are Back!
Sword Brand old school Camillus, with 4-line stamp on the pen.

And for contrast, a not-so-old school Tony Bose! From back when he did more Pearl!

Here's a couple recent acquisitions.
Remington in bone and Keen Kutter in ebony.

Guys...this thread is awesome!!... as most threads are in the Traditional.
Seeing these threads, the knives that everyone has great pleasure in showing-it blows me away to be honest...here in New Zealand we are sheltered from the history of older contries..such as U.S.A, England etc... so therefore the older knives just dont have the depth here :(
The odd find comes up, other than that...but these threads are just fantastic...a real eye opener :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
Here are some of my Case jacks- I couldn't fit them all on my scanner, so I guess I'm not technically "all in".

Andy!!...great knives there, although all those knives look great-the sixth one up from the bottom( middle row)... would like to see a bit more of that-with its brother next to it with the same coloured bone.
 
Corey, nice pair of EOs! I like the Remington "radio" knife especially.
I used to motorcycle through New York State where Endicott-Johnson shoes were made!
Duncan, I used to think I was isolated from the knife community here in western Canada. I empathize with your situation WAYYYYY down in NZ!!
Nice buncha Cases, Andy!!
 
Anything I can think, Elliot has already thought, ordered and got it :D Beautiful Eureka knife, Elliot :thumbup:

He's like that. Yes, he is.

As long as he'll share some pics with us, I'm okay with it.

Sweet knives Elliott.

You know, I don't even have a jackknife to my name unless you can call those two blade Silver Knights I have jackknives. Main drop point blade and small sheepsfoot on the other end. Or stretch the definition to include the trapper pattern. I guess I need to get me a proper jackknife of some description. Maybe a Case Texas Jack or a GEC harness jack or something similar.

"Super, super, fantastic"(as David Frost would say). Great show. cory I may have to start trending towards EO's myself.:thumbup:
 
This Camillus is a little different with it's DOJ seal inlet into the scale...date would put this in the WWII era

This tiny jack is a favorite, never have figured out the maker but it is very well made and that extreme clip....wow...

This Schmidt and Sohn in horn is just classic...this is the type knife Mac would have used I do believe...

I don't have anything I feel justified in posting in this thread so I decided to do something about it and ordered a Case swayback jack in Chestnut CV. I'll drop a picture in here when it gets here.

Rather than flood this thread with pictures of Harness Jacks that have mostly been posted before, I thought I'd pic the occasional one with some special features.
Iroquois brand, I think by Utica Cutlery.
It is almost cartoonish-looking, but is a well made, serious knife!!

Great photos everyone. Charlie that is a most unusual looking knife.

This is an old Rawson Bros from Sheffield.
