Best not necessarily BEST but favoriteJigging?

ACSB is usually seen on Queen Cutlery's D2 pocket-knives and often looks great. Worth remembering it was also offered on some fixed blade D2 knives as well, I find this pleasant.

I don't care for most Rough Rider jigging at all, but the jigging of the "strawberry bone" on this muskrat is an exception, and was what first drew me to this knife. Which then started my fascination with what I originally thought was a "weird" pattern. 😁

Jigging; a large book could be written about the variations. Some do it well and others, not so much.

GEC: Very hit or miss on their jigging and some is downright bad. They have done some very nice work though like on the 09 esquires. I wish they would quit experimenting with styles and settle on a nice signature style as their own.

Case: usually pretty good.

The old Rogers Bone and Schrade peach seed jigging were really nice

The old Winchester knives from the 1920"s have beautiful jigging.

I never liked Winterbottom , worm groove, cougar scratch and the like

Older Japanese jigging is horrendous.

Winchester from 1928 or so.




GEC jigging good and not so good


 
The Favorite jigging that I have is on these 2 old Taylors Eye Witness knives .

Very close to them is My Charlie's Lamb

But in reality I have seen no better jigging than some of the Catts that Mr. Primble Primble posts . Unfortunately for me the best Catt Jigging that I have is this one with what they called Indian Trails .

I really like a lot of the GEC jigging, but it is hard to argue with some of the “pocket worn” case jigging. I prefer smoother options.
