Gettin' Jiggy With It - Jigged Bone Photos

By a ruler its a bit more than 3-3/8", on my digital calipers it is 3.433"

@Fodderwing you are absolutely correct about the quality of jigged bone shown here. I'm spinning!

 

Thank you my friend.

 

The shield puts it as early as 1925 and the stamp puts it as late as late 1930's. I'm pretty sure since it was made during this time period that it would have to be stamped "Germany" if it was made there, so I suspect it is U.S. made. Overall, cool knife David

 

Thanks for the history help, much obliged. I love learning these things.

 

This 97 is a beast, but the the jigging feels comfortable in hand. I love the burnt and blackened jigging with its’s contrast with rest of the Brazilian cherry wood.

 

That whole piece....sings !!!! Tremendous

 

Thanks Gev

 

Beautiful old knives, Kevin and Rob! Time travelers!

 

Awesome knife, I was in on that one and now that I see your pictures I wish I had it even more

 

Here is one I wish I still had. Rick Menefee's first Lanny's Clip.

 

Thanks ! The pics didn't do it justice. Mine aren't the greatest but it really is nicer in hand. The main blade saw a little use, there's a few light sharpening scratches. The pen has the factory grinds. The action is like new, tight and snappy.

Thanks Al!

 

Rob that is incredible. A dream in time travel.

 

Thanks Dwight ! It's definitely not going to be a user. sure is fun to handle it, amazing that it survived in such good condition.

 

Now that is just phantastic, sir!
