Great thread to resurrect! Took this pic a couple years ago, just out walking in the woods.

Due to my studying of the jk archives i believe this is a rusk & bond derrenger combo

The derringer is a Bond, 45 Colt and 410 ga. I like the fact that it shoots 3" shot shells that are deadly on snakes and small game at close range. The JK is a one off recurve that never really received a name as far as I know unless John gave it one. It's a great all around hard use blade and the convex edge holds up extremely well.

That Hurley Creek still looks new, I'm thinking you haven't used it hard enough yet. Keep posting pics and I'll end up getting one.

Maybe things will come together in a couple months. Yesterday the vet told my wife that he recommends surgery for our older dog to remove a couple of lumps. His cost estimate for the procedure was right at $1000. He's a conscientious and dedicated man who we trust so Izzie will be looking at surgery after the first of the year.

Pets are more important than a knife any day.
Smoke's up for Izzie.

Thank you, she is more than just a pet! I don't think the surgery is critical but the vet said by doing it now we prevent it from becoming that way.

Prayers sent for Izzie. Those bumps are expensive, Stella had a couple removed last year for a little over $500 each, but I’ll give up stuff for myself before neglecting my dogs.

Hope all goes well for Izzie and the surgery is smooth.
