My own favorite, a Winchester gunstock jack made in Germany in the mid '70s with gorgeous bone and random jigging.

If only it had any other shield.In my opinion, one of the most aesthetically pleasing slipjoints ever produced by GEC.

Very nice! You reminded me I also have a RR gunstock...more of a bartender's knife thoughI have only one example of a gunstock pattern, a Rough Rider that @btb01 generously gave me. Still curious about why this handle shape "evolved".
