That is particularly nice,I love the simplicity.

Have you any photos with the blades fully out?

That #10 hj is a great size and the opposite ends for blade and awl is nice.you don't see them pop up much,equal end and ebony,what can you say

Charlie, I remembered you having a custom with the VF punch but couldn't remember who made it, that's a beautiful Erickson, he did a great job of copying the punch

Bill Ruple made me two Harness Jacks!! This Stag was his first (prototype)!

Bill Ruple's second one was this one with the neat Star shield!! He made 3-4 stars before he was happy with the shield!!
Bill does amazing filework!!!

Richard Rogers made this Sheepfoot HJ for me, opting for the rarely used
Sheepfoot HJ!!
I have tested every custom punch, as it came my way!!

Beautiful color, that awl has no point,I hope it is not for nefarious reasons.

Empire was one of the few cutleries that made a Sheepfoot HJ!! ca. WWI !!!

 

[Oldy]

The rounded awl was useful in cleaning the bbq and fire pit grill.

It has a very sharp cutting edge, but limited hole-sizing!!

That would be blade-abuse!! THAT's nefarious!!!

 

[Oldy]

That empire bone whiskey/golden is the reason I love new bone in that color, the aging is almost unbeatable,

Tony Bose made this Beautiful HJ, shown hear with free-cut newspaper (Sharp!!), and test-holes in Leather!!
