I'm seeing red!!Charlie, the overwhelming consensus among the traditional family would be a resounding yes if the opportunity for you to make another HJ presents itself...the bandaid would be a neat thing to include
My most carried HJ of Charlie's is the Teamster Jack, I can't say if that makes it my favorite, to say which HJ is my favorite would be a hard thing for me to actually pin down. I have four of the Teamster Jacks, Two Tomato Acrylic (one a safe queen) then the red jigged bone and an ebony. These two are both gifts from Duncan...see Duncan, you gift me so many YOU forget but not me my friend
The tomato is carried the most of the four I own and for obvious reason, I love the size, punch and the Tomato changes endlessly in different light, I love the Tomato
Couple of nice ones, Paul!! I too, like Tomato, contrary to my usual sneering at synthetic handles!!
What an absolute jewel of a knife... thanks for postingHi everyone
Here is a HJ I have been waiting for to arrive, this Knife is a awesome HJ, in beautiful condition - could one call it Mint with just a couple of tiny Carbon spots?
There was a few Knives from Boker out there recently - some pretty supreme examples, I remember contacting our friend Herder and letting him know of some auctions- he was already watching them
The story behind this and those other Knives is that these are from the Salesman Boards that Ernst Felix, former Boker President apparently took with him when he left that came from the Salemans Boards, SMK obtained these in the 80's, and this Knife was purchased having been recently cut from the Board.
So... just how accurate the story is I am not sure, it tends to make sense with the untouched beautiful condition this knife is in, having never been used or cleaned.
The Knife has such deep dense Ebony that it's quite remarkable, the Liners and Springs are all Steel, this Knife is immaculate in every way, the Walk and Talk is beautiful. A very welcomed addition to my HJ family.
Please forgive the White -Tack you can see just poking out past the edge- it makes it look as though there is a Problem with the edge- which there is not....
I really like this Punch...
