And the sheath for one Cowboy Toothpick!

 

[Phil in Alabama]

I found another A. G. Russell Gent's Hunter in stag. This one appears to be one of the later made ones as it has a tapered tang. It has some pretty stag and I think these had 154CM blades.

Wow! That IS the real deal!

It's nice to see this thread so active.
I have another sheath like this one arriving today for my other knife like this one. Then I think I really am done with the late, lamented, Ontario Knife Company.
And I have all I need from BPS for the nonce.

I hope it's the same sheath. It sometimes seems like any seller's description that isn't hopelessly vague or self-contradictory turns out to be clearly erroneous.

Guess I'll keep it going Screened. If I posted these before [probably did in the last 10 years] sorry, but here goes

I have one of those 498s. I didn't know it was from a bench-made collection. And if, in the end, there could be only one, for me it might be an H-15.
Or maybe an OKC Bushcraft Field.
My sheath came, and it's the right one.

Oh boy that's a looker! Like a 148 but way better! I'm guessing that is a special edition I'm going to do some digging on it.

an H-15.

Yeah that's a tough one... The h-15 is awesome. I'd have a hard time choosing between the h-15 and the drop point hunter though. It's younger than the h-15 and an old timer model but man is it useful



I actually wanted to add to this thread today with an Olcut. This is an interesting knife that I bought on a whim earlier this year because it looked ..... Well.... Interesting

I'm pretty sure those handle scales are jigged wood (possibly cocobolo because of hardness and color). The jigging has held up very well. It seems too light to be bone but maybe I'm wrong. I've been reluctant to mess with them to figure it out. The blade has been used and sharpened many times as you can see, but overall the knife was very well cared for. The sheath isn't original but it came with it and works just fine. The loop is very loose and doesn't hold the handle at all.


Overall it's a really cool knife. Not sure I'd ever use it for anything or just keep it retired, but I enjoy owning it! Lol.

Really nice, Calvin, and jigged bone doesn't get much better, especially on a knife you need a good grip on.

Your post inspired me to go through my Gerber drawer. I've always liked this one in part because it's rather unusual:



While I enjoy the contours of the handle, it's rather cold to the touch. The sheath is a little worse for wear, but that's how it was when I acquired it. Unlike many similar Gerbers, this one is not marked with the model name. T-A

 

[Hickory n steel]

Canal Street Cutlery drop point hunter knife designed by D'Alton Holder exclusively for Canal Street. The steel is completely integral, with the blade, tang, and guard all being one piece. The steel is 19C27 Sandvik and Rockwell's at around 60-61. The blade is hollow ground and full mirror polished, and the tang is tapered. The knife measures 7 1/2" total with the blade measuring 3 1/8" from the shoulderView attachment 2415916View attachment 2415917View attachment 2415918View attachment 2415919View attachment 2415920

Man that looks like such an awesome knife.
I love carbon steel most, but this one sure is nice looking.

I've thought about spraying slick metal handles with flexi-seal. Haven't gotten around to trying it yet.
Gerber Miming. I have a box of four or so.

The dark blotch on my new leather sheath is from a rag soaked in neats' foot oil that I stuffed down it and had a hard time getting out again.
It will even out eventually.
With a UTK-S5 for variety.

Wonderful fixed blades being shown by all! Here's another Western

 

[tongueriver]

That one is WWII vintage or slightly later, with the bakelite pommel. Nice!
