This thread has no doubt been one of my favorites to go through page by page... just some awesome knives!!
I have a few to add today and some more as I get the pics.. and thanks to Campbellclanman for suggesting I post the Wostenholm English Jack here which I recently posted in the Stag Saturday thread :thumbup:
Here are 2 Wostenholms that I believe both date to the turn of the 19th century and no doubt after 1890...
Wostenholm English Jack (1531) - 4 & 9/16" - lockback - stag and a very lightly (if at all) sharpened blade
Thanks for looking...
That's a beautiful knife. The tapered and wrapped around spring is definitely old. I think it is a pruning knife with the blade narrowed and shortened a little over the years. Thanks for posting it.
Thought I could slip this pair in while the thread is refreshed:
