Very nice Cal!!!

Love that little guy, John. That calls for a bigger one. This Catt obviously came from Eric.

That's a beautiful jumbo Cal and so very hard to find in decent condition. A Catt jumbo in bone, pretty sure it's a very early Catt.

Cal, nothing boring about that Ulster… the peach seed looks mint. And that jumbo Catt is magnificent. I recently found its twin in Stag. I took a gamble at it… the sellers pictures were very dark and it hand some rough handle repair work that I didn’t notice until it was in hand.

Lyle, those Sears catalogs sound very interesting. I’d love to get my hands on some of the old catalogs. Reminds me of the days before the internet and thumbing through JC Penny's catalogs when I was a just boy.

Beautiful Catt John… your photography is top notch.

Charlie, those a good looking HJ, that celluloid reminds of “candy stipe” if I’m not mistaken.

Augie, that pick bone looks awesome on your Catt… lots of character

Russell made mostly Barlows!! These are rare, non-barlows, apparently!! Older pics!
I found these all around 2005-2006! HJ prices started to jump, then the market dried up!! (I probably bought them all!!)

Beauties Charlie, as you state you don't find many Russell non barlow knives especially very nice condition ones like those.

Admittedley, I'm not a harness jack sort of guy, but that jigging is making me rethink things. Oh, and the other two are quite handsome knives too.
