Decent ebony 3 5/8" New York Knife Co curved sheepsfoot jack. I'm thinking late 1800's, early 1900's.not marked Hammer Brand.

Where’s the best place to find mint condition old stuff?

Old bones.

Anything that looks like it came out of my grandfather’s pocket, is ok by me

Schrade Cut Co. I thought about cleaning this one up but decided to oil the joints and leave as-is

For as big a company as Russell was they are a hard knife to find in decent condition, barlows are fairly common but jacks and other patterns are uncommon. Picked up a 3 3/8" 2 blade bony jack, straight line tang stamps which are hard to find on a jack. All steel construction, still tight and snappy. I like Russells a lot, my Dads family were all from the Greenfield Mass area.
