Now Mike, why would you keep that nice knife from us??? Nice Jack; with faceted bolsters!! It's about time!!!


I don't remember if I've posted this old English Jack, but it's a nice old Taylor's Eye Witness, at just over 4"!!!
Typical Sheffield stag fitting from the old era!!! Not marked England, so could be late 19th century knife!!!!View attachment 2938561View attachment 2938562
Still full and snappy after all those years!!

One of the most impressive knives I've managed to add to the pile recently. A KA-BAR large 5 3/8" folding hunter with a locking swing guard. The swing guard is also the blade lock and has a Dec 4th 1923 Patent date on it. The knife is mid 1920's to 1930 with KA-BAR Reg. US. Pat. Off. tang stamp front and Union Cut Co Olean NY stamp on back.

I didn’t know that those came with a match striker pull.
