"Old Knives"

Interesting shape to that Sheldon. Is the handle natural or synthetic?

I think that one is ivory. Very different to the knives of this type I remember as a kid, which were designed for working-men.
 
Very cool! I find the placement of the stop-pin quite interesting. Looks like it may pass through a curved slot in the tang....? Or something.
Thanks for posting this one!
 
That is pretty awesome Jason Thanks for adding it here.

Very nice, Vince! Love it! What luck, to find one in such minty-fresh condition!
And, I really like the flush joint as well. Something I've been keeping an eye out for, for years, but haven't found one to add to my bunch yet. Flush joints are a sign of 'old world' quality (IMO). :thumbup:
 
Outstanding Vince :thumbup:

It's taken me long enough to find a pic of one, I was beginning to think I'd imagined this pattern! :D

Absolutely superb knives - what two greats!
 
A recent addition and a favorite. Remington R3113 Moose 3 7/8". Will probably carry this one on occasion.

chouse, the bone on that Rem is gorgeous. Got any idea how old it is?
