Thanks Gev, but please, no need to go through all the inconvenience! I was just wondering, since I've seen quite a bit of those smaller teardrop jacks from Robeson, often they have an endcap and most seem to be 3 3/8 closed. I was just curious if this one's too. I have one that's just coming back from Glennbad's. It had those black composite scales, but they were a bit beat up and I don't like synthetic materials, so I had him do some of his magic. Mine is 3 3/8ths, which makes it smaller than a GEC 15 but it's bulkier and just the perfect size for my hand. Yours have some great jigged bone, but they must be older than mine, which I think is from the 50s or so ...
in this case it does look to my eye like an Ulster and very similar to the one Herder posted: pin locations, wood quality, bolster shape, nail nick / long pull design and the swedge work on the mark side of your knife is a little wore down but the pile side swedge looks identical to Herder's. Is your jack a 3-1/2" or 3-3/4"?
