Kevin
That Ulster Cattle my friend is mind Blowing! Love that Knife and everything about it! Would love to see the flip side of the Punch at some stage - Whew!

Gev!!!! What a Great ol' Pruner - Oh man just look at that decent Swage!

I too would like to see that Punch

Ask and you shall receive sires

Great cattle knife Kevin. Here's an HSB stockman with a punch that still has the blueing on it. 3 1/8 closed.

Very NICE Mike, look at that amazing Punch, combine that with the gorgeous bone, badge shield and blade etch...Sweet

Thanks Paul. The seller said it was made by NYK Co.

Your Challenge is the closest looking to Dwight's, but I was thinking you had one with the same shield as his too? It's still would not be definitive as to maker by shield alone. Thank you for posting your beauties as it's always great to see them !!!!!

Going through some things I realized that I do in fact have an old HSB with the same shield. This is a three blade whittler with the Rev-O-Noc tang stamp, I got it at a large yard sale involving many yards in Niles California for a princely sum of $7:

Deal of the Century on a Grail knife in my eyes !! I knew you had one

 

[Campbellclanman]

Mike my friend - that Stockman is a beautiful example!

Lambertiana- as our friend Gev said - what a deal!!!

 

[waynorth]

That laminated tang on the punch is NYK's style, Mike!! A beauty!!
Nice score on the Rev-o-noc, Lambertiana!!
A hand-clap for that Claus, Kevin!!

Thanks Duncan and Charlie.

Great stockman Mike, I echo Duncan’s comments, Just killer!

Beautiful knives guys. Mike love the etch on that knife very classy!!

 

[Mike Robuck]

Thanks guys. Too bad my fingerprints are all over the etch. I was hoping "Hughes" would be somehow related to Howard Hughes companies, but so far it looks like a law firm in Texas.

Howard Hughes preferred his knives to be made from wood

Here is my latest pickup, it's not a folder as you can see. My first Scagel, I've wanted one of these for as long as I can remember. Lucky to have gotten it.
I got the knife yesterday and it is nicer then I thought. It's 11 1/4" over all and the blade is 6 3/8" measuring the top of the blade. Very small amount of pitting at the cutting edge on both sides but the rest is just staining. I love the darn thing!!

[Mike Robuck]

Wow! Major score Mike. Congrats. Got a close up of the blade mark?

Nice profile on that. Looks like it could do some real work

What's not to love! Great score! Did it come with a sheath?
