Really full Ulster, lambertiana! Mighty fine!!
 
That is a great thread that Knarfeng sited on pruning knives, but unfortunately, about half the pictures are gone thanks to our friends at P. B.
Pruning knives are often overlooked, but there are many wonderful examples to explore from common to extraordinary.
Here is a pre WWII French pruner with two cutting blades, one saw blade, and a folding ivory spud at the back end of the handle.

That’s a Stunning example Herder.
We should link this up with the “ Prune Big or Go Home “ Thread so either doesn’t get lost?

That's a neat little knife there, and would you look at that little clip blade?? I love the exaggerated lines and belly on it!

Some really decent knives on here, thanks. But what happened to the OP and his collection??;)
 
Fantastic Stag on that one s-k. Shadow too! Seems to me that deer in the century past (and before) must have had a different diet or even DNA that they could produce such incredibly grooved antlers?

Thanks, Will
