I went to the local gun show, and almost bought/traded for a Bulldog trapper. Jigged bone, carbon steel blades. Superb walk and talk. (I did sell a Great Eastern furtaker trapper).
Over the years, I have seen Parker and Bulldog knives here and there at flea markets. I have a Standing Rock Cutlery with the Bulldog logo on the other side of the blade stamp, my only example (Improved Order of Redmen SFO). This one may have been made in the USA or Germany. A clasp knife, it was made specifically for the Baltimore lodge.
The knife I saw this afternoon had to have been made in Germany. Many of the Parker knives were made in China, Taiwan and Japan, or so I have heard/read. As far as I know, many of them are from the 70's to 80's? Are they still in production? I see them advertised in Knife World.
In addition to information about them, I'd like to see some pics of your Parker and Bulldog folders and fixed blades, old timey please.
I will work on getting a pic of my Standing Rock up. My buddy was the Sachem of the Baltimore lodge, and member of a few other lodges in PA. He was the first American Indian sachem to boot.
