Rytstuf asked me to post this as he can't post photos yet. He will monitor this thread. Thanks.

 
Yes, a knife made for Taylor for a customer like SMKW using the Schrade trademarks purchased at the bankruptcy auction in 2004.
 
does anyone care that the "Dead Man's Hand" is not correct? it is show 2 Aces, 2 eights and a 0! ah taylor you have to love 'em.
 
I think the "O" may be a "Q".

The Adams Museum in Deadwood has a display that claims to be the actual Bulldog Squeezers Playing Cards held by Hickok (ace of diamonds, ace of clubs, eight of hearts, eight of spades, and the queen of hearts
 
just googled this and got this interesting factoid!
"You've settled on one of the few bits of Western lore that has some basis in fact. Wild Bill was indeed holding black aces and eights when he was plugged by Jack McCall on the fateful day of August 2, 1876, in the charming suburb of Deadwood, deep in the Dakota Territory. Bill's fifth card was the deuce of spades, which must have made for a pretty grim-looking hand. I'm surprised he didn't commit suicide."
