That's sensational stag,
Augie
!! 
But I'm intrigued by that blade "tip" and the "cutout" in the cover for it; I have NO idea what I'm looking at!
Any help you're willing to provide would be appreciated!
What a tremendous trio of stag 25s, Alan!
Sorry to hear they're splitting up; I can't imagine letting go of any of those three! (But I hang onto even my Rough Riders pretty tightly. 
)Speaking of Rough Riders, this is RR's take on a stag canoe. May not be classic stag, but I like it.
I also REALLY like this Colt stag muskrat.

I've gotten a lot from my time here on the porch Gary. It's never been my goal to monopolize anything. As someone said to me "come for the knives, stay for the friends."That's sensational stag,

"Savana" hunter made by Tonerini, Scarperia, Tuscany, Italy.
4 inch blade. Stag grips. Stainless blade.
Marked "Inoxid Tonerini Made in Italy" and "SAVANA Made in Italy."
Leather sheath marked "Made in Italy" stamped with a fleur de lis (giglio) the symbol of Florence.
Pretty much identical to the Puma "Hunters Pal".

Wow, what a beautiful Stag Saturday this has been! I had plans when I got up this morning. I was going to get a bunch of my Stags out and make some pictures. Alas, it was not meant to be. 
But I have had my new Sambar 78 Single with me all day. This thing is just begging for some Patina!

Ok, educate me. I'm sure you've told the story before but is this a spear point ground down and folded or is there some specific purpose for this unique blade???

That was quite a storm that just passed through! You can probably secure the engines and coast downstream on the floodwaters.

Thanks guys, it is an unusual knife, they are timber scribes, the end is a u shaped gouge and was used to mark lumber, timber, crates, etc. They were made by many English and American knife companies, this one probably dates from 1900 or so.

I don't really have traditionals, but I bought this recently. I guess to try them out? It was inexpensive, and in stag and 440C, which for some reason seemed intriguing to me at the price point. It is pretty well finished with things almost totally being flush except one corner of the stag to a bolster. It snaps closed and snaps to the half-stop, but is incredibly molassesy to fully open, there is no snap at all.
I like that it's a fairly long blade and fairly light weight, but realistically it does not ignite a passion in me for traditionals and will likely spend most of its life in a drawer.

So, like a pocket gouge. Makes sense. Boy, the things we needed to do before we invented the Sharpie!
