Stag Saturday - Let's See Some Traditional Stag!

17311957377433284297039014864804.jpgthis bull brand stag was made in the freidrich olbertz factory in Germany for jim lauderman ,who at the time was the salesman for frank buster of fighting rooster.its a nice size stockman,im not sure how many patterns Jim had made but most of the stockmans look identical to the ones frank buster had made over the years.
 
How are they? I missed the boat on them.
The two examples I got (Stag & a Maple) are good. The blades are CPM154 steel & centered with no blade play. The action was a little gritty at first but has smoothed out after a cleaning & use. They were made by Queen right before they closed their doors, around 2017 I believe. I have heard some are hit & miss with the quality though.
