Stag Saturday - Let's See Some Traditional Stag!

These are a couple from my time at Bear & Son, many moons ago.

This mini trapper finds its way into my rotation occasionally.

This five blade stockman was a factory second that I picked up for a song. It doesn't get carried much. More of a conversation piece than a practical pocket knife.

#81 Stag Moose. Two-spring knife, I dug this one out to compare it to my #81 City Stock!!81 Stag Moose 2.jpg81 Stag Moose 1.jpg
It's heavier, of course, but still a nice carry!! Made in 2017, it's getting up there!!
Stag was good in those days!!

Like this very much indeed. Nice use of screw construction (which is a thing dating back to the c19th much as old fogeys would want to believe otherwise :rolleyes: ) and very attractive Stag slabs. Notable too is the impressive line-up between spine & spring, blade opens straight out with no droop or 'cant' to it. Of course, with some patterns/blades this cant is intentional or desirable. Here it is straight superb :thumbsup::cool: Great example.

Could you give us some dimensions and steel please?

Thanks, Will

I'm not sure about the steel. I picked this up secondhand.
Open it measures just over 6", and has a cutting edge just over 2.5"
