Beautiful!

That is a great looking knife, I just ordered a single blade one off the bay I hope it looks half that good!

 

[Pipeman]

Great barehead Dave, with nice crisp jigging. Congrats.

Best regards

Really like the jiggin' and warm color of that bone, kinda looks like somethin' from the 30s.

what kind of machine does this? I know its a jigging machine...obviously, but is it like a router or blades or what? That one is beautiful and crisp

 

[akadave2]

Thanks guys! I do love the bareheads...truly my favorite followed by any of the swell end jacks with bone covers. I have 4 of the GEC Barlows too...love those as well!

 

[Thalestin]

That is perfect

Very nice XXs, Dave!
I too find them hard to beat in terms of sheer visual pleasure!! Well jigged and dyed bone just makes the knife!

How about I add a simple Schrade Cut Co Barlow with peachseed, from the 30s-40s.

And some Schrade Walden goodness from ca. 1955.

I love the Schrade Bareheads too! Very nice stuff Charlie!

Case did nice Greenbone too!
Pre-WWII, ca. 1935.

Nice barehead, Dave!!
I had to search around for a barehead. Here's an Empire trapper type jack, with a nicely ground sawblade. This one is most likely the 1910 era, before WWI.
"Pickbone" is the term usually used to describe this stuff. Empire dyed a lot of bone, AND STAG, very black in those days. The dye seems to resist fading also.
