SK, Ahh, now you're pulling out the Blue Bone Schrade - trying to make us jealous?? It's working! Beautiful Schrade Stockman (the others are nice too!) OH
 
I have come up with what may be the finest of all the hundreds of stockmen I've ever had. It is a Fight'n Rooster Frank Buster Celebrated Cutlery "Black Widow" prototype, in the box. Some of the most magnificent bone I've ever seen, with deep, gnarly jigging and a rich dark brown color, and what appears to me to be domed and spun pins. The knife is from 1978 and is mint in every way. Enjoy the pics!

Thank you, Michael, I regard it the same. The edges are all dull as can be, so this prototype was never meant to be used, and has certainly never been sharpened. It will remain a safe queen with me.
 
I really like those Schatt & Morgan's with their extra pin and exaggerated profile on the handle.
 
^ That's a real beauty S-K :thumbup:

I'll just throw in this humble Taylor's Eye Witness :)





 
A new beauty, my first knife (other than a sak) with more than 2 blades... just got it and haven't had a chance to sharpen it up yet.

 
Heard last week that Queen was discontinuing the zebra wood line and after all the one's shown in this thread, I just had to have one. Really a sweet knife and know that this knife will see lots of pocket time.

Here it is pictured with my destructo work knife. These yellow Cv's are just mean and will really take a beating. I also got it kinda clean.

Thanks for keeping this thread alive, my Stockman brothers and sisters! Beautiful knives!
 
I've been really impressed with queens d2. I think a medium stockman in zebra wood would be a great companion to my cattle king!
 
Wonderful bone on that example s-k! Rather like Jeff's Rooster.

Here's a Schatt Woodsman from the Heritage series
