The " Roosters " are crowing for the " Farmers"

Lyle, the Ericksons are beauties. I feel privileged to have gotten to behold their beauty in person! :)
 
Outstanding knives, all! Thanks for posting pics and offering your observations & wisdom. Stunning knives, each one!!

Next comes farmer jack royalty. I had asked Charlie C if he would bring his Ken Erickson to GEC to allow me to examine it's beauty firsthand. You know I'm kinda interested in all farmers jacks! I grin

Upon setting up Charlie told me to place it along side it's sister for display, which I gladly did. When packing up, Charlie said he had thought about it and that knife probably belonged with it's sister in the farmers jack collection,would I like to purchase it. Would I!

I had bit my tongue all the time Charlie owned it,as I know he admires his Ken Erickson knives as much or more than any knife he owns.Luckily I had purchased a Ken rendition of a Remington jack that I could include in the deal to get the farmers jack, so I didn't feel too opportunistic.

Thanks again my friend. Here they are:

Absolutely a page carry over picture right there Lyle...STUNNING KNIVES:eek::cool::thumbup:
 
Thanks my friends, I've been blessed.

The blades on the ivory still enthrall me, as does the entire knife. A pinnacle of my collection, not that the stag is not captivating.
 
Wonderful thread. Intriguing pattern. And just the other day, I think the wife mentioned I should find an additional pattern to follow/collect. :D

You all took on an ambitious effort. It seemed everybody was enjoying themselves. I think you had the tall lass that's a BB player? If there's a next time I'm planning on photos with captions and maybe a voice recorder.

The attachment's not coming up on my end,but I'm pretty sure I know what it is.Smiling

Paul,It's not with reverence,but disdain in his reference. Smokey Mountain Knife Works. Capitalism by the aforementioned which destroyed the integrity of the Schrade collection,albeit allowing him the purchase.

Ah. I've never done business with them - they just never seem to have anything I want, I've heard several stories about the business though. Thanks for clearing that up Lyle.

Mr Fry, do have an image of spring and liner setup on that fibestos schrade rooster comb?
 
Great pictures Steve,the colors look good on those. Thanks for joining in the slowly growing little band of Farmer Jacks.

Just real cool,glad you got them.
 
Lyle-left you a vm, don't know if it's of interest, but does have bearing on this thread and your sig line.
Thanks, neal70(the odds of two guys spelling Neal the correct;) way are astronomical btw)
 
Thanks for the heads up on the WTB signature,I've already got a hit from neal70. Thanks Neal
