There's just something about a Bareheaded Jack

New or old, spear points, lamb's feet, whatever, I just love bareheaded jacks!
Let's see them!

Can you tell me what TIW means on your GEC radio knife? I looked at GEC website and could not find an answer. That is a great looking knife, BTW.

Thank you.

Stuck at work today (again), but I've got company -- the kestrels are back at my windowsill, and in honor of spring I picked some springy-colored knives. Thanks to Brian (Mr_Badexample) for the Viper, deliverered today.

Glad it includes single-blades even if it started off with Jacks. Some fine knives shown, as far as I'm concerned it's Barehead all the way! GEC liner-lock 73 in their Bonestag.

TIW is for Titusville (not Tidioute) Iron Works, signifying the 1095 blades. 440C Stainless blades are stamped Cyclops Steel Works, or just Cyclops.

I thought it was for Titusville Iron Works?

I like bareheads a lot more than knives with end caps. I'll start with one modern


And a few oldies

You are right, r8shell, I stand corrected. Sorry for the brain fade. I corrected my original post as well.
