That's nice; Much better than the grind Buck uses now.

Schrade era? Did Schrade make the buck stockman knives? I thought Camillus did.

Schrade began to make them, but then Camillus was given the contract. The change came about because the Schrades were difficult to fix under warranty, whereas, the Camillus version was constructed to be more warranty friendly.( history of buck knives chap.10).

Bunny with an Akubra, the 1 in my avatar. Seems appropriate as Akubras are made from rabbit fur.

Two favorites.

Small Rounder Thursday.

Love seeing that one Gary.

In a rush to leave this morning and grabbed these 2 BF knives. Took them out to look them over and realized they are similar but so different at the same time. Not a bad pair to accompany me today on this cold day at work. Won't use them much today but still fun to fondle lol. Have a great day everyone.

Jiki - Actually, that's a very nice piece of stag. The figuring/canyons/crevices/pattern/bark, etc. is even throughout the length of the cover. Even without the dark coloring associated with most stag, it's eye catching.

 

[Angry Waiter]

Thanks brother

Thank you and yes, I am being sarcastic to those who must have a certain set of criteria for their stag. As you so eloquently stated the characteristics that make each piece of stag unique with it's own personality. If one opens one's mind to the interesting aspects to the piece.

Thanks Todd. As we have discussed, the best trades are the ones where both parties walk away happy and I think that was the case here.
