Wow! Absolutely gorgeous.

Cool looking knife - care to share some details on it?

It is a custom piece, I have not seen one quite like it. A guy I know who makes custom sheaths had it and sold it to me, he knows the smith who made it. It has chisel grind, overall 13 cm, blade 5 cm. I wrapped the handle with cotton cord soaked in epoxy and made the sheath.

Carrying a slim stockman helps you lose weight.

Back to the Western 062 Folding Hunter on the belt.

Pocket carry will be the Western 742 Stockman.

... tho this pre-1939 Robeson 622110 Large Jack is tempting me.


Please have a fun & relaxing weekend.

Nice pictures !

Thank you Mr C.!

Thrifty with a little mod on the screwdriver. I kinda like the geometry of the blade along with the slight “belly”. Now to get it sharp!View attachment 2693438

I have not trolled the ‘bay for knives lately, but a few years ago, I came across a few Electrians and Hawkbills that had been modded like that. Some well done, some not so. Bought only the bad ones, so I could mod the mods just for fun. Kept one or two, gave one away.

Looks like you’re on your way to a well done mod. I like the shape of your edge.

I wonder if that beauty is one of the c.1963 - 1969 RJR Prince Albert promotion knives that cost under $3.⁰⁰ (excluding the cans of Prince Albert)?
If memory serves, they had the "Old Timer" shield.
(I think the same age Coppenhagen promotional knives (also made by Ulster) had a "Coppenhagen" shield.)

The RJR Prince Albert knives were an "Ulster Old Timer". A "Scout Knife" was one of the four options available.

Not all Ulster's made during that period were Old Timer's.

You are indeed correct Steve ... I have the Prince Albert set ...

Oh no! That reminds me of one of the old phone gags we used to pull as kids. We'd call a store & ask if they had Prince Albert in a can. They'd say "yes", and we'd say, "then you better let him out" and hang up.

Yeah, we didn't have internet, or computers.

First foray into the world of Richlite. I will give it a as a delrin substitute for Farm and Field. But…definitely not gonna pass for me as a Micarta replacement. Great material for the right application for sure .

Almost hesitant to post this one again, but it’s the one I’m hanging out with around the house today. Pretty much this one all week. I think I might touch the edge up a bit.
