Thank you very much Bob . Another Stag to get closer to my Stag Goal . Really not too bad of a knife that was made in 1980 .I would call it a sweet catch, Harry.
Why not call it a Gunstockman?Started out the day carrying this Bulldog Canoe to coffee with friends .

Then when I got home I had to mow and carried the Case full sized Wharncliffe trapper which is 4 & 1/8 " long and then the NKCA 1980 knife showed up right on time and after the rain . This is the best I can do for photos for now .

The new knife is a Kissing Crane . Some call it a Stockman and some call it a Gunstock . It has a Pen Blade where a Spey Blade would normally be for a Stockman . I will call it a Revers Gunstock Stockman LOL .

Thanks brother !Violet is looking great as usual.
So, let me start by saying, my wife is 100% of Irish descent.
Some years after my wife's mother died, her father married his wife's cousin, Patty. Patty's brother is Bill. That made Bill, who is 92 and happens to live near us, both my wife's 2nd cousin once removed (I think), and her step uncle. We call him "Uncle Bill". At 92, Bill is still a caution, and any conversation with him is likely to be lengthy and delve into many topics spanning many decades, even if the beginning topic is his next project for his house.
I said all that to say that Bill's wife's ashes were interred today. We didn't know her extremely well, but we knew her enough to know she was a very nice lady, who was much loved by her church group. I carried a Case mini-Wharncliffe copperhead.
