Thanks Jeff. @herder was kind enough to give me the low down on this knife. It is called a Dogbone lobster and dates to 1900. The scales are either bone or french ivory but our resident experts pretty much ruled out actual ivory. The knife is quite small and yet very solid and hefty for it's size.
edit - I neglected to answer the rest of your question, it was distributed by Schmidt and Peters of New York and made by Vom Cleff and co of Germany. fullsizeoutput_b85.jpeg

I know you’re just joshing, but there are as many nice images as there are people like yourself in this Forum.

Thanks (and I have recanted by silliness . . at least as to knives).

Man, those are nice, Jeff. You, SteveC SteveC , and @kai76 have a lovely Cammie collection among your holdings, especially those that have seen honest duty.

Thanks a lot Jeff, the Wright's would fit in the case, but I pocket-carry them. I carry a tin with some tinder in the pouch. When I go out hiking, I like to make tea in the woods rather than carry a flask. I have a few different fire-kits

You are the kind of guy with whom I like to hike, Jack.

Stuart, I agree on the quality of the photos recently posted by two of our esteemed members, but I think you're overreacting; maybe holiday feasting has impaired your judgment! :eek::confused: But if you insist on going through with your rash plan, any chance you'd ship your trash can north?? ;)

Thanks, GT. After a brief crying spell, I decided against disposal and will re-double my efforts to meet the bar set on The Porch. Your quartet would make it near the top of anyone's EDC list.

Thanks, Jeff. That's my first and only feathered horn handle. Your Uncle Henry may seem "little", but it dwarfs the 108OT that I was totin' today. You have a very nice "little" knife, pal.

That is a very beautiful knife, my friend. You have shown several excellent knives over the past week and I want to thank you for sharing them. Without you, I would not have known about them or their makers.

Many thanks for your comment, in fact they are simple and friction lock, but these Portuguese knives are very functional and beautiful...;):thumbsup:

Salutary Sabbath Stag and Sable, Jack! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


Charismatic couple of Catts, Jeff! :thumbsup::cool::cool: I don't recall seeing a TL29 with jigged handles before; bone or synthetic?


That's a useful-looking knife, John! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup: For some reason, I just haven't taken to micarta so far, but yours look good with that houndstooth shield! ;):thumbsup:

I often go to the pearl pile for my Sunday totin' selection, but today we are going to a local farmers market to buy thick cut smoked bacon from a stall where our daughter-in-law works. These are my "going to market" totin' tokens. Bacon, baby, here I come!
