Thank you.screened porch nice, a vintage one! Sounds like a great knife.
Seller said it was uncarried and unused, and it certainly has no sharpening scratches. I expect I'll change that.
I always wanted one, because I saw a picture and thought that's the perfect blade shape. And It has nostalgia value because they used to sell the deer-foot-handled ones at a petting zoo called Deer Forest. Probably Olsens. Mom wasn't letting me have a sheath knife or a dead animal part. To be fair, Dad wasn't eager to let me have a sheath knife either, because he'd had to pull one out of his big brother's thigh after a war-dance accident.
I'm hoping to go deer-hunting for the first time this Fall, and my nicker will be with me. (And my stag KaBar folding hunter, and my Schrade 165OT, and my Schrade H-15.)

Maybe I could get away with Lederhosen at my grizzly eminence of years.

Those Ancients are so cool. I vote @meako to be a very cool guy.
As long as it will be ebony stag with a federal propeller shield.I thought that was the definition of the perfect Forum knife.
Sawcut wormgroove?
And the color is dreamy.If we all get to go to the Badger Knife Show next year, please bring that Crookes!
For inspection purposes, of course.
Good luck on the hunt, may it serve you well. Like you said, that blade shape is very useful. Jagdnickers have a nice aesthetic to them.

Outstanding pic Dylan, with a stunning pair of knives
Thank you, Jack!
Gorgeous.
- your photos, Dylan, are becoming like photos of a Bose knife.............I don't have to read to discover who made/took 'em
Thank you, Paul, for the kind compliments. I have been finding that my better photos are ones where I don't overthink it and am more spontaneous. The fire lit pictures were certainly not planned at first but I think they worked out. (That fire was being prepared to slow roast a beef tri-tip over a bed of coals - turned out rather fine.)
Handsome pairings by both of you fellas this morning.
The two I chose for today include my newly acquired Winchester and a ultra smooth and perfect HJ-10.
A fine pair of knives but I particularly like that Winchester - very nice.
Hartshead Barlow, '44 Gunstock, and a wee Linder Jagdnicker sent to me by Andi @Humppa
An excellent assortment today, Jack, that Jagdnicker intrigues me though. I may have to look into those a bit more.
These two for me today.
Way to go Dan! Just great!Today I will be toting 3 lambs and 3 sourdough loaves
