Thank you very much Jeff !!That old Schrade bone certainly has an Old Friend look to it
Wonderful old horn knife, Harry.
I hope you didn’t beat up the proprietor too badly.![]()
Nice finds.I actually carried these yesterday and today : The Northfield is a 610211 Serial # 20 and the old knife is a Horn Covered Schmachtenberg Bros. from Solingen 1887 -- 1939 which I watched for 6 months in an Antique Mall .
The Stamping on the Schmachtenberg blade is an AXE . I have never sharpened it but it came to me pretty sharp . The Horn Covers may have shrunk just a little . The Liners are Brass and the Blades are carbon . The Northfield is one that I had wanted for a while , because of the UNXLD stamping on all 4 Bolsters , and I got it off of the Exchange for a very good price . It is One of 35 Serialized pieces and the Serial # is also on the Coping Blade . It also has Steel Liners .

Another wonderful old knife.
My Great Grandson has dibs on that top one.
Looking forward to the finished quivers !!!!Two equal ends today, Boker Magnum scout and Churchill. Put the Churchill sheep foot blade to use today in the shop after work, cutting leather.
Making 8 plains style arrow quivers as Christmas gifts, 4 for my son in laws and 4 for grandkids.

No, I didn’t actually use the saw to cut it down, but I did use it to trim a couple branches off the bottom when I got home.

For Stagurday, I carried my Case bonestag stockman which my Dad gave me several years ago. It's a 'memory' knife and a joy to carry.

I have one of those too and while it does not have the association yours does, they are super knives. Bonestag 6.5 is the grip
