Wooden Wednesday - Traditionals only please

Cattaraugus Cutlery Co., Little Valley, N.Y., U.S.A., circa 1886 to 1963, cocobolo wood handled swell end jack, 3 1/4 inches closed. The blades have half stops and this one is still snappy. :) This ole knife has a look that is a little smaller, however, similar to the GEC 15 frame.

I like the swedging on the front and back side of the blades.

Not only one of the best knives on this thread, but an immensely beautiful shot: the silver, steel, the weathered grain and the knife handles give an unforgettable image. More like a painting in complexity! Congratulations all round, Will
 
It's the City Knife. I was on the fence for a long time before I decided to try it out. I picked up a used micarta version extremely cheap, gave it a shot and loved it, and then resold it to pay for this one.
 
I am carrying my old Keen Kutter in Ebony.

A Hartford Cutlery Swell End Jack about which I know little to nothing... except that it is a very solid knife

The stamp on reverse tang of the master blade is only visible when the blade is at half-stop.
