Mr. gsmith, that is some beautiful bone on that Beaver Tail but that little StaSharp is the one that captures my eyes and heart. Great pick ups.

Why thank you doglegg! It is a pickup from our mutual friend kootenayjoe and I will detail it in another thread. The GEC is also from Roland. He does have a fine eye for knives.

Just got these this week. They are prototypes made for J Russell Green River Works in 1977. The etching is done by Aurum Etchings. Per Sam Shortes of Aurum Etchings there were less than six made of each knife and there was no production run made. Sam Shortes stated that these were utility knives and the collector market was not there for this type of knife. I think there might be a third one out there on the Hunter model. There was a set of three made by Russell in 1976 (Dadley, Buffalo Skinner and Hunter) to commemorate the Bicentennial and "The Knives that Won the West", these two came in the 1976 individual boxes.

Jon, I love that pattern and that is a great knife. I have one but not in red. Great pick up.

Kulrich, a couple of awesome pick ups. Good luck on that third one.

Heckuva Saturday!

What's the story behind that 72 clone?

Jporter1974 · Post by **Jporter1974** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 3:34 am

I know..believe me, I know..that's what is called a itchy trigger finger..

it's an 863 from the bay, with what appears to be the tang buffed slap off of it..

richard · Post by **richard** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 3:57 am

all the blades have been ground down, no tip on the main blade, tobacco blade half size,the other sharpened as to a point.
are the scales delrin or bone?
stiil a nice EDC if the price was right?

Jporter1974 · Post by **Jporter1974** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 7:43 am

I think the only thing you left out is rusted..

..bone or delrin..

..nevertheless, I've done alot worse with 25 bucks.

Jon, half that many would have been a great day. An 863 is on my list as well. And what a great looking bunch of bone on the other ones.

What knife are you talking about? Is it Jon's 863?

That looks like an ulster main blade from their version of the 863. Same knife essentially, both were made in the same ellenville factory. That could explain why it's not stamped since it's in schrade clothing.

picked up this Schrade Texas Jack with torched stag handles recently. Appears to be built on a 8ot frame.

Nice ones, bigbore. I have the same S&M with a spear blade and I really like that knife. It is almost too pretty to carry.

Was that half dollar part of your pick up stuff. I have never found one that I could pull the trigger on. Great knives and great coin.
