Roger you’ve been very busy posting today. I really enjoyed your sleeveboard wittler. I have one by KeenKutter that needs two pen blades to complete it. Hope to find them someday. Steve B.

I love that Jumbo Sleeveboard, those are awesome knives in my book!
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Two more beauties, Roger! I think the jumbo whittler is a fairly rare pattern? Very interesting deep swage and short match striker pull.

I think it is a fairly early HSB.I believe it is a New York Knife made.

Picked up a Hibbard Spencer&Bartlett Barlow, matched it up to an Ulster I have in the collection, looks like this one made by Ulster.

Here is a HSB & Co. folding Hunter. I was attracted to the pick bone handles! No shield here blocking the pick bone view It is in very good condition showing use but the blade is pretty much full. Has enthusiastic walk and talk with a wicked snap open and close.

Very nice knife, Lloyd.

Very nice, handles are beautiful. It has a slim look in that 'overhead' shot. I like your description and use of adjectives, and I am being seriousDuffer wrote: ↑Mon Apr 13, 2020 12:24 am Here is a HSB & Co. folding Hunter. I was attracted to the pick bone handles!

Picked up a Hibbard Spencer&Bartlett easy open jack with a fat spear in mint condition. I have the same pattern in a Camillus and the HSB is a dead ringer other than the bone, I find early Camillus bone can be many different jigging patterns, I think I have 5 early Camillus knives now and not one has the same jigging.
Re: Old HIBBARD, SPENCER & BARTLET---OVB---Knives
Wow John very nice, almost twins, nothing not to like about either one
