[FRJ]

Thanks Lee

Joe,I don’t know what’s with the larger frame, thanks.

Oh, you'll have one sooner or later..

[JohnR]

Congrats Lyle, glad you got it, that's one of those I doubt we will ever see another of.

Absolutely awesome knife Lyle. Glad it's yours. That had to be a joy to get!!!

A catalog cut of Thomas Turners version. I would think there are others. A Clements , which I suspect has DNA from Turners ,whether factory or one of the Mills trained from Turner. The better stag one has two pen blades ,the other two have a budding and pen secondaries. They are also very early stainless.

You have 3 other FJ whittlers ... Those are sweet ...

Amazing, Lyle!

Thanks Lee and John, I’ve been blessed. The two stag Clements were given me.

John Lloyd gave me the unused one, which is etched stainless throughout. I suppose the other stag was etched at one time, it’s stainless too, and was the first I’d seen. It was given to me by Mike Losicco. Within a few months I had two more, go figure.

I’ll post a picture of the etched blade on the other one when I get back to the computer.You can see it here:

Nice ones Lyle.

Thanks Charlie, you’ve been a big help. I still haven’t forgotten about that Montgomery Ward FJ.

Here’s the etch on the stag Clements:

[JohnR]

Those Clements are stunning knives Lyle, your collection is amazing.

Added this unused Wostenholm last week,

That’s a better ground blade (profile) than the etched one I have. I should have bought it, but I have a couple at least.

The more I see it the more I like it.

Thank you Lee, most of them go to my wife, I'm afraid of beatings otherwise.

... My wife enjoys looking at mine (though she often says "don't you have one of those already?")... but I don't encourage collecting... for good reason ...

Believe me, it gets real expensive collecting for 2.

End of the line after 4 years trying to collect all the covers on the Queen 2009 Farmers jacks, finally landed the MOP and it's a beauty. 100 made in each cover.
