Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
Yes this has been quite a show. Thanks for showing. I too was thinking it would be nice to see them in a magazine or some format to just flip through them.

Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
The coil was to crimp the cap on the fuse I believe. Not sure about the tool. Don't know anything about using it.
Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
Whatever it's for. Very cool and thanks for showing us

Amazing Mike, a co-op with the etch! that is awesome. As are so many knives here. This is a feel good thread. I sold a bunch of knives recently so these are almost all my bare head jacks. A Walden, Schrade and Schrade Walden.

Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
Thanks Greg. Appreciate that
Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
James I am with Greg on that comment about the easy open Schrade! WOW, that is just a phenomenal knife!!
That is a Schrade collection foundation piece
What does the primary blade tang stamp look like? Is it a curved Schrade tang stamp?

Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
Some beautiful knives being posted by all ... Been offline for awhile now so just just seeing the last 4 or so pages of this thread - some real nice knives ...
Here's an American Shear & Knife Co - 3 5/16" - a nice Boys Knife... The master blade has a crocus mark side finish and the pile side still has remnants of a glaze finish which I had read was not unusual for blade finishing..
