Paul, your 8813 is a beauty. There is a story on that particular one which I might tell you someday. Meanwhile, I am going to cheat a little bit, because this one is not old, but it was deliberately made to pay homage to the old ones and I am deeply grateful to own it.

And here is another 8813, of another color, you might say.

Picked up this High Carbon Steel USA which I think was made by Camillus 1930's to 40's for Sears. Close to mint with beautiful bone.

Here's a XX era (1940-65) 53047. I've had it for several years but there's always been something about it that doesn't seem quite right.The scales look like it's had a ton of pocket time but the blades are near mint. What do you Guys think?

Just reading back through this thread and realized I hadn't posted any old Stockmans. These 2 are pictured as my avatar. They are both Queen #49s, they have the 1958-60 tang stamp, both are handled with real Winterbottom bone, one has been used just a little more than the other.

This Cattaraugus just came in. 3 7/8 inches. It is somewhat tired, but the pearl is PERFECT. I am liking this old one.

[Edit} Sorry for the omission.... but I meant to add a comment about all the great lookin' examples of Stockmans posted here. ::tu::

Well I've posted these in the brand specific forums before... but I think they'll get more views here & perhaps a little more appreciation too....
First one is my favorite ::ds:: .... despite all the spit n polish.... its an 80+ year old Schrade Cutlery Co described in their catalog as a "Premium Stockman" № 8803G
10052

....and here it is again with its direct successor.... a 2013 Canal Street Cutlery Stockman made for A.G.Russell №34 of 200. Sorry to those just looking for oldies.... but I like showing these two together. :D
10054 10055

.... I just posted these over on the Parker forum.... but they are probably the most patriotic Stockmans around.... made by Schrade for Parker's "Founding Fathers" bicentennial series as each knife is named for: George Washington [cream], John Adams [blue], Thomas Jefferson [green], Patrick Henry [white], Nathan Hale [red]
10236 10237

.... and another Parker / Schrade venture during the bicentennial was the Thirteen Colonies series.... I only have one so far....
10199 10198
'til later....

Been scrolling through this thread again, enjoying all the wonderful pictures. Makes one proud to carry a Stockman's Knife! Here is a 1950's Junior Cattle Knife I found in Fort Worth TX earlier this year - it gets a lot of carry (alternates with my 1981 Case 6318). OH
