***** CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST & PAGE (This Is The End) *****
It's been awhile since the last group pictures of these beasties have been taken.
In the larger group pictures (NOT the size of the pictures), I tried to use all the
same animal images per group. Not by the actual blade/tool pattern, not by
overall handle pattern(s) and not by the tang stamps. This is all of them as of
this posting.
Captions, if any, are on the BOTTOM of the corresponding picture(s).

This morning, the zoo welcomes it's most recent resident. It's a USA, 2 blade, "Deer Head" handle pocket knife. It didn't need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Yesterday, this pocket knife became the most recent resident in the zoo. It is yet another, MADE IN GERMANY, 1 blade, 4 tool, "Deer Head" pocket knife. It is tang stamped "MADE IN GERMANY." It did need some cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Another nice addition to the Zoo Skip. I've come to think of this pattern of handle as the Small Faced 6 point deer with single oak cluster.

This morning, this pocket knife became the latest resident in the zoo. It's another Imperial, 2 blade, 3 11/16" closed, "Longhorn Steer Head" pocket knife. I cleaned it up a little, took some pictures and here it is.

This morning, the zoo welcomes its most recent arrival. It is another Imperial, 2 blade, "Longhorn Steer" handle pocket knife. I gave it a very minor cleaning, took a few pictures and here it is.

***** The closed measurement of this pocket knife and of the previously posted pocket
knives of the exact same pattern or style is just a hair over 3 1/4", NOT 3 11/16" *****

This morning, the zoo welcomed its most recent resident. It's another Imperial, 2 blade, 3 3/8" closed, "Deer Head" handle pocket knife. The main blade has the serrated or wonda edge. I cleaned it up a bit, took some pictures and here it is.
