John, when you look through this thread are you always evaluating which ones you could alter and which one not? I'm still enjoying mine, thanks.Lansky1 wrote:fit and finish on yours is top notch !

Re: Moose pattern
Funny you mention that Floyd ... I've been looking at Case moose knives ever since I worked up yours & the only ones with the nail nick not too far forward which could be fashioned into a sheepsfoot would be the ones from the 70's & early 80's ... unfortunately, those ALWAYS without exception bring premium prices. I'll keep looking for an old beater with good bones that I can restore and convert to one like yoursdoglegg wrote:John, when you look through this thread are you always evaluating which ones you could alter and which one not?

Re: Moose pattern
There sure are a lot of good looking mooses/meese/moose in this thread. I don't think I own one of the pattern, but this thread is making me consider one as my next knife.
OLDE CUTLER your "built from scratch" moose is exceptional. I really like your choice of blades and your wedging.

I have this Catt #22339,"Moose" in a store display so I'll post the catalog pic. It's a big, heavy duty piece. J.O'.

You reckon that was the individual price when the catalog was printed? Some of the catalogs showed price per dozen.

Re: Moose pattern
TF: Make it a gross! I bought the Catt store-case about 30 years ago. The buttons were already attached but don't know what knives went where. I just filled it on my own. Took a couple years. J.O'.

Re: Moose pattern
I put two broken kamp kings together as a....moose? It has two springs and two spear blades, I'm not 100% certain that it's not more of a muskrat, so my friend and I who also made one call it the Mooserat. I cut serrations in and painted the clamshell scales. Also filled in the hollow with epoxy steel stick.


That's my Etsy store where I sell old knives and sometimes handmade knife accessories to support my knife habbit. Thanks for looking my friend.

Re: Moose pattern
Only one other in the world like it so far as I know. Until I get around to making more that is. Actually the next might be a harness jack.

Thanks dude. The paint job isn't quite what i imagined it would be but it's ok. The serrations on the one were done to cover a big whammo right on the cutting edge.
