All About Pocket Knives

Very nice!

Picked up this stag 4 blade cattle knife over the weekend, don't have it in hand yet but I thought it was interesting and uncommon enough to post sellers pictures,
Looking in Sellens book it appears to be on page 220, listed as a K44833 and only listed as coming in genuine stag. Will post more pictures when it arrives.

Great pickup, John! Looking forward to seeing your pictures of it.

Nice knife, John.
They look like full blades.
Good looking skins.

Beautiful KKs, all..

Here's an E.C. Simmons ebony barehead jack.. I had a new main blade welded on just in front of the tang stamp. Good walk and talk, no side play. I love the scales on this one..

Great knives posted guys. John what era is your cattle knife? Dimitri has said and you don’t see many Walden made knives that are stag.

Lyle, I'm not sure of age, all blades tang stamped E.C. Simmons KeenKutter. I've found in general stag on early American made knives is hard to find, I do have this Walden made jack in stag.

All I can say for sure is that it's pre-1940.. I used to have a different tang stamp chart that differentiated E.C. Simons era tang stamps by the lettering and other subtle differencs including the wedge in the logo.. I can't find it right now..

Cool chart and barehead, Ryan.

Nice stag and very desirable pattern, John.

Great to see your post, Lyle.

Another dandy John!

Thanks for all the nice comments guys

Showed up today and it is a very nice knife, pocket worn and well used but not abused, someone really loved this knife, still great snaps and pulls on all blades, has real beefy springs. All blades tang stamped but the main is mostly worn away, tang sits low in frame and would have rubbed. Pocket worn stag in good shape, surface crack on mark side that does not go all the way through.

That is a beauty, John! Great stag.

Nice find John! I really like it Buddy!

Tom, Dan, thanks guys, I'm really liking this knife, may even carry it some.

JohnR, you seem to find some really knice ones.

John
