Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
Awesome knives there Joe! Something about an old wood handled jack being so utilitarian but still surviving in such great condition flips my switch.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
Some spectacular knives, thanks for sharing.
These are my only qualifiers, A Case 31 and a Union, I think. The tang stamp on the Union is faint.

Joe, that Thomaston looks great!
Steve, the Case has beautiful colored handles. I could eat it right up.
Fantastic knives posted by all!

Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
Thanks BT and Dan. I did remember I had another bareheaded jack, its my EDC, a Xmas gift from my wife a few years ago. I guess Barlows count? It isn't vintage though.

Here's an old Lawton Cutlery Co. Chicago. 3 1/2". 1/2 stop and strong spring.
Very nice old knife.

Re: Vintage Barehead Jacks
I hear you Joe. I got my income taxes done a couple days after I bid on that and when I saw what I owed Uncle Sam I had to suspend all further bidding for a bit.

Absolutely! We've got to keep those politicians comfy. If they had to make their own money most of them would starve to death.
