Whats up Willie,
its PROBABLY a Olcut , Union Cut. Co.,Vikeing or kabar (which is all the same) also could be a western states but probably isnt. The pull should be farther down the blade.
Send me that E.C.Simmons pearl whittler,,I dont think you really need it. ::tu::

Brett, those are great. The last group especially blows me away. Is that some sort of auto on the right? I wish you had time to show a few by themselves. Open. And stuff...

I posted the three Robeson Coke Bottles or Fiddle Backs, as that was what I thought Rig Welder was requesting.

As other patterns have been added, I'll further dilute the concentration of the soup. ::nod::

They are all outstanding knives, but that stag handle one has to be rare.

You just don`t see too many old Robeson`s with Stag :)

Thanks, MB.

I don't know if you mean the gnarly pebbled English stag or the other.

There was, however, a very nice stag handled version of the 872 on Ebay last week. Starting bid was $90.00. The knife looked about mint. Full blade w etch. One handle was somewhat plain, the other quite nice.

It did not get a single bid. Sign of the times, I guess.

This is the only one I have left. Don't know if it really qualifies as a folding hunter. I am only calling it that based on it's size and the shot shell pullers. Twelve inches long open with C.16 and C.12 pullers. Italian I think based on the stamp - AQUILA. Horn handles.

I only have a couple. The one on the right is a Kabar 1184. The knife below that is a Schrade U.S.A. 250T. The Schrade was missing a handle on the opposite side when I bought it, so I made one out of corian. It turned out not bad but I think it looks better with the traditional Schrade colored handle. The corian I used is lighter in color, but was all I had on hand at the time. Both go with me in my elk pack. ::tu:: Dale
