Thanks -Very cool looking.

Noddy,
Looking nice!

Great looking little knife--------looks like,you could hardly tell ,it's in your pocket

That's a pic from when I got her. Doesn't look quite like that anymore - needs a bit of a clean up

Noddy, that's a very nice Ray Cover. I have one of his hunting knives. Don't hear much about his work anymore.

Cool knife and I dig the shield

I got this Stockman back in the Eighties. It has been used on and off through the years.
It's been a while now, and it was nice to put it in my pocket again.

Hmmm. Ranger Providence stamped. I wonder if it's made by Colonial or Imperial. I have a Ranger Providence LB 125 Viet Nam Veterns Memorial knife that I've wondered who made it. The knife opens and closes very smoothly and feels solid in the hand.

That's a very nice knife, Froggy. It looks like it would have a "quality feel" in the hand. I know mine does.

Anyone know who made these Rangers or have a guess?

Both LEVINE'S and PRICE say that Ranger is a Colonial brand.
I love that shield. and quite fitting for Memorial Day.

Yes I'm pretty sure Ranger it is made by Colonial. I thought I wrote so, but apparently I did not. Started the filenames with "Col", but then Alzheimer's struck again...

I also have a Barlow from the Scrimshaw Series...somewhere...featuring a trout.
It was in fact one of my first Barlows (if not the first) and I remember liking it so much that carried it every day for a long time. I've liked the Barlow pattern for EDC use ever since.

Jerryd6818,
Nice Memorial knife!

Thank you for the information, gentlemen. Colonial doesn't get much respect in the knife world but I gotta tell you, this lock-back is a quality piece and it looks like from the picture, Froggy's stockman is as well.

Nothing extravagant, just a nice and functional Stockman that keeps on cutting.
Just the way I like it!

Oman, I had never seen one of those Kershaw Double Cross knives before......looks like a sweet little EDC. I went out to Youtube, and there is a demo video of it. Wharncliffe and clip blades, liner lock on both blades, thumb studs, 3 1/2" length, but looks like a traditional pocket knife.

Wish it was made in USA instead of Japan, but the quality looks decent. Also don't care for the red wood handles....but I went ahead and bought one off e-bay. Can't wait to try it out.

Unk

A lot of knives made in Japan are high quality.
Got to go with USA first tho.

I purchased this Imperial on the Thursday night auction here at AAPK. I received it about 3 weeks ago or so and its been in my pocket every since. I really like the look and feel of it!

NICE!!!
wouldnt mind havin that!

A new user made its debut on a trip in the woods today.
Parker I*XL Lockback.
Blades made for Parker Cutlery in Japan back in the Eighties. Knives finally assembled during the last few years.
