My latest German Bulldog. From 1993, a Trapper with Popcorn Stag.

A handsome looking whittler for sure, chickenman.

I just did a little trading for this one.

That's a beautiful knife!

A few of my 'Dogs....

I'm thinking that you can't have too many B.D.s.....

Classy and functional.

A huge fan of these Calf Ropers, very hard to find nowadays

Those are indeed hard to find. They have a very ingenious locking design that is completely different from rear locking designs. Due to their rarity I just managed a single green bone and a stag example for my collection. Congratulations on your procurement of these fine examples.

Nice. I like that knife.

SS, That is a wonderful set of Bulldogs.

Thank you for your kind replies. Been picking these up over the years. I really like this locking mechanism. In German the lock is called "Klappbügel-Verschluss" and the knife is a "Klappbügel-Messer" which translates to “folding bracket closure knife”

Scott, your Calf Ropers are exceptional and unique! Like everything about them! Many Thanks for posting and the info!

Crazy low numbers. I think the Bull brand was a version where the logo was printed not etched on.

TOPDOG, I don’t own any Bulldogs and really don’t know anything about them. Your knives are beautiful! Are those handles celluloid or some other material.

Thnks T! Most of my B.D.s are with handles made of celluloid ..... I like the colors ... but .... I just don't trust the celluloid so much these days after a few bad experiences ...
