Great batch of ebony bare heads, Lloyd!

Lots of variety in the shields. Beautiful Remingtons, Keith, nice variety!
Lovely group, Barry!

All nice, but the Ulster jumbo jack, second from the right, really catches my eye.

Thanks for the nice comments TF, Bill, Keith, WW, Greg, Roger, Barry, Dan, John and Mike!
Greg, no “honey hole” just picked these up over the years. Don’t think I have added one for a year or so.
Keith beautiful Remington Bareheads
Barry, very nice and varied assortment of Bareheads

That Napanoch, NYK and Ulster are just fantastic and like Dan said “catch my eye”!!

Lots of great knives being posted...

...
Lloyd - Indeed what a nice group of bareheads

- its cool to see the different shields against the ebony handles (sans the one with cocobolo)... no doubt the Empire and Holley caught my eye

...
Keith - All great looking Remingtons - nice spread - top notch
Barry - Great lineup of stunners

... very cool jack with Sheep Foot master - beautiful bone too

... I was told these were also called Carpenters jacks with a Sheep Foot master
Joe - Sweet Robeson addition

...
Greg - Wow - Those are some beautiful Empires

- I think I have Empire envy

....
I have lots of bareheads to post but will try and get a group shot - especially since I have a fairly large boys knife collection the vast majority are bareheads

... since Barry posted the one with the Sheep Foot master I figured I would start with this Maher & Grosh barehead with similar blades - not a boys knife at 3 3/4" and again was told by a very reliable knowledgable source a Carpenters Jack

Thanks for the additional photo of the Ulster, Barry, bears out my original comment and more!
Great lineup with lots of variety, Joe!

Those fish jacks are quite different from the usual fish jack, lovely bone and a cap lifter for the beer drinkers.
Fantastic collection of Empires, Greg!

Love them all.
Lovely Maher & Grosh carpenter jack, Lee!

Beautiful handles, to echo Greg's comment.
