I love the color of that stag. It looks like vintage Case 1960's stag coloring. A lot of makers can't seem to get that color on their stag anymore.

Nice looking group of Creeks there redrider. I really like the early Cripple Creeks. They are getting harder and harder to find. HEre are a couple of Prototypes i picked up a while back.

Didn't even notice that's a Coffin Jack until you mentioned it. Beauty, eh!

The pearl gunstock is a 1981 Cargill AECA knife. Great pearl, half stops, and solid knife all around. The copperhead is just a nice stag knife. I don't see a lot of cripple creek copperheads. Finally a nice strawberry bone banana trapper.

How long is that banana trapper? That's a sweet piece!
