A.F. Shapleigh Stag Washington Jack made by Empire, According to Goins Encyclopedia dates for this Obscure stamp are 1888-1902. Blades were cleaned unfortunately doing away with 123 plus years of history. Overall an amazing well intact piece of cutlery. Excited to have! ::ds::

That is exceptional. Pull, bolsters, and slim blades.

Yes it’s different material and suspect the snaps to have been fixed sometime during its life time. Everything else is original to knife.
