Re: Norfolk Whittler
Mine just showed up yesterday, will post some pictures. Mine works perfectly, didn't even oil it yet. The jigging and bone is old-school gorgeous, love everything about this knife.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Norfolk Whittler
. . . and here you go. This sweetie weights about as much as a Case 640045R scout, nice weight in my opinion for the size. I guess I got lucky, can't find any flaws with this one. The shape of the main blade and the locking mechanism distinguish this whittler from all others.

Re: Norfolk Whittler
Surfing old threads looking at Cargill knives, realized I didn't post a picture of the "little brother" Norfolk I picked up from Charlie about a year ago. Robeson Mastercraft, made by Queen(?).

Re: Norfolk Whittler
Looks different than the humpback lock-backs in most of the photos posted on this thread, but this Northwoods Smooth Calico Bone is also called a Norfolk Whittler. Like knowtracks mentioned, this pattern is what I always thought of as a Norfolk (similar to the Case / Tony Bose Norfolk posted by smiling-knife).
Regardless of the name, all the ones posted so far are real beauties..especially that MOP Cargill

Re: Norfolk Whittler
This is a Larry Hayes Norfolk I picked up a while back. I think I have posted this before in other threads. I also have dreamed of owning an original Remington but was pretty sure that wasn't going to happen. Sometimes you just have to settle but when you get a knife as nice as your's or this one, settling isn't such a bad thing. ___Dave
