I've got an Imperial Hammer Brand USA 3 1/2 " two blade jack with the scales missing and two good old carbon blades with a clear tang stamp...It was a shell handle obviously, but if you were to file down the clips where the shells attached, you could possibly attach some new handles using a strong adhesive..? Or drill the liners and use pins..?...I'm not a knife mechanic so I don't even know if that's a possibility, but I like the knife, I just won't carry it as is with no scales.....Let me know if you're interested.

And here is a Colonial that is in perfect shape, like new actually...except the scales have shrunk and cracked at the pins.

hmmmm....those are some nice project knives there.

What are you looking to get for the Case stockman with no handles? Also, whats the price of the large trapper with the buffalo shield?

I know you are offering them to the original poster first, and I recognize that.

If they pass let me know, thanks.

Here is the Case stockman Birdseye, rescaled and no Birdseye rivets used.
The pictures taken from IPad are not the best, the knife looks great.
