What is wrong with that pearl Winchester with the etched blade and nail ?

Where is it, JKB?

[Jacknifeben]

I had it on eBay for a while with no bids. It is a small one with a bail.

That looks like a Black Box Winchester made by Blue Grass. I happen to love them.

Yes, Black Box Winchester from Blue Grass but manufactured by Queen Cutlery.

My fist Winchester came in early this AM. Single Spey blade that I found on some old website. Seems brand new and the finish could be a little better with a small gap in the spine but I'm happy. Its tough finding a single Spey blade so I'm pretty pumped.

Not flush on the spine

Here are a couple of Vintage Winchester Sleeveboard Jacks I have. Pattern 2905 and 2907. I have also seen these Knives called Straight jacks and Texas Jacks. They are both 4 1/2" Long.

I would call those English Jacks.

David what makes it a English Jack in your mind ? It still confuses me all this terminology for a Jack knife !
Appreciate your feedback and knowledge .

Ripster, I will use Benard Levine's definition from "Levine's Guide to Knives and Their Values". I'm sure he states it better than I could.

English Jack is a term that was commonly applied to deluxe large-sized (over 4 inches) slim, regular, and sleeveboard jack knives.

Premium handle material, fancy bolsters, and locking master blade are often seen on them.

Most often have a single clip blade. Others have a spear blade instead. Some have a pen second blade.

Thank you Sir
It helps to have a Reference to start from . And never think to look in the few copies of Levine’s and others lying around here . It may seem crazy but still have a hard time with some of the pattern names . Like half Whittler , this or that . Then there’s the Carpenter Whittler from Camillus that some say isn’t a Whittler. Could go on and on so again “ Thank you “ for your quick and solid response and always something to learn .
Have a good one .
