Mailman brought me this 4 1/2", 2880 Texas Jack last week. Is this jigging called Peachseed?

[1967redrider]

I would say, yes, and it's gorgeous.

I call it beautiful, Desert Golfer. Nice find!

Here are a few I have, all modern, mostly made by Queen through Blue Grass Cutlery (I think). Included are an interesting Two Blade Cigar (kind of like a Moose), an actual Moose, and a Seahorse Whittler type.

This is an interesting one. It started out as a very nice GlitterStripe Celluloid Winchester marked Large Coke Bottle. But a few years ago, the celluloid started outgassing and it had to come off. Painted Pony made the scales you see using individual pieces of their Mica Pearl (aka Corelon) material. Even the white spacers. It was their first attempt at doing this. It looks fantastic in the sun, but none was available when I took this picture.

And finally, here is a Dogleg Teardrop Jack shown with a Case Teardrop Jack, and a Large Cigar Whittler. Hard to see the Wichester tang stamp on the Whittler, but its there.

Beautiful Winchesters Gentlemen! I only collect Winchester knives.

This is a beautiful knife Gary.

Nice knives Hardman, got a nice pile started. Desert Golfer that is amazing find on that 2880. I wonder how Winchester came up with that peach seed bone. I have a replica catalog and that 2880 is in there and identical to your knife.

Did Schrade make any Winchester stamped knives?

[hardman]

Thanks much David and luckydog64. I have one or two more around here somewhere, including a real nice Stag Large Coke Bottle and I am very concerned that I can't find it.

Yes peachseed. Made by Schrade Cut for Winchester. I've owned a couple and seen a few others.

[Desert Golfer]

Wow! I didnt know Schrade made some knives for Winchester. I dont have any other Winchester knives with that kind of bone. It does stand out from the others. Thanks for the info. Mike-Desert Golfer

Here is an old warrior, hard snap and no wobble. Been a while since i got it out to carry. It dont mind a little hard work, it says bring it on.

[Desert Golfer]

Lucky Dog, That is a Beautiful Old Winchester, Beautiful Bone with Fluted Bolsters.

[luckydog64]

Thanks Desert Golfer.

[Desert Golfer]

Lucky Dog, Here is an Old Winchester similar to yours. Pattern 2908 with Fluted Bolsters. This Old Knife avoids hard work.

[Desert Golfer]

I Discovered this Winchester Equal End Knife in an Antique Store in Oceanside, CA. Last month at a very reasonable price and eagerly purchased it. Its a seldom seen color. The blades have had quite a bit of sharpening but has good snap and the handles have no cracks. It lives in Arizona now.

[luckydog64]

That 2908 is a good looking knife. i wouldnt let it work either lol.

[QTCut5]

This one will be a safe queen as well. I've owned a number of black box Winchesters and every one has had a bear trap gator snap; this 2904½ Stag Trapper from 1992 is no exception. I also like the profile of the spay blade with that unusual swage grind.

[QTCut5]

Another black box Winchester. This 1991 2935 does not have the hard gator snap like all my other black box Winchesters as I was expecting. But, being NOS, it still has some dried factory oil on it that I need to clean off; so maybe/hopefully that will make a difference in the snap.

[1967redrider]

Great looking knife, Q! Hard to believe it's 30 years old.
