Re: Help with identification
Looks like a numbered Limited Edition Rifle Shield Series Texas Toothpick, made by Blue Grass. First numbered one I've seen.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Help with identification
My impression has been that Blue Grass makes nothing but paperwork. There is probably a thread on this that might show me to be wrong. I think the knives they brokered were made by Queen?

This is what the creators of this knife wanted to show us, but:1967redrider wrote:Looks like a numbered Limited Edition Rifle Shield Series Texas Toothpick, made by Blue Grass. First numbered one I've seen.
This model has never been on the Blue Grass website, although at different times all 26 releases of the "Rifle Shield" series that were released from 1988 to 2010 were listed there.
All models (except the first two) in this series were packaged in white boxes.
All models (except the first two) in this series had "W 15 xxxxx 1/2" type numbers.
All models in this series have a bone or stag handle and did not have serialization.
The tang stamp of this knife is different from all the Winchester knives I have seen.
And finally, the most important thing - this knife looks worse than any Winchester knife made by the Queen.

Re: Help with identification
Would someone go to all the trouble of creating a counterfeit box and paperwork to go along with a counterfeit knife? I guess I would avoid it at this stage.

Re: Help with identification
I’m with vit_213 in this one. Sure don’t look like bluegrass or queen quality to me!
Life is too short to carry an ugly knife!!

Re: Help with identification
Maybe this is own production of Blue Grass?
