I looked around and didn't see much that interested me and the owner asked, "Did I show you the knives last time?" I said no and he says, "Here's one", and laid out a 3207 CV, then he dug into a file cabinet a drug out a about a dozen knives. I made an offer on four, he said, almost, then I countered with, "Throw in the Uncle Henry, that's been neglected and abused." He grinned, I'm pleased! ::tu:: Then he said, "You got all the good ones!"

Apparently I'm having a hankering for cattle knives as the 3 knives I pick up today at the Lubbock gun & Knife show were all cattle knives.

2 - Boker

For some reason cattle knives are all that I would expect to find in Lubbock! Very nice haul there.

There was one I really liked but I didn't have any knowledge on it. It has steer heads for bolsters and also had cattle knife acid etched/stamped in the blade. Like a moron I can't remember who made it. I thought it was pretty cool.

Here's a really nice Schatt & Morgan that Lee (LongBlade) slipped in my hand at the Mystic knife show.

It's the only Schatt & Morgan I own. 4" closed. I will be smiling and packin' this one. ::tu:: ::nod::

Thanks, Lee. ::handshake::

NICE! I have a newer schatt 4" stockman that was copied from an old one out of a catalog, I think yours is the one they copied. They sure didn't get the same fabulous bone though :D

Found this Randall Hall & Co. junker at a yard sale. Bought it because the pattern is a bit odd. It's got kind of a swell-center/gunstock/sleeveboard thing going on. ::shrug::
