That'a a very nice Winchester Ike, vintage dog-legs are not that easy to find ::tu::

Here's a group. The smaller ones are too big to be peanuts and maybe too small to be doglegs , (according to Levine). Debatable.

Harold that is a real nice knife that oozes quality and darn now there is another company on my radar. ! I got this Robeson at first because of the demonstrator tang stamp but the design fits really good in your hand

Picked up this Fox Cutlery Co large dog-leg, really a well made knife with ebony that has some faint brown streaks in it. I can find next to nothing about Fox other than they were in Wisconsin and may date back to the 1800's. I don't think they made their knives and most came from Germany. This one is not marked Germany and is very similar to my Ulsters.
