Nice rare knife!

Super little lobster Outcast. Many collectors would love to add that stamp to their Case knife collection.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Re: Lets show some Old and Rare ones.
Awesome score on the Wragg knife Dave Beautiful stag on a nice big knife - blade looks to be excellent as well!!! It looked like the blade had the old stove pipe or as some call it - "top hat" - kick too... Wragg was a very desirable old Sheffield maker - made some nice old Bowies too!!!djknife13 wrote:Samuel Wragg Furnace Hill Sheffield with Sphered blade from the 1840's___Dave

Re: Lets show some Old and Rare ones.
Added these recently , the Hollinger and Capitol Cut Co don't seem to show up all that often, the NYK is a common tang stamp but I have seen few of these small teardrop's.

John, I like all three but really like the ebony. ____Dave
Re: Lets show some Old and Rare ones.
All those knives are NICE John .. No disrespect buddy and just my opinion but not sure I would call them tear drops - I think they are Regular Barehead Jacks - to me the tear drop jacks have more of a curve towards rear bolster and a more rounded curved rear bolster (below just for comparison and easier to see than explain is a Challenge Tear Drop Jack for comparison that I no longer own - though it went to a good home - hope you don't mind John and not for anything other than an example ... anyway love the bone on the Hollinger and Capital but in truth that NYK is really sweet (I agree with Dave!!) - great wood and very cool shield with sweet blades ... I think they are all boys knives - Are they all +/- 3"??? - that NYK would be a sweet addition to any boys knife collection - like mine ...
