Thanks Ivoryman, I dont have too many Cattles, I am trying to find my way with collecting, but being pulled in so many directions which isnt helping.
I am very much into Older HJ's, also Scouts...BUT then love anything older like Jacks, Cattles, Oh man...you name it ::shrug::

Wow Duncan, you really have managed to collect many fine vintage knives in the last 10+ years. Being in New Zealand makes knife collecting even more of a challenge as many knife sellers will not ship to N.Z. But your persistence has enabled you to amass perhaps the best vintage knife collection in N.Z. It has been my good fortune to get to know you beginning in our early BF 'daze' circa 2008.
Please continue to post pictures of your knives in the various forums here.

I haven't posted much lately you will have to forgive me for being lazy in my old age. Picked this up a while back. It is a junior cattle knife. Tang stamp is Montgomery Ward & Co. Chicago. Main blade has etch and the L is almost missing, but it says Lakeside. I hope it is visible in pics. Not mint but still nice for this lucky dog. Thanks for looking.
