MB's additions just above jarred my memory - I never put this one in this thread and being a big lock back clip blade with knurly stag from Wostenholm I think it belongs here as a Hunter -

That IXL is STUNNING. My heart aches for it. I wish to clutch it to my breast in awe and reverence. I would at least like a .jpg big enough to put it onto my desktop monitor as a screen saver, as, of course, I can never own it.LongBlade wrote:Those are beauties Roger (lovely etch too) and Dimitri ... and the thread of awesome Hunters grows ....

Those clip and spear Saber bladed hunters a few pages back are the bee's knees.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Traditonal Hunters - Fifty years old (1965) and older…...
Thank a lot, dogg. It's really quite a knife. It's thin as the older ones seem to be so that makes it easier to carry.
I can't carry it though ... ... it's over 4 inches long on the cutting edge (4 1/4") and Connecticut wont allow anything 4 inches or longer to be carried by any one who is a honorable stand up tax payer who contributes rightly to the community and obeys the law.
Decent, mature, honorable citizens cannot be trusted to carry what they deem appropriate for themselves. It's quite insulting.

Beauty Joe ... and as for CT:
CT is a beautiful state (at least most of it with much history) BUT as you said the laws and many aspects don't make it desirable for many reasons including taxes etc etc.... State is hurting for money and yet their absurd laws etc have chased many folks and even businesses out of the state.... As to the knife laws - I doubt any troopers carry rulers so just tell them it is 3 and 15/16"

The top knife resembles the USN Mark 1 Deck Knife. (KaBar said that the original Mark 1 was patterned after the hunting knives of the 1920's and 1930's).tongueriver wrote:What a wonderful thread. Looks to have settled in to folding hunters, but just for fun I thought I would throw in a group of late 1920s and early 1930s Remington fixed blades.

This figures and is why I bought a modern KaBar USN Mark1 Deck Knife. You can't beat it for real hunting service/work. Their 1095 Cro-Van steel is marvelous and can be brought back to a razor's edge in jig time.

Here's a big old Humason & Beckley ebony hunter.
Thanks for looking.
