Deer and Elk and Steer, Oh My! What Do You Have?

[New_Windsor_NY]

The latest inhabitant of the zoo arrived this morning. It is another, unbranded, "deer head" handle, single blade, 4 tools, scouting/camping style pocket knife. The tang stamp says "ROSTFREI." I know what it means. It needed very little cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

This afternoon, this knife became the latest zoo acquisition. It's another PASTOR ALEMAN (German Shepherd), 2 blade with bottle opener/cap lifter, pocket knife. It does have the dog head profile on the tang stamp, so it qualifies for zoo residency. This knife "brand" is part of the Imperial and Colonial, Mexico story/connection. It looks like it could use a minor cleaning. I'll check it out when I receive it. Pictures will be taken and posted.

Today, this fixed blade, "deer head(?)" knife, showed up quite unexpectedly. It is most welcomed at my zoo. It was a gift from Ryan, aka Stanwade. I want to thank Ryan for his most generous gift and to assure him that this "deer(?)" will be quite safe here. It measures 4 5/8" long. It required no cleaning. Here is the latest occupant.

Glad you like it my friend my pleasure..

I just purchased this knife for best offer. It's another unbranded knife. It is stamped ROSTFREI on the tang (I know what it means). It's a single blade, 4 tools, "deer head" handle, scouting/camping style pocket knife. This one has a slightly different style than my other, similar knives. This will fit in very nicely in the zoo. Due to the lack of variety of pictures, I can't tell what condition it is actually in. From what I can see, it looks like it's in pretty good condition. When I receive it, I'll check it out. Pictures will be taken and posted in the appropriate location(s).

I need my eyes checked, along with my reading skills. I just re-read this. You said "This Knife" but for some reason my electrons sparked and my eyes thought it was two separate knives. Very cool. Also noticed the Domino are 7 / 11. Great find.

It's a single blade, 4 tools, "deer head" handle, scouting/camping style pocket knife.

It would be better known as a 'shell puller'.
12 and 16 gauge seemingly the most common variant, though 20 ga is seen occasionally .

I just acquired these two future zoo occupants for best offer. Two Imperial, fixed blade, "Moose Head" knives. Both have leather sheaths and one has a fish scaler. Both will be warmly welcomed into the zoo. They both look like they're in EXCELLENT condition and won't need to be cleaned. When they arrive, they will get the once over. I'll take some pictures and post them in the appropriate location(s). Here they are.

Well I'll be dipped!! You just taught this old dog a new trick. I wonder if they made any for European countries in 24 or 28 ga? Thanks for posting that info.

To give a quote from the movie Sandlot....."Ya Killing me Smalls!"

Very nice additions. You keep adding to the zoo, eventually you gonna have to build more cages.

Again, very nice additions to the zoo.

The latest resident of the zoo arrived this morning. It's another PASTOR ALEMAN (German Shepherd), 2 blade with bottle opener/cap lifter, pocket knife. It does have the dog head profile on the tang stamp, so it qualifies for zoo residency. This knife "brand" is part of the Imperial and Colonial, Mexico story/connection. I gave the blades a bit of a cleaning, but left the handles alone. I didn't want to risk messing with the graphics. Here it is.

[New_Windsor_NY]

The zoo's latest resident has just been acquired. It is a 2 blade, "Deer Head" pocket knife. Per the seller, I can't make out the tang stamp, it is made in Japan. It looks like it's in good condition. When it arrives, I'll check it out. Pictures will be taken and posted in the appropriate location(s).

Thank you Smitty. It looks like it's in pretty decent shape.

Today, the zoo welcomes it's latest residents. The first five pictures, another CAMILLUS 72, 3 blade, "Ducks" etched main blade, "whittler" pocket knife. The last three pictures, two more Imperial, "Moose Head", fixed blade knives with sheaths. None of the knives required any cleaning. I took some pictures and here they are.

[New_Windsor_NY]

Obtained for a low best offer, this knife will now be my latest addition to the zoo. It's another Imperial, 2 blade, "Deer Head" pocket knife. Actually, it looks more like 1 blade and 1 file. Whatever the case, this knife needs help. When it arrives, I'll do what I can with it. I'll take some pictures and post them in the appropriate location(s).
