Ok, so I am doing this FnR thing alone here....

Post by Capt. Farrel »

...but at least I have a good reason to do so! :mrgreen: ::groove::

Cought another "One Armed Jack" in my net. I love this early concept of a one hand opened knife. ::tu:: This one has horn handles and is from 1987.
I still wonder where all those Roosters have been over the years here in Germany. ::hmm::

That's a nice one Skipper. I like the shield down there.

Cool knife Frank, I owned that very one several years back. ::nod:: In fact I had a bunch of FRs but over the last 10 years have sold most of them off. Some I wish I had kept, some not. Right now I only own 3 "End Of Day knives", a Stockman, Congress and Pen pattern.

Thank you guys! Fight n Rooster was in fact the brand that got me into collecting "american style" pocket knives. Up to now I have only one "end of day" knife of Mr. Frank Buster but I hope to find more. The3y are too nice.... ::tu::

Frank,are you sure them handles being horn,they look synthetic to me.Saw the same material on LF&C knives.

It looks and feels like polished horn to me and the grain and texture are different on each side. ::hmm::
