Here are a couple of Vintage Winchester Sleeveboard Jacks I have. Pattern 2905 and 2907. I have also seen these Knives called Straight jacks and Texas Jacks. They are both 4 1/2" Long.

I would call those English Jacks.

David what makes it a English Jack in your mind ? It still confuses me all this terminology for a Jack knife !
Appreciate your feedback and knowledge .

Ripster, I will use Benard Levine's definition from "Levine's Guide to Knives and Their Values". I'm sure he states it better than I could.

English Jack is a term that was commonly applied to deluxe large-sized (over 4 inches) slim, regular, and sleeveboard jack knives.

Premium handle material, fancy bolsters, and locking master blade are often seen on them.

Most often have a single clip blade. Others have a spear blade instead. Some have a pen second blade.

Thank you Sir
It helps to have a Reference to start from . And never think to look in the few copies of Levine’s and others lying around here . It may seem crazy but still have a hard time with some of the pattern names . Like half Whittler , this or that . Then there’s the Carpenter Whittler from Camillus that some say isn’t a Whittler. Could go on and on so again “ Thank you “ for your quick and solid response and always something to learn .
Have a good one .

Those are gorgeous!

Mailman brought me this Winchester 4950 Scout, Camp, Utility Knife today. I won an auction on the Bay. Been Hunting for this model for a while. Was wanting one with perfect bone with no cracks, full blades, lightly used and a knife that shows some age patina. The search is over.

Awesome hooking that one off the 'Bay.

[Jacknifeben]

Is that going to clean up enough to put with my knives?

[Desert Golfer]

I`m not going to clean it up. It`s 90 some years old and it will stay looking just like that. Thanks for inquiring Jack Knife Ben.

[Desert Golfer]

Vintage Winchester 2869 Gunstock. Recent addition to the collection. Hard to find. Blades have been sharpened. Somebody carried and loved this knife. Very happy to have it.

[stockman]

That is a nice one.
