Re: Farmer's Jacks
I had an opportunity to buy another in good condition and didn't, wish I had and I could have let you have it back.
I pretty much always regret not buying ones I passed on, sometimes it was the money though.

Another custom I've not posted here. It''s by Dr. T, it's his pattern that Reese Bose used to make one he did.

Glad to share them with you all, thanks for looking. I've certainly been blessed with good friends alerting me of knives on eBay and introducing me to custom knife makers.

Re: Farmer's Jacks
I wish, I didn't have between $2,000 - $3,000 to get in the bidding, but that's an amazing knife . The kind that brings out the high rollers.
Thanks for preservation of it's acknowledgement.

Re: Farmer's Jacks
I was surprised it didn't have rat tails. I don't think I'd trade mine for it, mine's older , but that's a dandy .
It's odd that both had damage to the end of the pruning blades. I like that spey design that one, it's what I patterned my GEC after.

Re: Farmer's Jacks
Wow Ike, Very Nice Remington ! That Bone is Awesome ! Don’t know where you and others here get such nice pieces ?
Lyle, that Hammer Brand with those bolsters and the etch sure make that a great piece !
Thanks for showing them Fellas.

Re: Farmer's Jacks
Man! These Farmer's Jack knives are simply put very beautiful knives.
But I can't seem to find any of them over here.
I did find one. A Victorinox. Didn't look as nice as these with bone handles though.

That may be one of the prettiest knives of any brand or pattern I’ve ever seen.

Re: Farmer's Jacks
thanks JP, Wade and Tom. Here's a scan where I caught that Hammer Brand etch. I was enamored with that etch and the Tree Brand. I wish I had a Boker etched.
