Beautiful Stag; beautiful blades.
Such a beautiful knife and from Sears. Who'd a thunk it?

Good show, Ike!

A pocket knife is still an intimate personal possession of the individual who carries it and consequently deserves the best of materials, finish and workmanship in its production. (Quoted from Boker's 1928 cutlery catalog).

That is a fine knife, Glennbad. Like Doglegg, I am wondering if you did the handles. I have never seen a shield placed like that. If it is your work ... congrats!

No, I picked it up at a knife show, along with a story, that someone thought it was Stan Shaw's work. No markings other than the original tang stamps. I'm pretty sure it didn't leave the factory like that, and the Stan Shaw story is probably just that, but I really thought it was interesting.
