Thanks John R. It looks like a 22269 Jack, but with a punch blade. Maybe a special for the FARMERS GUIDE promo? ::handshake:: J.O'.

I haven’t been buying much lately but couldn’t pass on this Napanoch. All steel hardware peened pins with plenty of original finish on the blades. Great snap both ways with half stops on both blades.
