Good looking group, what’s the 3rd from the left, the little bare head jack. Is that a western below the sheath?

Thanks 3rd from left is my grandpas 1940's Case I think is nicknamed Tadpole still very sharp . Below sheath are Westerns W742 Rosewood , 522 Rosewood with Cummins engrave on the bolster and 742 . I also have few Case Tiny Toothpicks ,would like more but have become expensive . Dummy me sold a couple then found they have been discontinued.

I thought that was a tadpole knife(29-1/2 pattern)it is very nice. I have a western very similar to the ones you have pictured but I believe mine is just stamped with a 55 or 52 I can’t remember.

Great collections everyone!

I recently acquired a small collection of Dave Shirley Marbles Gladstone folders to add to the hoard, since I needed a few more knives.

Very nice JBT-rucker!!! Is the Boker one made in Argentina? I just piked one up a few days ago and it looks very similar.

Very NICE JBTrucker! All beauties, but the fixed blade (and the Western LB especially) draw my eye. Many

Great looking group of Robesons & Marbles, chickenman!

And speaking of Marbles, I added a few to that sub-collection today.

Great collection. Now I have to look for that stag congress with the longer bolsters. What year was that one?

Thanks CM62! It is a 2 blade large congress and I think it was made in 2003 and a very limited edition (I think a total of 200 split up into multiple handle materials). I really like it as well, but may entertain selling or trading. Shoot me a pm if you're interested.

Yes Argentina box labeled BOKER ARBOLITO STAG EXCLUSIVE BRAUN, purchased on sale from Midway USA few years ago . It is a replacement for the first one with uneven mismatched handles

Very nice chickenman and Kevin. My kind of knives.

This is a small sub collection, but I just bought the second pattern with these red diamond back jigged handles made by Case. I hope they made more patterns with these handles, really like this. I don’t collect many Case knives in the last few years, but when they come up with something this gorgeous, I can’t resist. Bought both from Wild Horse Customs.

Beautiful pair, Mark, they seem to have matched the covers on both almost perfectly.

Thanks Mark, I’m pretty impressed with the handles on these.

I have downsized my Spyderco collection and these are what is left.

Time to wake this thread back up. Just got another Lone Wolf Paul knife. This one commemorates VJ Day back in 1942. My wife’s father fought in the Pacific on Sai Pan, Okinawa and some other islands so this one has some special meaning. Not sure if the wood on this is from a battleship or some other source. I think the Missouri was turned into a museum but that doesn’t mean this wood isn’t from that, but not sure. If anyone knows, I would appreciate the information.
Picture also shows my fiddleback whittler collection and some other whittlers and the 3 on the right are Marbles Germany knives. Had to move them out to make room for more Marbles Gladstone knives.
