Thank you, Kerry.
I hope you got out of there before they could arrest you for theft, Dave! Cause that's a real steal of a deal! Fantastic old knife!

This XX era Texas Jack 06247 came floating down the -Bay for $60. I've been looking for one at a reasonable price for a few months now, maybe longer.![]()
Anyho, I think it cleaned up nicely and will fit in well with my other -47s. Had some rust to remove and bolster stains/oxidation. Attaching some of the listing shots and my cleaned up EDC, I like the end result patina.

I just wish they made some bigger knives.Sharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Wed Jun 04, 2025 2:13 pm Picked up this mini doctor’s knife offered by Wild Horse Customs. I just can’t pass up these red snake skin handles. Case uses the best looking bone covers in use today. One of only 500 made. Wish they used these handles on bigger knives.
