That's a beautiful knife, Tony, even with all those blades. The etchings on each blade I find attractive, too. Great new addition to your "Parker Pile", buddy! ::tu::

Thank you Mark! It is a little bit like your Clayton Digby Gunstock you posted in "Comfort Knives", but definitely not the same.
I likes the one you have! ::tu::

some really nice Parkers here ! I'm learning of the variations ... there are Parker Edwards; Parker Frost, Parker (USA) and probably some others. I have a couple of the Japanese Parker Edwards - seem to be some of the best I've seen.

Lansky, if you have seen any of my posts, you know my vote is for Japan made. Another varition is the Japan made "Parker Custom Series", of which the "Excalibur" I posted above is. The Custom Series is their high end knives. The fixed blade custom series are really nice. ::nod::

Nice one Gino! ::tu:: I like Whittlers! Yeah, more sought after now, and prices are edging up, but still currently affordable.

I always wanted a real Marbles safety knife but that will have to wait till I strike it rich. This Parker will have to do for know.

Still a quite nice knife!
I love swinguard knives, and the safety feature makes for a real beauty!

Ditto on a Parker being the first knife I purchased with my own money. I have been buying them for many years,

This one arrived this week from the “Bay”, and after a little work, it will go into the trapper rotation.
