Tim, your Winchester jack-knife is sweet! Is that a current offering or an older offering?

Thanks OH ::handshake::

It's a 1987 Reproduction made by Queen under contract with Bluegrass .

I am really impressed with the quality of it.

Tim, do you have any others from that run? The 2921 Swell Center (Coffin) (Coke Bottle) Jack is particularly nice, as is the '89 Sow Belly, the 3964 Stockman and the 39018 Whittler. I guess I could just save myself some typing and say they're all very nice knives but you probably already know that.

Tim - If you decide to get more, may I recommend the 2921 Swell Center Jack.

Tim...very nice. ::tu:: ......I have a small 7 knife display box of the BGC Winchesters....I'm thinking of making a bigger display by adding the patterns that I don't have. ::nod::
They are a very nice quality made knife...with fit & finish that’s very hard to surpass. 8)

Vieu, nice knife! That is exactly what I am hoping the AAPK 2012 club knife will be made like.

Okay, got all excited by Tim's Boker Top Lock II and forgot to post the latest addition to my Miracle Whip collection. It's the 1948 15th anniversary and the first I've seen in the five or so years I've been actively pursuing these knives.

I don't have a clue Tim. Some composite material for sure. Colored Epoxy? ::shrug::

Tim or Jerry, are those Boker auto's blades made of 440C stainless steel like most of the stainless steel Boker Solingen Germany marked knives?
