Mega amounts of gratitude to HiPower for making this available to me. It's the non-serialized version. There were 24 made without serial numbers.

Thanks Trevor, I'm pretty darned happy with it.

Monk must have wanted that Barlow pretty badly 'cause he offered up a mighty fine trade to suck it out of me. I'll get pictures tomorrow of the Cripple Creek Lockport Whittler that was my end of the bargain. I'm really very pleased with it.

Nice score, Jerry!

IMO, the 66 Jack is one of the most underrated/overlooked GEC patterns … great knife.

I too like that shield. What's your opinion of the knife? (Ya just can't beat a Wharncliffe blade.)


I'm liking that "Northwoods" stamp and am fascinated by the blade they're showing. I'm really eager to see the completed knife it goes into.

I really like this knife Jerry, and I am starting to appreciate the wharncliffe blade alot more.
The fit and finish on this knife is superb and the snap and half stop are done beautifully....can't wait to get
a couple of the LinerLock models.

Bob at Old Hundred told me they only made 20 of the non-liner lock, Wharncliffe, Stag Hound Tooth 55s. True or not, I have to believe he knows more about it than I do. ::shrug::

Thanks Trevor.

I have to agree. That Blue Oyster really does it for me!!

Currently in transit from a trade with Monk. I'm going to use his picture (because it's so good!) Look forward to seeing this Ole Jack jackknife soon. The shield on this one is a hoot - I love it! OH
