Here's a 3 5/8" Passiac Knife Co. jack.
I guess there's not many around.
If you want to see one much prettier than mine, go to: post pick ups here ..... p. 260 .....
DCGM4 aka Dave has a real beauty there. MOP pen.

I'd say that jack's plenty pretty, Joe!

A little wood oil on the scales at that thing will sparkle.

Great knife, Joe. I will take ebony over pearl any day. Do still like pearl, though.

Just one beauty of a knife Joe

... love those big jacks and that one has sweet blades - look pretty near full to me as well!!!! I also like the look of dark ebony handles especially with a nice shield... Thanks for showing it!!!!

WOW, where'd you find that one Joe? She's a beauty!!!

What does one use for "wood oil?" I've got one that could use a little bath

FRJ · Post by **FRJ** » Mon Sep 14, 2015 1:19 pm

Thank you, Scott.
I'm not sure what Dave is referring to in terms of "wood oil", but I would put mineral oil on these scales. I like to use it on my kitchen knives too. It gives wooden handles a nice look.

I'm sure the pearl handled pen you referenced is nice, but I can tell you without looking that I like that ebony jack better.

That's a nice knife from a seldom encountered maker.

I fool around with five string banjos. Most banjos have an ebony fingerboard. Most of the collectors and custom builders on the banjo website I frequent prefer sesame seed oil to treat and preserve the ebony.

I have no idea what effect it might have on carbon steel.

I've yet to use it on one of my banjos or a knife.

I think they've said it's available in the spice department of the supermarket or at a pharmacy.

I'll check.

Linseed oil is good for wood along with many other uses.

Nice one FRJ..Never hear of that Co...neat stuff!

knifeaholic · Post by **knifeaholic** » Sat Sep 19, 2015 12:58 pm

Here is one marked Linden Knife Co. Possibly Linden NJ? The bone has typical New Jersey jigging (thanks to Dimitri for teaching me that).

FRJ · Post by **FRJ** » Sat Sep 19, 2015 5:27 pm

Thanks for showing that good looking knife, Steve. I hope I can remember to associate that jigging style to New Jersey knives. This knife has a unique tip on the spear blade. At least that's how it looks to me. It looks like it never quite completed the grinding process.

New Jersey Jigging eh?....hmmm.. learn something new here all the time

Mason · Post by **Mason** » Thu Sep 24, 2015 11:37 pm

Great classic looking knife, and rare to boot.

knifeaholic · Post by **knifeaholic** » Thu Sep 24, 2015 11:43 pm

The tip is chipped a bit.

Nice one, Steve!
