I carried this old Tested XX 47 pattern for years. Bone is cracked, and it has seen some rough duty. I love this knife. Its like a tough old tomcat, ready for a few more battles.

At the other end of the scale, are these three near mint Cattle knives. I don't need 'em all, but I can never decide which I like best! At least one has milled liners!

Nice slim trapper, bladerunner!
I have it on good authority that these are all greenbone! Shows the variety they can have!!

Thanks and very nice green bone Upnorth. Here's a rare little 6210 with a lighter shade of green bone.

I love that curvey teardrop shape, br.
6210 must be an old pattern. How long is that one?

I have some green handled knives, but none as old
as the lovely examples posted so far (I'm sorry to say).
I hope these still qualify.

OH YEAH these qualify very nicely.

Thanks for putting that Buckeye Burl in there. It is an awesome wood to work with. Your results are directly influenced on the piece you use and how you chose to use it. The knifemaker has full control on how it comes out. Stabilized clear, gold tone or dyed, 1 of my favorite woods to work with.

Nice group of knives, thanks for sharing.

Yes, I have only seen two of these. This one has a tested stamp. The other was a Case Bradford. 3 1/8 inches closed.
Best,

Sunburst, those S&Ms are beautimous kanifes fer shure.
& Singin', going from none to one you sure found a whopper.

Thanks Hukk for your kind comments on the first greenies.

Green bone probably my favorite handle color with Red a
close second followed by dark chestnut and the antiques.
Here a few more for your amusement:
