Thanks Lyle, were you able to land the one you were looking at?

[wlf]

He wants too much, but we are still talking. I wish eBay would show actual sale price on the OBO sales, rather than leaving the asking price as what was negotiated,so I could show him an actual point of reference to value.

The two knives look very similar.

[wlf]

Krusius Brothers.

Was wondering if you all think this is Parker’s.

Nice knife, I don’t know if the stag is period? It’s not been used ,so that’s another factor.

These do seem to hold some mysteries.

Lyle,I saw that on Ebay.I think the stamps are good and it appears to be old construction. The handle pins look like steel and are small.Not having it in hand to give it a better look,I think it is righteous.

[JohnR]

Lyle, beautiful knife, I agree with Roger, looks like an old one to me, besides the construction that is some great old stag.

Merry Christmas buddy to you and Jan and hope you have a wonderful New Year.

Great knife Lyle.

And I don't think Parker ever had the rights to Krusius Bros. trade marks.

Thanks fellas, good to hear from everyone. Don’t know if you can tell, but I just noticed that the liners are coined.

Congratulations guys on your knife purchases. Charlie, that’s a great Terrier. Great suggestion by Lloyd I think.

John, you’ve gotten several good ones I haven’t commented about.

Roger and Ken’s SFO seems to be very well received.

Very nice knife Lyle. Pretty hard to beat that one.

[wlf]

Thanks Keith, if I had the money ,I would buy every one of this pattern I saw and could. Each knife in this pattern seems to have some different information. I don't mind letting doubles go,after I've had a chance to study them.

Here is the other I have not posted here. It is a stag Ulster,which was among the farmers jacks Mike L. was selling a while back. His pictures:

Couple more beauties Lyle, your amazing condition continues to grow.

[espn77]

I've been envious of the knives in this thread for a long time. Never been able to play. But finally I came across a Remington R3853. Not the best condition but it's going to fill the hole till something better comes along.

I appreciate you finding it for me Roger

[LongBlade]

Nice FJ Lyle ... another for your pile ..

Keith - Nice Remington - looks pretty good to me ... at least you found one as I have had little luck in my searches looking for FJs...

[wlf]

Thanks for posting it Keith, glad you found one. I know where one that looked pretty near unused in the pictures. That looked like a fairly nice one that sold on eBay recently,it had reddish handles.

He wanted about $500 for it and I decided to wait it out. There are a few out there.

[JohnR]

Sometimes insomnia pays off, snagged this Schrade Cut Co as a BIN in the middle of the night last night. Secondary blade is a rooster comb and flat grind on one side, have not seen that all that often. Lyle has posted a couple with that blade. Unfortunately someone cleaned the blades with sandpaper, pics are sellers, will take better pics when it arrives.

[wlf]

They are very rare John. Great snag. I looked for that knife a long time.

Thanks for posting it.

[JohnR]

Thank you Lyle, I would not have known how rare this one is but thanks to this thread and your posts I was able to figure it out, thanks again buddy.

[JohnR]

Showed up today and its in better condition than the sellers pics showed.

[royal0014]

JohnR that's some kinda gorgeous right there.
The thumb ridges on the kick is extra, too !

[BWT]

Beautiful knife John. You did really good on that one!!!

[Dinadan]

That one is very nice, John!

Beauty of a FJ John ...
