Very nice, lobsters don't seem to bring the prices they should, and I can't imagine why, some of the highest quality knves made were lobsters. Nice one in good shape. ::tu::

Most folks don't know it but Bulldog produced what they called a gentleman's knife, it was 3 1/4 inch long.

These are prototypes with COA's and I don't know if they made any production - I'm thinking that they did more so than not. The pearl in this set is by far my favorite, bolsters on the stag is distracting. These were made in the 4th generation and I've only seen 1 or 2 others.
