Deer and Elk and Steer, Oh My! What Do You Have?

[New_Windsor_NY]

Beautiful knives Old Hunter. Thank you for looking, finding and posting.

I will be adding these two "deer head" knives to the group. Hopefully sometime this coming week. The first 3 pictures are the seller's and the last picture is mine, of what I have so far.

The last of them. I'm particularly proud of the Puma Big Five set. Took a good bit to assemble all of them in factory condition.

[New_Windsor_NY]

VERY nice cutlery Jerry! Really like the Puma Big Five set. Thank you for posting them.

[jerryd6818]

My pleasure. I'm rather partial to the Big Five Set. It's my tipping point from accumulator to collector, though I denied it for several years (and still do most of the time).

These two Imperial "deer head" knives arrived yesterday. Two nice additions to my ever increasing menagerie. Click on the picture(s) to ENLARGE.

The zoo's coming along nicely, Skip.

[Quick Steel]

jxr, I'm really liking that red gator. Haven't seen it before.

Thank you Jason. That's a mighty fine looking knife that you just posted.

Thanks, fellas

Haven't seen it before.

In the mid 90s Schrade had a number of college team SFOs and I think they may have all been SEC - but not 100% on that.

[New_Windsor_NY]

These 4 knives should be arriving some time next week. From top to bottom they are, an Imperial "steer head", an Imperial "deer head", an Imperial fixed blade, with sheath, "elk head" and a Colonial fixed blade "elk head." When I receive them, if they need it, they will get a cleaning and I will post MY pictures in the appropriate location(s). The menagerie continues to grow. These pictures are the seller's.

This Ulster cattle knife came off of the Schrade display board.

[jerryd6818]

Skip, I'm probably wrong but that last one looks more like a Moose head to me. Opinions??

VERY nice looking knife! Thank you for posting and sharing it.

Jerry, I was thinking the same thing because of the way the antlers look. I'll know for sure when I receive it and clean it up, if it needs it. If the Colonial turns out to be a moose, I will not be disappointed. The Imperial fixed blade looks suspicious also. Again, if they both turn out to be moose instead of elk, I'll actually be VERY happy.

[Old Hunter]

No question that is a Moose. An elk would have very high and wide antlers without the paddles. OH
Ps. Both of the fixed blades (the two different brands) are both an artists interpretation of a Moose.

So both fixed blade knives have depictions of Moose, correct?

[Old Hunter]

Yes, both knife handles are depicting a Moose (you need a Moose Pattern with a Moose to go with them now!). OH

American Elk (top) and Alaskan Moose (bottom). OH

Thank you OH. I enjoy the thrill of the hunt. I never thought I'd find the ones that I've found.

Today I am adding these three beasties to the menagerie or zoo. An Imperial "deer head" knife, an Imperial "steer head" knife and an Imperial "moose head" fixed blade knife, with leather sheath (continued in next post, on next page). Click on the picture(s) to ENLARGE.

Skip, that looks a lot better in your pic's than the sellers. Very good condition.
