This pocket knife has two tang stamps. Both tang stamps have the dog head profile, which qualifies this pocket knife for zoo residency. This pocket knife "brand" is part of the Imperial and Colonial, Mexico connection. It needed a cleaning, I did what I could. I took some pictures and here it is.
That's a new one on me Skip. I know nothing about Pastor Aleman, but I believe that is the first Pastor Aleman SAK clone I've seen. And the Shepard family grows!! ::tu::

Here are a couple of Case Texas Lockhorns. In one, you can see a deer Scrimshaw scene. In the other, the knife becomes a part of the display of a Texas Longhorn.

Thank you Skip. Maybe just one more: This is a Case Mako Shark Lockback with Smooth Mammoth Ivory scales commemorating the 125th Anniversary of the Pony Express with a scrimshaw depiction of a horse and rider.

A few moments ago, this pocket knife became the most recent resident in the zoo. It is a "ROSTFREI - INOXYDABLE - M.I.GERMANY" (made in), 1 blade, 5 tool, "Deer Head" pocket knife. It needed a little cleaning. I took some pictures of it and here it is.

Today, this pocket knife becomes the latest pocket knife to reside at the zoo. It was shipped from Poland. It is another ROSTFREI (I know what it means), single blade, 4 tools, "Deer Head" pocket knife. It is simply tang stamped ROSTFREI. It needed no cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.
