I love old Brit-made pruners in natural stag, butt plates, and integral bolsters. Show 'em if you've got 'em.
Here's some...........

Can anyone make out what's on the top line above "Brumby & Middleton"? All I get is the "ON" at the end.

Love that old stag on these pruners John and Dimitri.
White bone is also a favorite with the pique work. That's very white for it's age.

Wostenholms are great knives and I wonder why they never got any royal commissions.

Great pruners Dimitri and Lyle. 30 years ago I didn't pay nearly enough attention to pruners, I do now.

Here are a few pruners from Wostenholm along with an IXL whittler.

That's a beautiful handle on that one Dimitri.
Wow, what a blade on that first Wostenholm pruner!!
That's a great whittler, as I’ve said Wostenholms are one of favorite manufacturers.
