Here is a very rare group of knives that were owned by Mark Zalesky owner of KnifeMag, he did the video. I was able to make a deal with a friend to purchase the knives. I own the lockback and the others went to my buddy. He has one up for sale now on ebay, Mason & Son quill knife very rare!!
Hope you enjoy the video

Now that is cool! I don't believe that I have ever seen a fold-out shell puller before now, only those integral to the bolsters.
Beautiful handles on it! Are they stag?

Another big score, Bill, that is awesome. That is a very nice knife, in addition to being old and obscure. I bet it feels great in the hand...........I wish I knew for sure!!
