Me too!

It might shower in the next few days.

Got a few more, smaller etched knives.I''ll start with a W.Bingham Co. Germany with Bingham's Finest Steel etch.

Next is a pearl Keen Kutter.

Simmons Hardware 4 blade pearl with a Keen Kutter etch.

Keen Kutter bone whittler with Keen Kutter etch, also has pattern# etched on back of the blade(K3307R).

Pearl Challenge pen with a bail.

L F & C pearl with Universal etch.

Maher & Grosh jack.

A couple more big ones.A Camillus with Sword Brand etch, and a Camillus made Hibbard Spencer & Bartlett with an OVB etch.

More beautiful etched blades, thanks for showing them

Absolutely beautiful specimens peanut! Thanks for sharing them!

Boy peanut, these are great to see. They are all so beautiful. I like the Maher etched jack.

Here is an L.F.& C. junior stockman salesman sample.

Got a couple etched Winchester jacks recently.A bone handled 2844 pattern, and a 2640 pattern in ebony with fluted bolsters.

This is a Maher & Grosh hawkbill I posted earlier on the rope knife tread.

That's a great knife Beech,I would think a very rare LF&C,as most were rough black rubber.

Beautiful examples Roger,absolutely stunning.I kinda like that blade on the last one.

Thanks wlf. You are right, the black composition handles are the most common, and while I do see stockman knives with different color cell handles, this color combination is uncommon and quite striking.

That is a great Maher Grosh pruner Peanut. It is lovely to see old pruners with their tips intact, not to mention etched!

Great point Bt,not much of a pun intended ,but a nice observation. Pruners condition can be deceiving ,unless one has observed the same in a catalog cut.

Same with spear blades,they might look about full,until you actually see a full blade.No subtstitute for experience.

^ So true wlf. The experience you mention just makes me appreciate when I see a full blade even more

Not one but two! Very nice. The grind makes for formidable looking blades

I posted this on another thread awhile back but it definitely fits here also.Excelsior with Forest King etch.

That's a king etch too Roger.
