Beautiful knife, Roger. The square tool, is it a gauge for setting the points??

You all have posted some very nice Challenge knives, I really think they are some of the highest quality vintage knives out there.

Picked up this bare head jack with sheepsfoot main blade this week, I don't think vintage sheepsfoot jacks are all that common, at least I don't come across very many. Knife is in very good shape for its age.

Thank you Lee and thanks for the pattern name, always wondered if there was a specific name for this knife, I have an early Cattaraugus just like this one.

First two photos - a used old Cigar pattern, next is a lock back English Jack ( missing the folding guard like several others shown) and last, a couple of Scouts with a little etch left on the masters.

Here's a nice, stout jack knife with half stops on both blades.
Solid all the way around ...... but it is a Challenge. 3 3/8".
