This Olive has darkened over the years, Boker Evergreen series Winzermesser. I think the tang stamp is unique to this series.

Olive wood, blackwood and Mokume Gane on our Dobson M390 santoku. This Olive is used and abused, 8 years now.

A few ladies with their Sunday-go-to-meeting wood clothes on.

Great group shot line up H. Looooooooove those.

Thanks bro you're still my hero, the knives you tote are better than most people's safe queens.

Well thanks my friend. Appreciate it. Then again if you only knew what a sad, sick, pathetic hero you have here. When I joined AAPK I did not know what a safe queen was. I hunted and chased what turned me on. Sought what I wanted to carry, use, and play with for the most part. It was my sworn philosophy. After years here I have been swayed by these forums to adjust my attitudes about that and once again have succombed to peer pressure to the point of having a few I don't use. Feels like I'm betraying my moral code and core values. It's addicting and sometimes like a true addict I buy when I'm trying to quit, I put them up in storage when I want to carry and enjoy. And although I feel like a two faced sell out, it does take the sting off a bit when guys like you compliment what I'm doing even though at the same time it gripes me. Thanks for the compliments though and glad you like seeing them.

Amen, well said, true wisdom from experience. Good to see I"m not the only one. Thanks again Homer.

I think the Queen is Zebra wood. The MM looks to made by Canal Street, so you could probably find pretty easy by asking Eric(EA42).

[Jacknifeben]

32206G Cattaraugus cattle knife with the round shield which means it a punch blade. To top it off the spey blade is stamped FOR CUTTING FLESH ONLY.

[Jacknifeben]

This is my oldest Cattaraugus knife, I think. Wood handles, long pull spear blade and a four line CATTARAUGUS CUTLERY CO. LITTLE. VALLEY N.Y. No arch.

[Quick Steel]

Montanaman, thank you for your input. Zebra wood is a real possibility.

[Montanaman]

Montanaman, thank you for your input. Zebra wood is a real possibility.

Queen used a lot of birds eye maple and zebra wood during the period your knife was made, more of a probability than a possibility.
