Re: Old Knives With Jigged Bone Handles
Posted this one over in the Robeson collectors forum but it fits well here also. I bought it mainly for the jigged "green" bone scales. They look a little darker in the pics than they really are. Just picked it up yesterday.

Very cool old jigged bone MB. Nice addition.
Mumbleypeg, great jigging on that. Really pretty color and pattern.

Re: Old Knives With Jigged Bone Handles
Very nice hunter Mike,and that Camillus is nice also.It doesn't seem who made,if it's old,seems it's beautiful.I like Camillus' old bone.
Nice Robeson mumbletpeg,they had some beautiful bone.
Dimitri's firing out some nice German heritage.Dimitri I especially like that hand done boneand absolutely think that Ulster is stunning,early Ulsters are great knives.That Lennox is what I,and a lot of others term pick bone,whether it had any handwork or not.
Delbert ,I have bought similar knives just for the bone handles.I agree,I don't see how it came through without being more pocket worn.

Re: Old Knives With Jigged Bone Handles
Very nice!
Isn't the jigging on the Cast Steel called "scratting?"
A very old method usually done by a knife or file, IIRC.

Re: Old Knives With Jigged Bone Handles
A few details on the toothpick:
Iron bolsters
Brass liners
Hand peened brass pins
5'' long
Long heavy swedge with standard pull that is IN the swedge
Saber grind
Maybe Schrade?
