Picked up this Miller Brothers 3 3/4" jack this week, badly rusted but full blades, did some cleaning and I think it looks great. The main is long and has a great match strike pull. I don't recall seeing a tang stamp that just says Miller Bro's Cutlery before.

Nice, John, that is a success story. I like that old Western box too, from my "neck of the woods".

Nice knife John.You did a good job of of cleaning it up, without the use of a buffer.

Thanks for the comments guys, appreciated. Roger, I wanted to get the rust off without losing the character that comes with age, it would not look right all shined up in my opinion.
Sellers before pictures giving an idea of what I was working with.

John, that is a real beauty, and on the hefty side at 3 7/8".

Eye-catching bolsters on that one John.

Thank you all, Ike it is the largest in my small collection of vintage Washington jacks, little bit bigger and I think it would be an English Jack.

Here it is next to a Great Eastern.

That, in itself, is a great photo! The Miller bone is beautful, but that smooth bone of the GEC is quite fetching, as well. Thanks for the size comparison.

I haven't visited this thread in a while and I have missed a lot of knives. A lot of great knives.

Nice pile of knives you have there, Roger.
Is that a gravity knife between the two hunters?
