These two "new" zoo residents arrived today. The first one is a single blade, 4 tools, "Deer Head" pocket knife. It is stamped ROSTFREI (I know what it means). It needed no cleaning. The second one and all the way from Bulgaria, is a single blade, 4 tools, "Deer Head" pocket knife. It is stamped ROSTFREI - INOXYDABLE - M.I.GERMANY. It needed no cleaning. I took some pictures and here are the knives.

Today, the zoo welcomes it's two latest residents. An Imperial, "Moose Head" fixed blade knife and a Colonial, "Moose Head" fixed blade knife. The Colonial came with the original sheath. Neither of the knives required any cleaning. I took some pictures and here they are.

This morning I'm adding this knife to the zoo. It's a PASTOR ALEMAN (German Shepherd), single blade, pocket knife. It has the dog head profile on the tang stamp. It also says and has an illustration of a dragon on the handles, so it qualifies for zoo residency. It measures 5 3/8" closed and 9 1/2" open. This knife "brand" is part of the Imperial and Colonial, Mexico story/connection. I gave the blade a bit of a cleaning, but left the handles alone. I didn't want to risk ruining the graphics. I took some pictures and here is the knife.

The latest addition to the zoo arrived today. It is a single blade, 4 tools, "Deer Head" pocket knife. It is stamped MADE IN GERMANY. It needed a cleaning badly and it received one. I took some pictures and here is the knife.

Very nice Skip. But I believe the amount of Elk you have acquired now qualify as a herd. ::tu::
