I've never seen an Ulster jumbo scout. Very cool. Just wondering, how big is the knife with the blades closed? Here's another one of mine, etched ULSTER CAMP KNIFE.

STAG CHAMPAGNE PATTERN I understand Cap Lifters were not used in pocket knives until after 1918.

Nice knife, Barry. A real treasure.
I will confess I have been using caplifters from the early 60s. Don't tell anybody

That sounds about right because the bottle cap was patented by William Painter on February 2, 1892.


I'm rather partial to this bone handle Ulster medium jack I picked up back in February.

Barry - that Whittler is awesome - ::tu:: ::tu:: ... almost looks like Ulster took the master blade from an elephant toe nail and put it as a master on a whittler :) ... too cool!!!
