LanG, beautiful bones, pretty knife, nailbreakers usually mean tight, solid lock up. That really turns me on. Nice one.
Sunknife I've never seen one like it before, or since. Love the grilled bolsters, the action sweet, pinches open, antler, fit in the hand etc. Glad I jumped on it when I had the chance. Never regret that one. Stole it and tickles me to this day for what I paid. Homer, thanks again.

Those MOP knives are beauties, Joe. But that Cattaraugus is just WOW! Something about the aged carbon steel and aged bone on that knife make it more attractive than a brand new knife, in my opinion. Very good photography too!

Keep 'em coming, guys...this is so much better than browsing through old knife catalogs or surfing eBay. Great photography of some very beautiful knives. Is anyone a professional photographer, by any chance? There are a number of truly professional grade photos here.

Ouch!!
I know I have posted this before, but here is again in honor of a dying breed. I do not have very many Queens: about a half dozen, but everyone of them is a really fine knife!

I have a couple, 2016 Case Seahorse Whittler in Walnut Rogers Bone & a '94 Buck #310 Whittler in Black Sawcut Delrin, (US-made, discontinued). I use the Buck daily, at 3" closed it fits my front pocket and/or watch pocket perfectly, and I carry the 4" Seahorse in a belt sheath at least once a week. The big nasty looking Wharncliffe blade attracted me to that one.
