Tim

Tim, Monk, Bill. Great eye candy.

Ordered this on Wednesday morning from Red Hill Cutlery and it came today. Bear & Sons 'Wharncliffe Stag Bone Lockback'. Box says "Genuine India Stag", but you can see from the pictures, it's not. All the listings say "Sambar Stag Bone". I'm not sure about the "Sambar" part but I would say the handles are "Staged Bone", jigged to look like Stag.

Anyway, it's a nice little knife. Made in USA, of course. My favorite size, 3-5/8" closed. The Wharncliffe blade locks up tight when opened and has good snap when it's closed. Pretty smooth action after a couple of drops of Quick Release (Thank you Scott. A little shameless plug there.). Pretty sharp out of the box and the run-up is as good as any production knife I've seen lately. The only negative I can see is the bolsters. I would like them to be a little thicker to more blend in with the handles. It won't get carried or sharpened but it looks like it would do anything I would ask of it.

Jerry...She's pretty. ....I know what you mean about the bolsters....I have about half a dozen B&S knives.and I feel the same way about the lot.
Not only are they to thin...but I would like them better rounded off more..instead of being so flat.

egg-zactly. Still a nice knife in spite of that but it could be better with little to no extra cost.

Gonna be great Jerry! I like it already man.

Nice lookin' Bear ya got there Jerry....looks kinda similar to one I picked up a while back! On mine with the Rosewood handles the bolsters seem to be a bit more well suited to the handles, as the rosewood scales aren't nearly as thick as that nice fat bonestag you've got going on there. I do like that bonestag that Bear uses though, very pleasing to the eye and has a definite heavy duty stag-esqe feeling to it in the hand..
Nice pick up!

Yours is what prompted me to buy it Mike. There ya go, taking money out of my pocket again. Thanks a lot bub.

I had to do some seaching to find it. I may have gotten the last Stag Bone Red Hill had.

Yep, I think it's contageous

Sounds purdy good to me!

Now back to reality..............Thanks Perry

Cutty, Cutty, Cutty. I think you've bumped your head.

sebere dain bramage Jerry, from banging my head while looking at all of these great knives that I can't afford.

Picked this Western up at a yard sale this morning. There were several knives, mostly junk, but this one was kinda' hiddin' in the corner of a box. The guy said $10. Didn't have the heart to dicker with him. Don't think it has been sharpened, only mistreated. I believe it will clean up nicely and I could probably get my money back. Treefarmer

Another contender for AAPK lucky find of the day award.

That is a beauty Phil!!!

I will double your money and you don't even have to clean it!

Seriously, those Westerns are my favorite folding hunters.
The steel is without equal IMHO.

Excellent find! It will probably be your new favorite deer skinning knife!
