I'll agree with doglegg, not a bad one on the page but being a bit prejudiced, bighomer wins the prize. Love any of the old Queens!

I think those are Ostrich eggs, so yes, that is a very large knife!

It is a Big'un It has a very "heavy" feel to it... it a good way...

Nice BIG knife, Dog, too bad bout' the "other" blade/s!
Too bad for me, maybe not for you though!

Thanks M&M I am thinking 'bout making it more "Marco-Friendly" ....

As much as I appreciate you accommodating my every whim, Dog, I'm thinking your plan ain't such a good one!
Should you go through with it, you'll wind-up with a non-knife, more like a handle actually! lol!

Love the Doctors knife. I bet it's a Bulldog. I have one like it but with a Crack in the handle.

Yes sir, it is a BD.

That is a workhorse G.D. Was that made by another company for Keen Kutter? ... I guess I am wondering if it is a Camillus or Schrade produce model...

At any rate that is a top-notch EDC

I like that Schrade Cattle Knife, sturdy and well used!

Love the Doctors knife and the feel of smoothed out over time and use stag (and of course bone ).

I am reading this book, it is about a Vietnam search and rescue attempt when a navigator aboard an EB-66 aircraft shot down behind North Vietnamese lines. It was the "largest, longest, and most complex search-and-rescue" operation during the Vietnam War.

But it doesn't make any sense so far... and Vietnam hasn't even been brought up in the book yet...

Got this from everyone's favorite Ebay seller "Dusty Duck Knives". It was pictured with a crack near the pin and when I got it the piece was completely broken off. I busted out the crazy glue and whala - good as new! I think my repair job would make TMK jealous....

Merry dystopian X-mas!

Thanks K.Z. You can fill that crack in (look at the repair thread for more ideas) with epoxy and mixing paint, sawdust, coffee grounds, or whatever you find that matches best to the color of the scales. Let the epoxy mixture run into the crack and wipe away excess... sometimes it looks purdy good! sometimes it looks like... ... Here is a picture of an EDC trapper that I worked on when I 1st started using the epoxy, not the greatest repair (I think I do a better job now) but good enough for EDC use.

Great shot on the wood. Had an old cub scout just like that. Lost it. Great memory though.


Couple Schrades.
