You are indeed correct, sir Ivoryman...Ram it is. (you'll undoubtedly also recognize the antler tip display stand it's resting on as well ::nod:: )

Does that blade etch say "Made in Italy" on it? What's the brand? Recognized the antler, guessed the horn.

Right again, sir. That there's a Viper made in Maniago, Italy.

Dave, that is an impressive spread! The 3 on the left with the Saddlehorn style frame and the larger swedge clip blades caught my eye (especially the Wilbert). ::tu::

Some of my lockback hunting knives - the Case and the Buck were both used this season to skin and butcher deer. OH

Newest addition to the herd. Can't believe the price I paid for this 'un (cheap).
Almost a shame to put it on EDC duty, but that's what I got it for ::nod::

Contrary to what you may have been led to believe, size does not necessarily matter...at least not to this little Al Mar stag lock back! Too cute by half yet still fully as functional as the big boys.

Picked this up today for around $15. Browning, Germany. Lock and release are smooth as silk. Probably going to be a carry knife on and off. ___Dave

I hope that being a newbie nobody minds me just jumping in her and making myself at home. But I love pocket knives and like to talk about them and see and share photos of them. First is a Schrade 7OT next a 5OT and last but not least a Buck Light.

Thanks Gdogg, the buck button is ancient ivory walrus tooth. I cross sectioned and polished it up. Been heavily mineralized from hundreds or thousands of years buried in an Eskimo dump/midden so it has that antler bark look but it's ivory.
