Missed this, gotta say I really like that Ulster, the bone color kills and the slanted, fluted bolsters, the shield, the jigging, the long pull on the sheep. All the bells and whistles and then some. Great piece. You lucky dog you.

I will echo Ivoryman... Fantastic old cattle knives.

Now that is a knife with character.

Put a name on this three back spring, slanted pinched bolsters, punch blade, fully etched Utica whittler.

Very sweet!!!

Great knife

Very nice!

Gorgeous knife, JKB!


Keen Kutter says this one is a Kattle Knife, but for me, I prefer the cigar frame.

Gorgeous bones on that Ulster, love that kind of color. Congrats.

Thanks for the comments, I have to keep posting this one for all the new members.

Thanks Ivoryman. My latest is a Russell.

Some fantastic knives being shown. And some wonderful bone.
I fished this one from the bay recently. An old Made in the USA Sears made by Camillus. Has a piece missing from one of the handles. Thanks for looking.

Great old cattle knives, fellers!

These two would foot the bill as Cattleman's.

rr,

That Utica is special! Here's an AXEL NILSSON, "SWEDISH STEEL", Germany. Odd that it's not marked "Germany". Pre-tariff? If so the celluloid is very early. Does not appear to be rehandled. 3-3/8", nickel silver bolsters, brass lined, very snappy, all three blades. J.O'.

Very nice, J.O'.


Thanks, dog! They're two old survivors but still up for the task.

Agree

You have the “special” punch blade in the Jack Knife Ben?

It has a single indent, JKB, not the double that I think old Napanochs had. I'm pretty sure this knife started life as a Robeson.

The match striker nail pull had me fooled. I can still see some real quality in the knife.

I was looking through this reprinted Winchester catalog, a whole page of Cattleman's.
