I figured you probably knew, but you never know who else might benefit. :)

Here's an old steel Sheffield England marked big 4 5/8" rat tail jack , with some dandy bone.

Ike, those pocket knives are attractive, pretty, handsome, good-looking, nice-looking, pleasing, alluring, as pretty as a picture, lovely, charming, delightful, appealing, engaging, ravishing, gorgeous, heavenly, stunning, arresting, glamorous, irresistible, graceful, elegant, exquisite, magnificent, divine, knockouts, easy on the eyes, and smashing. ::tu:: ::tu::

All very nice Knives Ike,
Now the question is have I learned anything over the last year at AAPK?
Is the far right Camillus a Farmers Jack?
If so where is Lyle?

Thank you Kerry!

Steve, Lyle probably has 4 or 5 Camillus FJs like that in his "junk drawer".

C'mon Floyd, it's just the Renwax look. I did a little routine drop of oil, and shine, and just had to take a picture. It's like any other family portrait, you try to hide the flaws, and turn your head so the scar doesn't show. :?
