John , that’s a absolutely gorgeous piece!! A Sword brand to boot . Can only dream of one of those for my Sword brand collection . Only the second one have ever seen .
This whole thread is full of some of the best knives have ever seen . Thanks to all who’ve been posting and sharing here .
I'm curious as why some Sword Brand are stamped Sword Brand and others are etched Sword Brand and stamped Camillus ???s

Just different years???
Believe you are correct . Not sure of years ,maybe someone can clue us in . Have some Sword brand with milled steel liners and some not . They’re the same model and blade configuration , but different liners and pins ?? Sta - Sharp was the same way with Sears. Some had etch and no Camillus tang stamp and some didn’t . Sorry couldn’t help more . Take care .

I had an opportunity to buy another in good condition and didn't, wish I had and I could have let you have it back.

I pretty much always regret not buying ones I passed on, sometimes it was the money though.

Glad to share them with you all, thanks for looking. I've certainly been blessed with good friends alerting me of knives on eBay and introducing me to custom knife makers.

I wish, I didn't have between $2,000 - $3,000 to get in the bidding, but that's an amazing knife . The kind that brings out the high rollers.

Thanks for preservation of it's acknowledgement.

I was surprised it didn't have rat tails. I don't think I'd trade mine for it, mine's older , but that's a dandy . :D

It's odd that both had damage to the end of the pruning blades. I like that spey design that one, it's what I patterned my GEC after.

Man! These Farmer's Jack knives are simply put very beautiful knives. ::nod:: But I can't seem to find any of them over here. ::hmm:: I did find one. A Victorinox. Didn't look as nice as these with bone handles though.

Cattauragus farmer at 3 3/4" and not a wharncliff frame , a little unusual. Although almost 1/4" smaller than most Farmers , it boasts one of the largest pruning blades.
Outstanding! And unique I believe! ::tu::

thanks JP, Wade and Tom. Here's a scan where I caught that Hammer Brand etch. I was enamored with that etch and the Tree Brand. I wish I had a Boker etched.
