Lee, The bird hook has a long shaft for reaching into the birds cavity. Button hooks typically have a short shaft, the length of a pen blade.

Thanks Dan, Dimitri Lee, Bill, Roger and Barry. It was super stiff opening everything but they are starting to loosen up a bit.

The knife itself isn't that rare,but with "St.Louis World's Fair"etch,I'm guessing there ain't too many floating around.

Roger that is very nice and with that blade etch has to be super rare! Does it work?

Nice Bill

... I do believe it is horn

... Side note - Interestingly I have recently read about blond tortoise shell (from the underbelly shell of a tortoise) but have never seen a knife handle use it - that would be the only other thing those handles could be but again never have seen it used and only bringing up blond tortoise shell as an aside... I truly doubt this handle is blond tortoise and would bet the house on horn

That is a beautiful little knife, Bill.
Looks like the bolsters took a little rubbing; Glad they left that blade alone.

Thanks Joe, I oiled the spring and wiped the bolsters with mothers mag polish.

I really like splotchy character in a scale and the horn does that. I like the colors too, reminds me of Apaloosa bone, and a cool looking knife. Congrats.

Thanks Dimitri, I really like the handles. I have a George Woodhead with very similar handles, they just have that old look.

Great looking knife, love those kind of bones, and bet that old steel is sweet. EZ too. Great one.
