S&M SAMBAR STAG

[wazu013]

Here's a Large Coke bottle with Sambar Stag scales. I was wondering how many other pattertns S&M came out with back in 2005? This one is one of my favorites.

What a coincidence. It was just last week I picked up the 'Split Back-spring Carpenter's Whittler' from that series.

They're gorgeous knives. Congratulations on that Coke Bottle.

2005 was Series XV and they released:

• 151 116 -- Black Lip Mother of Pearl Mini-Toothpick
• 032 117 -- Genuine Sambar Stag Reverse Peanut Gentleman's Knife
• 033 163 -- Genuine Sambar Stag Rail Splitter
• 033 448 -- Genuine Sambar Stag Split Back-spring Carpenter's Whittler
• 031 302 -- Genuine Sambar Stag Coke Bottle
• 032 127 -- Genuine Sambar Stag Single Back-spring Yankee Muskrat

Thanks Jerry
Isn't that stag something? I am a sucker for all full sized hunters as well.

The stag in that series is really something, at least the one example I have. The stag is what sold me on the knife and I see yours looks just as good.

Hafta' ask....what is a 'Yankee' muskrat (032 127)? One I've not heard of.

Love the stag, btw

Gotta tell ya Royal, not a clue. Some name Queen marketing came up with? Kinda cool but I've never heard it before either. (which in the grand scheme of things doesn't mean squat)

Gotcha
Still learning all the different pattern names. Or at least what different co's call the same basic design.

[jerryd6818]

I'm no genius by any stretch of the imagination but I've learned a lot since I began haunting the halls of AAPK. Recognizing patterns and blade shapes are two I've learned. I still don't get 'em all but it gets better as time passes and I see more knives.

[royal0014]

Yep. Browse the halls of fleabay......tickles me what some people call 'barlow'. Most don't even know it's not a brand name

That's some real eye candy there, Waz. Not really sure though where they're going with that "single spring muskrat" business. I've never seen a muskrat that wasn't single spring.

[carrmillus]

i may be all wet, but in the camillus knives, the muskrat has rounded bolsters, and the yankee muskrat has bolsters that are squared off..................

John, you are a font of information. Thank you.
