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.

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

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.

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. ::shrug::

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..................
