Yes, it's rusty. ::facepalm::
Yes, the master clip is a bit short. ::facepalm::
But, my goodness, what a sweet pattern! ::tu::
I have never seen a Robeson cattle knife like this one.
I'm not buying Robeson knives anymore, but somebody here should jump on this one.

I cannot copy Auctiva hosted photos off Ebay..................

I do have its two blade little brother. Don't you wish the Ebay knife's clip blade still had this shape?

Sweet knife you pictured and not a bad little cattle knife in the auction Charlie. Looks like a HOK as you say. Would make a great EDC knife and wouldn't be hard to clean it up a bit. It should go for some decent money but with the nature of an auction and eBay who knows.

Also a good example of how the knife companies use one set of handle dies to cut several patterns from. Same shape, bolsters and shield but two distinctly different knives. Love the handles on both of them!

His knives always seem to be for parts or have warts some where,and he sells a lot of them. I may bid ,if it doesn't sell for too much.For an EDC.

Well, I can.

Lyle -- Plus he has a big following so I don't expect that knife to be a bargain.

Wow. I like it. Looks just like the kind of knife I'd pack too. I have a real weakness for HOK's. Just like that old pump shotgun in the rack at the lgs with all the blueing gone, stock finish peeling, and a barrel long ago cut down by some old bird hunter.

They have an appeal all their own, stories to tell, they've been there and done that. I've fallen victim to many of them, shotguns and knives.....

This knife appears right, BUT I personally won't buy or bid on anything ole doodle sells.

I can assure you there's nothing wrong with the knife, other than it's rusty used condition..
Cannot speak for Doodle Froodle.

I would buy it in a heart beat, if it was not on ebay, and priced fairly.
