IMO Looks remarkably similar to current production model 78 available in black delrin (78B) or rosewood (78W).

Tooth pick and tweezer tools

hey S_K, hav you ever seen a J. Rodgers etched "Bunny Knife"? It has the same clip blade (same shape) as this knife but the secondary is a small pen blade, it had black cell handles in a barehead configuration.

The seller says: "Handles are Red Colored Jigged Delrin. Both do have Shrinkage to them by the bolsters with gaps there and some shrikage to the ends of the handles."
I have never heard of Delrin shrinking. In fact I believe the fact that it didn't shrink was one of the reasons that it was so popular for knife handles. Perhaps the handles are of an earlier type of plastic.
If it is a current production, the handles are very poorly fit.

aint that the truth
MM I have seen the Rodgers 'bunny' knife before. I Wouldn't mind having one myself. I think you are right Dale. Delrin would not shrink like that. I have not seen any knife with the bits of scale attached to tweezers and toothpick like that. Has anyone?

One would think that if it was done at the factory the pieces of handle on the tools would be the same color.
Just my thoughts on it.

JMO, as always.
I believe this "Legendary" (

) eBay seller left two letters out of the description that would make it much more accurate...the letters P and I.
No offense Ralph, as I'm sure you Florida boys
are STUDS.

Yeah but those Florida boys are really transplanted from somewhere else, not good ole "Florida Crackers" as we call ourselves..
