All About Pocket Knives

Mail Call !!!!!! And then there were 9. Got me another German Shell Puller. Sadly sometime during it's life it passed through the hands of The Grinder Man. Not only did the get the blade looks like the tang has been hit also removing the maker. Either way it's got nice stag and is a shell puller so I'll take it.

Great looking bunch Outkast. Too bad about the grinder monkey. But still a knice knife. All I have ever seen are for 12 and 16. I know that 16 is very popular in Europe. Have you ever seen one for any other gage?

I have one that is marked WHITBY Foreign that is 12/20. Then I also have one marked Aquila Scarperia which is Italian and the only one I've ever seen that was marked 20/24. Aside from the handle material the WHITBY is almost identical.

Thanks for the reply. 20/24 very unusual. I always enjoy your post and collection of the shell pullers.

Beautiful old knife, even if the grinder man has got hold of it. And it’s even made for my favorite shotgun gauge!!! My oldest two boys hunt with me now and I have them shooting 16 gauges just like I do.
