All About Pocket Knives

Photos from ebay. What it is? Who did this?

Looks like a numbered Limited Edition Rifle Shield Series Texas Toothpick, made by Blue Grass. First numbered one I've seen.

My impression has been that Blue Grass makes nothing but paperwork. There is probably a thread on this that might show me to be wrong. I think the knives they brokered were made by Queen?

This is what the creators of this knife wanted to show us, but:
This model has never been on the Blue Grass website, although at different times all 26 releases of the "Rifle Shield" series that were released from 1988 to 2010 were listed there.
All models (except the first two) in this series were packaged in white boxes.
All models (except the first two) in this series had "W 15 xxxxx 1/2" type numbers.
All models in this series have a bone or stag handle and did not have serialization.
The tang stamp of this knife is different from all the Winchester knives I have seen.
And finally, the most important thing - this knife looks worse than any Winchester knife made by the Queen.

Would someone go to all the trouble of creating a counterfeit box and paperwork to go along with a counterfeit knife? I guess I would avoid it at this stage.

I’m with vit_213 in this one. Sure don’t look like bluegrass or queen quality to me!

Maybe this is own production of Blue Grass?
