A Few That I completed The Past Several Weeks

During the past few weeks I've had a bit more free time available (like a lot of people) and spent a good part of it in my workshop. I made a big dent in the "future projects" box and the following are a few of them. All of these were rehandle jobs, and since I had them taken apart, they got the "full monte". I will probably be putting most of these on the fleabay soon, so if any of these strike your fancy, feel free to make me an offer.

First up are 2 "USA" cattle knives. These had badly shrinking black composite scales and I think may have been made for the US Army by one of the big knife manufacturers in maybe the 50's or 60's. The red one is Culpepper's rudy red american standard, and the green one was something I think Culpepper made for the holidays. I never found a knife I wanted to put new scales on with tree engravings, but I had a sudden inspiration to use them flipped around backwards.

The next are 3 Case knives - 6318SS, 6292, and 3299 1/2 "railsplitter". The 18 has good snap in all 3 blades, the 92 has great snap, but as you can see, the clip is a bit short, and the poor old 99 has a clip that is quite worn down and no snap at all.

Continued:
The last 2 are a Boker USA 9885 and Camillus stockman (with no pattern stamp). The Boker also has the green Christmas tree scales that I also filipped around backwards. I think I may be buying some more of the smooth green Christmas tree scales if Culpepper puts them on sale.

Those do look really nice, Herb!
I just placed an order from Culpeppers, and wish now that I had ordered more Christmas Tree on sale. It looks great flipped over like that!
