I got the stag stockman. Love the knife, very solid and sharpens nice. Only compalint is it does not have matching stag sides. One side is noticeably darker then the other.

I only have this one. A premium scout with ebony scales. It's a really nice knife.

That scout has been a big temptation to me, but I already have a Camillus Official.
I'm not a club member but ...
My AGR knives are all very good fit and finish, and worthy of such a big name in knives.
The extreme penknife is less than two inches, in VG-10 with titanium bolsters and ironwood slabs screwed on. It came with a little leather sheath. (Japan)
The Funny Knife is a replica of an old promo knife with aluminium handle. (Japan)
I have an identical barlow made by Boker, and AGR's is made in Germany, with the same bear-trap snap as the Boker.

My father had several Russel Knives. They are not cheap. They contract out with just about anyone with quality. They even owned Hen & Rooster at one time I think.
You will get solid quality in any Russel Knife. Prices seem to steap to me.
I have been meaning to get one of those "Funny Folders"
