I do believe is bone from Geo. Schrade Co. switchblades
That is correct, as far as my knowledge goes.

This knife sports some dynamite dark-green bone that's dyed and jigged by Shigeru Tozaki, a master cutler in his own right and admirer of Tony's knives. You can see Shigeru's work at http://www8.ocn.ne.jp/~s-tozaki/
Vince shot me a call this afternoon and talked about the different jigging patterns and how the old Remington bone, or Schrade bone if you will, is peach seed style, while other bone used will have a different pattern for the most part. Color can vary of course
New, old, no matter really, I'm just looking forward to getting it in hand.
Thanks Vince, always a pleasure to talk and catch up.
Well...I received the stockman today and it's everything I expected and then some. I really like the look of this old bone and it should really pop once I get some lemon oil for it (see, I've been paying attention).
Here's the "VCM Special In Hand" shot
Nice Sway Back Jack in old Bone...I love the stove pipe Kicks
Very nice. What do you mean by "stove pipe kicks"?
