I can see why you favor that 44. Great looking Stag.

Thanks! Honestly, it was a very tough decision. There was a lot of great stag on that run.

I love the stag 44's, this years Rendezvous they brought out a box filled with stag 44 S knives, many had great stag, picked up 3 of them, one I gave to a neighbor. Wish I had picked up a few more.

What does 44 S mean?

 

[Johnnythefox]

That looks easy to pinch open?

 

[Johnnythefox]

You are correct, John.

Great knife. Nice spread.

What does 44 S mean?

The "S" usually stands for "Store" Model.
The knife might have a small defect, usually not very noticeable, and they keep them for sale in their store rather than shipping them to retailers.

Thank you John.

What does 44 S mean?

S means a store knife, possibly have a fault, talked to Bill and asked him why so many stag 44's marked S as I did not see anything wrong with them at all. He stated that at the end of the production line is an oil bath that the knives go in. Stag being a natural material sometimes changes color in the bath so the put them aside and don't sell them, he has found after the knife sits awhile the stag reverts back to its original color. So all these 44's really had nothing wrong with them.

This thread has been idle for far too long. Here's where I'm at on collecting Gunstocks which has become my favorite pattern by a wide margin. Still looking for that mythical stag 44. Once I lock that down I may start looking for some 76's but those are even harder to find. I had 2 Robeson (queen made) gunstocks at one time and for reasons I can't explain sold them off. They were extremely well made.

Great collection! I'm glad you revived this thread cause I have never seen it. I'm actually waiting on the jig bone with brass bolsters 44 to complete my set, but when I get it in the mail I'll post a pic.

Can’t wait to see your whole crew Tyler! As you can see I had to go scope out a sweet user coco 44 from ephsea to replace the gem that now resides in your holster. Win-Win!

I’ve blossomed the Gunstock crew this year to six. It’s become a favorite pattern. This thread needs some love anyway. I feel like M majorpain1 could do some damage here .



The crew includes awesome gifts from Jeremy sbh06 (Fox) and Rufus1949 (K’roo). Thanks guys!
