Thank you my friend!!
I’m glad my pics do it some justice lol...
You would have a field day with this one and your camera work!! I can only imagine
@5K Qs
Thank you 3 and 1/2 times Gary
The duelling Robies are an awesome theme for JJ and I....
The first strawberry you mention is a 40s-50s grand daddy bone barlow, snappy and strong. The second, a peanut... almost factory and again in bone and in the same time frame.
The KA-BAR is built some where between the 20s to very early 50s in stag as the Olean N.Y. stamps begin to disappear, and featuring nickel pins and a twin pinned shield. It’s a half stockman and almost perfect other than a tight spring pin crack.
I’ll be with this for the better part of 48hrs, going into into Stagurday, some more pics for your pleasure....

Thanks a lot, Gary!!! Robeson is one of my favorite old knife makers!Really enjoy the "dueling Robesons" you and Gus are posting, JJ!
Send those awful things to me before you get hurtI'm carrying this hideous pair: Smooth White bone over brass liners.The horror!
Obviously, a verdigris explosion is imminent!
Thanks, Jeff. Great news indeed as a new family member is always celebrated here.
I appreciated the well wish my friend.
I don't use the word awesome lightly or often, (unlike many of todays youth), but hey, that knife is awesome, Jim.Northwoods Stockman has duty today ...
Awesome picture John.Just got back from my early morning fishing trip... the fish didn't cooperate much.
Another awesome knife, Tim. Love the smooth bone and single blade frame on that one.This one ended up staying in pocket all week. Forgot how well the single blade 48 carries. Have a great weekend everyone.
One last comment on awesomeness, I promise. What an awesome pair, Rachel.I'm carrying this hideous pair: Smooth White bone over brass liners.
Obviously, a verdigris explosion is imminent!
Thank you Greg !!! ... it's a typical Northwoods. Built like a tank with great F/FI don't use the word awesome lightly or often, (unlike many of todays youth), but hey, that knife is awesome, Jim.
A marvelous piece of French cutlery, awesome ebony too!FRIDAY ... The Ebony Ball is today !!! WOooHOoo
No25 in T12 steel, just in by UPS
Only took NONTRON 500yrs to make it to my pocket LOL
MAN ... THIS THING arrived SHARP too. WoWser
That jigging looks like Queen made? love it
a try today. Given size of knife I wanted a belt loop to keep it upright. I also asked him to make it along the lines of a Tom Threeperson’s holster so that I could easily and quickly withdraw knife from my pocket.
That Rosewood & shield looking amazing.
Thank you JJ. For years I've talked myself in and out of a Nontron purchase and so glad I finally pulled the trigger.A marvelous piece of French cutlery, awesome ebony too!
Greg, I think it very well could be Queen made (that's my guess too). I've had the knife for 6yrs or so and it had languished on a vendor's shelf for who knows how long.That jigging looks like Queen made? love it
Sorry you didn't get a bite John, but it still sounds like a great way to start the dayJust got back from my early morning fishing trip... the fish didn't cooperate much.
