I have been on a "stag jag" lately, and to partially satiate that, I picked up this Klaas stockman on the exchange.... it's a NKCA knife.... a very rare one. it's one of only 12,000, so it should be a great investment purchase.... 
The stag is very nice. Rough enough for a good grip, but not uncomfortable. Good character, IMHO, of course.
The main blade is a spear point, almost like a long pen blade... and the secondaries are sheepfoot and pen, all with long pulls....
The spring on the sheepfoot is slightly proud when opened, but not annoyingly so. That blade is slightly stiff on opening, but I'm still working on flushing the joints. I cannot see any evidence that this one was ever used. I plan to change that.....
This German knife feels really good in hand... I'm not sure what to call it... sort of a humpback semi-gunstock stockman? A rose by any other name..... etc....

New dress for the Queen!
To say the least, I was less than happy with my first Country Cousin. Despite the fact that an honest seller would NEVER have sold it (a shortcoming of living far away...) and that she had been made the friday evening late before summer holidays, I dig the pattern and the D2 blade. A real match to GEC's 71
Thanks to Âchillepattada, she made a trip to Sardinia to receive new covers in micarta. And some tweaks to make her at long least a decent knife. A new life!

That is a pretty dramatic clip on that blade... nice horn covers, almost like butterscotch and chocolate...

I really like the new red covers.... all edges rounded, looks great! I much prefer that blade shape to the standard sodbuster, which has too much belly for my taste.... much like myself....New dress for the Queen!

Drew, it looks good on you! Technically, it's a fancy cattle knife, but I think of it as a Eureka frame, though slightly altered.

Thank you! Cosimo did a great job and the micarta is as nice to hold as the original delrin! I share your opinion, including my own belly!I really like the new red covers.... all edges rounded, looks great!

Hard to beat a GEC Barlow
Nice !YAY! Got my very first "Charlow" this week!
Well ... as a matter of fact my first Barlow as well. And i got it from "The Master" himself
Not exactly the Ebony one I was, and still am, looking for ... but this is a proof that "Ebony and Ivory" (or Bone in this case) make a good pair
Northwoods are KeepersJust arrived today!
Nice Folder
