I've tried to keep my Hubertus collection down to the W. Germany etch as much as possible, but always wanted a tang stamped model. I really love the little Hubertus, so when this tang stamped Liliput with bolster stamp showed up, I was double thrilled! https://i.imgur.com/AMMyAho.jpg https://i.imgur...

…Thank you so much for your kind words, Ian! So glad you’re back and involved again!

Glad it arrived safe and sound, Luke. That’s great and you sound thrilled! I too love the Rams Horn. I hadn’t realized that Hubertus calls all their Rams Horn pieces “BigHorn”. Makes sense though. I have a Liliput size with Ram scales and also etched BigHorn model. (I call it “Little BigHorn” ).

Thanks! Very kind.

I foolishly traded away my traditional stag model Hubertus Guardian, but these 2 remain in my collection. I'm not even sure what the scale materials are...

I always take the opportunity to share a pic of my small collection of The Leverletto...

Wow! That's neat and new to me. But, it's on a 1950's Japanese picklock for sure.

Thank you, one and all, for all the kind words and looking at my knife! Eric, it's cool it was once in your collection. I'm intrigued that you said you sold it to someone putting a set together. Did you mean the double stamps in various sizes? I'd sure be interested to know if the double stamps have...

At the risk of completely boring you all with yet another classic, black horn stiletto, this 8" specimen has a few "unique" build traits. Not that we haven't seen them before, but my first with the double stamp. 8" (20cm), octagon locktab, liners have no cutouts, dovetail spring. Stamped Edwin Jay o...

Happy Birthday, Jeremy! Enjoy your day!

A very Happy Birthday to you, Allen! Enjoy!

Nice old tang stamped model, Jim!

The problem is it looks like every other German shell puller. This is the first I’ve heard jigged bone. I always thought it was just stag.

Here's a German one...



..And even an Italian model would pass the average eye...

Dana, just to be clear: you’re looking to trade your 13” Rosco picklock for any other 13” picklock with yellow/blond scales? I’m only asking because your Rosco is already a gorgeous knife. It’s just the scale color that you’re not liking? I assume you’re looking for another vintage piece, not modern?
