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.

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?

Ah, I was asleep at the switch! Thanks. On a side note, I'm sure many Hubertus collectors have noticed the change of time period that the etch looked more like "Hubectus" (as does yours), then got more definition to Hubertus by a clearer separation of the letters as time went on. That would make yo...

Beautiful knives! I'm also a Pascotto fan!

I have the same shell puller (extractor). Jndiana Extra, imitation stag. I was told it was a pretty rare piece. But, like with everything we label "rare", someone always shows us 5 more!

Looks really clean.

...according to the above chart, 1988 to present.
