Got Winchesters? Old or new?
I'm kinda surprised no one talks much about Winchester knives. I remember a time when old Winchesters knives were one of the revered knife brands.

I bought this Winchester Whittler from Dave Scott, the owner of Blue Grass Cutlery in Manchester, Ohio. It came out of his factory right there.
That's a neat little one Billy!
Actually two Winchesters both imported. The one on the bottom is much older and I had done some modification on it, using a device made by a member to try and turn it into an automatic. It attached between the thumbstuds, well one day in a rush which I usually am in and with to other hands busy I grabbed the Winchester with my thrid hand hoping for an auto open....well the device and the thumbstuds flew off in waist high grass never to be found again, short of metal detection. the Winchester on top I bought just as a replacement for my failed experiment.
Very nice Winchesters Steve
Thank you Ken, inexpensive but a good everyday farm tool!

This is my favorite Winchester, in my collection. The last Christmas present from my wife.
It sure is Billy I have seen that in the SMKW catalog I think.

The picture doesn't do it justice. If you could see it in person. I think these were made by "Blue Grass Cutlery". I'm not sure.
