Wow, that's the Katz' meow ! I have a soft spot for the Japanese surgical stainless! I heavily used the 1970's Parker-Frost stockman. They were my summertime knives, and I used my old Case XX and Camillus carbon steel stockman in the winter. Here is my newest stockman , traded included a muskrat of the same # 93 pattern. This is a mastodon bark ivory stockman with three blades, of course. It is marked as a prototype. I not a big fan of the muskrat pattern, although similar and decided to place it on the 'bay today.

Here's the muskrat , now I should like these, right? They are basicly a stock type pattern with no pen or sheepfoot blade, but with two master blades. I have carried them , but found them limited to filet fish and skinning critters. A sheepfoot , pen and coping expands the uses of a typical stock knife, but with a little more bulk and width. This one is a prototype and like the #93 stockman a display case prisoner , which will never see a blue jean pocket!

HI, Rome! I've looked around for a Chicago Cutlery stockman like yours and, tho I've found some, they're not like yours. The impression that I get is that they don't take the pocketknife market very seriously. I wonder how that works with them? Perhaps the only pocketknives they produce are short runs for special occasions. Oh, well, there's always Henckels ...

Mastodon bark ivory? I've never seen anything like it. It makes for a VERY impressive knife. Lots of stuff to look at & feel in that material. I do agree about the muskrat -- altho the "modified" pattern is more interesting. It only works for me when it has two different blades and they're chunky, like a railsplitter. I'm sure that pattern has a name, but it doesn't come to me. Is that a "moose" or is that with two of the same blade? Levine says "Texas Jack". Thanx for sharing.

Donald, as far as i know they have quit making pocket knives. I found this one at a local plant nursery.

They still had a few different models in stock, I don't think it sold real well.
