That knife is the same vintage as me... old. 😆😆 In Western's pamphlet (Knife Nostalgia) it states that the use of bone for handle material ended in 1961 with the introduction of "acetal resin" (Delrin). With that stamp and the Delrin covers I'd bet 1961-62 would be a good guess. The 062 is classic. You don't see many of them that age without a broken tip on the main blade. Both of mine have shortened tips, so extra good on your 062 AND you got the original (correct) sheath. Beautiful job on the clean up.
Before the Buck 110's started showing up in our hunting camp (~1974) the Western 062 was THE most common folding hunter I'd seen used, probably because every hardware and sporting goods store in this area carried Western knives. My Grandfather preferred the 39 and 66 pattern fixed blades for hunting. Almost all of us that hunted with him learned how to field dress, skin and butcher a Deer with those knives. The secondary blade on the 062 is excellent for fish processing and does a decent job filleting.
Thanks very much for the info on these, I learn more and more about these daily!! I learned to field dress on a stag Solingen piece of my father’s that was very similar to a 39.
That sure did turn out nice Jerry. Beautiful knife brother, nice job! 👍🔥👊
Thanks very much for checking it out!!
Great job cleaning up that gorgeous knife. I'm working on a knife today but it has some deeper pitting, so will have some pitting after I am finished. Thanks for showing that Western 👍 👌 🙂
Thanks very much for checking it out!! I’m working on 2 Klaus Solingen knives now with deep pitting, I’m in the same boat as you!! Can’t wait to see it when you’re done!!
Great job cleaning that up brother, looks brand new. Amazing what that mineral oil soak does for delrin isn’t it! Thanks for the Western Wednesday, I only have one, a camp knife, but I want to add some more to the collection. Have a great evening, and God bless.
Thanks 🙏 very much for checking it out, I couldn’t believe how well the Mineral Oil worked!!
You did a nice job on that one, buddy! Looks great!
Thanks very much for checking it out!!
Beautiful knife Jerry. The Kabar is a sweet looking knife too.
You and Sara have a wonderful evening and a wonderful week brother. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🔪
Thanks very much, hope you guys have a great week as well!!
@@bigjsknives you are very welcome! We will definitely try. This high heat is keeping me inside though. It doesn't mix well with my heart meds lol
Love those Western FH, weren’t quite as bulky as some of the other brands. Friend you turned that one into a pristine piece. Nothing more rewarding in my book.
Thanks very much and I agree!!
There is an incredible stag folding hunter that showed up on evil bay today very old with Western States tang stamp on auction. Probably gonna go sky high but you might want to check it out.
She looks great! I just recently acquired my first “Western”, a W742, and I really like it. I’ll definitely be on the lookout for more…
Thanks very much for checking it out, i am actually making a trade right now for an older 742!!
Great job came out unbelievable. It actually looks smaller than the case full back hunter. I had one case fullback hunter that was a lock back, but I sold it for 200 bucks because I bought it at my local pawnshop for $70 and sold it for 200. Not sure what the temperature is in your area, but I hope you’re staying cool 98 today here in Brighton , Massachusetts 10 minutes outside of Boston i’ve been I’ve been told it supposed to be hot tomorrow not really looking forward to that. Just staying in the air-conditioning. Another great video big Jay. Thanks for sharing this with us. Sorry better go watch your other video. I missed. God bless you God bless Miss Sarah. God bless your families and all your animals.
Thanks for checking it out!! It’s hot here but I’ll take heat over cold any day. These are smaller than the Case folding hunters.
I just had my Ka-bar folding hunter out today!!! And that Western looks pretty good for a knife that’s at retirement age 😂😂😂 Great video brother!!!
Thanks brother!! I thought of that Kabar on the fly and was a great comparison to make.
Looks great! I finally got the book, the knife makers that moved West, I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. Just an FYI, the person selling the book on eBay will knock the price down a little bit and they are brand new
Thanks very much, I'm gonna have to look into getting one of these!!
Hey BigJ.. I love this knife, great job bro... I posted a response on my channel , tell me how i did... Thanks
I already watched and commented!! Loved your video and I subbed!! Thanks so much for the tag response as well!!
$38 ?🥺What a deal.
Thanks, it was lower than a sd classic in same cabinet, couldn’t believe it
THAT’s IT!!! I’m bidding on one of those on eBay !
Folding hunters are absolutely 100% Dope! Good one buddy! Enjoyed the video!!!
Do it brother!! Nothing to lose but a lil b it of $$ on a killer blade!! LOL!!
