    If you follow all those links to the end it tells a very twisted tale.

    Hey Mike, since you've got so many, and given what we found out about Halsted being like Sears with their rebranded products, you think that's a Freddie? That's what it looks lime to me.

    What Mick said. Mike (Outback) has a bunch of Frederick Reynolds just like that one, one of which he got from me. That's why I was asking his opinion.

    To elaborate, it seems that Halsted did not in fact manufacture anything but rather contracted products and had the true manufacturer put his name on them. I have seen many that were obviously Wade & Butcher products ( In fact, there's an FBU on eBay right now that is a Wade & Butcher) but the one you have I feel sure is a Freddie.
