All About Pocket Knives

it is 4 1/4 long, it only has 2 blades that are pinned on the same end, blades look full. it's not made like my large whittler. one of the reasons i think it's that old is because of where i found it. the place was a old hotel built in 1878 and it rotted an fell to the ground by 1939. nothing else w...

i found this today with my metal detector, from the shield i think it might be a 1915-1925. can anyone id, is it a cigar whittler.

if you dont mind give it one more good look, when i zoom in on the picture that shows the inside ,second picture from the right, there appears to be a void in the stag that has been filled with wax or putty. or am i just seeing things. i haven't asked the seller any questions about it yet. does it l...

yes the buffing/polishing compound residue and the stag looks like its been buffed down to the pin in one spot. Thats why i like this site so many trained eyes that can spot anything that stands out in a picture. The real test will be a in-hand evaluation if it goes that far. I bought one last week ...

could you please give this case trapper a look and see if it looks alright to you. it kind of looks alright except for a heavy polish. kind of like to hear what you think before i try for it. 141191496407, thanks little d.

i bought a 79 case trapper and the blades and back springs have a light tarnish and a few specks of carbon spotting. i would like to clean it up but dont know what to use or where to get it. i could use any help you could give. thanks little d.

i thought the same about the handles also.

i been watching a folding hunter listed for auction at ebay but would like some expert advice before i go any further. its a one bladed folding hunter case tested xx 1920-1940 with pearl handles. the auction number is 161205132252, if someone with some knowledge of this era knife could give it a loo...

here are my new buys and trades for the last few weeks or so.

i lost one of my edc's not to long ago, i had it for some time and still haven't gotten over it. I have had many chances to replace it but for some reason i won't, i reckon i still have hopes of finding it.

thanks for giving it a look, i bought it so we will get to see it in hand sometime soon.

theres a 6275 on ebay i was watching and wonder if anyone else has seen it. the seller has it a near mint knife but the picture is so crappy i cant tell. they also have L146 after the model number. does anyone know what that would stand for. the blade looks like it might have some rust on it in the ...

i pledge to buy no more than i did in the last few years.

here is a different picture i took of them, its hard to get a good picture without the shadows and such. can anyone tell me the date of a B stamp mark.

does anyone know if the handles on these western fixed blades pose any threat to my other knives.

got this one in today 1980 muskrat,$56.oo

i got this one in today $56.00, i thought is was a good deal and now that i can hold it im glad i bought it. My question about ten dot muskrats is why are they priced so much higher than most other knives. Are muskrats just more desirable.

I saw a graph on here when i did a search on the stamp pattern on western brand knives but the one i was looking for was out of the picture. does someone have the graph in whole they could post. the knife age i was looking for was a 666B

Here are two of the club knives I traded for today. Couldn't afford the others. Looks like they have a picture of the state of Alabama on them.

the knives belong to a traden buddy of mine, the club logo is elk river. they are case xx, 2 sow bellies,a bone stag sea horse, a very nice 2 blade stag barlow and a stag copperlock. he said 350. for all, i can get a picture of them if he has them next time i see him.

one of the guys i trade with bought some club knives that have the club logo painted or etched on the blade. some of them have some really nice stag handles, can you remove the logos without harming the blade. will a light buffing take it off. they are from a different state and i dont think most of...

Item No. 08462, R5383WH SS, WHITTLER RED STAG, 05/29/08

none of them match the one in my picture

here is a picture of the knife. where did you see a auction on flea bay that had one like this listed, i tired looking but my search only turned up other styles.

i traded for a 2008 3 bladed case xx whittler R5383. It has the red stag handles with the xx bar shield, i looked at the ebay auctions but didnt see any like it but the other case knives with the red stag and bar shield say they are a rare find. just would like to know if this knife has much value b...
