All About Pocket Knives

I've no quarrel with the members here who are able to go way beyond my limited knowledge about fake or not fake knives on ebay or other sites. What I am puzzled about is the large number of people bidding on and buying these knives at astronomical prices. If this seller is so bogus, and members here...

Thanks Basser. That satisfies my curiosity and my friend can now fill out some missing info from his dads legacy.

I've been away for a while and am getting the handle on the "new" look on the site. Recently a friend dropped an old knife in my hand and said "what is this?". It's a two bladed (looks like) butterbean. On the main blade, (very faint tiny) "kissing crane" stamp above &q...

Keep yer knife sharp and handy Tank. ya never know when you'll need it. RIP,

Hope y'all have a Merry Christmas. No white Christmas here in Louisiana ,.,,, foggy all day and the temp right now is 68*! There is a 50% chance of T-Storms tomorrow.

Never on Sunday but almost every day this is handing on my belt. And a companion for it in my pocket -a CV 6207 six dot Mini Trapper.

Since I am probably the least skilled in judging the good, the bad or fake I wonder who is bidding hundreds on what some here are calling fake or mis-labeled knives. He has on his "see other items" several knives that are being bid way up there. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Antique-Case...

That is what I thought - - an up-scale silver orange peeler. Years ago I made some out of hard maple and gave them to un-suspecting people. Once they were shown how it worked they liked them.

On a recent trip to Omaha, my friend brought out a little Canoe - about 3" long closed. It was quite cruddy but had a solid snap. When he handed it to me he asked what the shield indicated. A little oil on my fingertip rubbed off some dirt and revealed the two Kissing Cranes! Now here is my que...

July in Loosyana! It has been the hottest July ever and I am changing my tee shirts about three times a day. I hadn't thought about the sweaty pockets in my Levis being a poor environment for my older case CV folders. Now that it is coming on September the dog days are moving into Indian summer and ...

I know that it has probably already appeared in the que here but I seldom go out the door without my Case ..SS. Mako in a Case sheath hanging on my belt. I love my lockbacks ::ds:: ::ds:: but that Case is my favorite. I have a "comfort zone" collection - - 4 - LB7s, 4 - 110s, 2 - KaBars an...

I tried and tried and then BOOM! I thought I was on safe ground when I saw this AWFUL LOOKING Buck 110 for some crazy low bid, and just to make things interesting I put in what I thought would never stick! Well guess what ::dang:: IT"S MINE! ! ! Never been touched, razor sharp and a slick belt ...

Sometimes late at night I go to dozin and forget myself. Ididn't really need another 110 but this one was so gorgeous - - well here is #3 of 3......

DP You are the Man! Every time I caress the CS Trapper I still can't believe it. I've never owned a Barlow so maybe it is my turn! Thanks Mike for your generosity.

On Feb-20-15 at 10:20:50 PST, seller added the following information: NOTE: Potential buyers, it has been brought to my attention that the shield, blade etching and tang stamp, do not match known examples of NKCA 1985 Prototype or 1985 Club knives. This was a knife that my husband ("doglegtrapp...

Here's a knife set .It only $1475.35 US postage to Australia (Thats $1685.34 Australian ) http://www.ebay.com/itm/DISPLAY-OF-8-VINTAGE-RANDALL-MADE-KNIVES-BRITT-BROWN-COLLECTION-RKS-STIDHAM-/181311656108?pt=Collectible_Knives&hash=item2a370450ac I just went to this link for laughs but choked on...

NOT ME! But here in Louisiana it has snowed twice! the one this morning is only 2 ", but just last week it was 4". Now I know for y'all further north this ain't no big deal but it was for us.

The one of me is in the tomater jungle of last summer.

Wow thegreedygulo! That is a wonderful knife . I have my Grandfathers (on both sides) pocket knives. One is a KaBar trapper of my paternal Grandfather and a Remington stockman from my maternal Grandpaw. These will go to the 3rd or 4th generations very soon. Heirloom knives and other "sharp"...

My Swedish grandmother used this knife for years. She passed away about 50 years ago. My dad inherited some of her treasures, including this knife. Sometime in the 70s he had to replace the shattered Ebony handle. He whittled it out of some hard maple he had. I think the bolster is original. When my...

Half of congress might be right, but I would say MOST of the mainstream media kisses his bl@ck ass. As far as checks and balances, he weasels, cheats and steals his way around most of them. ::td:: ::td:: 2 thumbs down. Mark If you haters of the President want to spout off - - why don't you do it in...

I snagged this one for less than $6 and even though I am not into Barlows this looked too good to let go. I have no idea how to determine it's age but it looks like carbon steel or C/V. . .

In appreciation of the fall like weather right now (upper 50's) I'll be carrying this Canal Street Cutlery Sunset Smooth Bone Half Moon Trapper thru the weekend! Nice C/S - - FFF Pretty nice C/S. I have been only able to afford three C/S folders and am almost afraid to take them out of the safe to ...

No. I'm not going to ask about a 100# blacksmiths ANVIL. :lol: A friend came by with some turnip greens he had just cut from his garden. While sitting on the deck having a cuppa - - he mentioned his knife was kinda dull and didn't cut the stems as cleanly as he liked. I got my honesteel out and had ...
