Re: Recovered Knives
glennbad, with a lot of illumination plus magnification I found this on the liner: GT13. I don't know your name so kindly let me know if this is your mark. I hope so.

Re: Recovered Knives
Glenn, when did you start doing that? I don't think you marked any of the ones you did for me. The last one was the Camillus 23, I'll have to look and see if it's marked. That would be a pleasant surprise to find out it's marked.

That is definitely me. I think I've done maybe 2 knives in that wormgroove. I definitely need to do a few more though.
Jerry, I've been modding since around 2012, I think. I'm pretty sure I've marked the majority of my knives like that, maybe not the very first ones. Some, I do forget to mark during construction, and then it's too risky to mark them after cover materials are on.
Mystery solved!!!

Found it. Didn't even know it was there. Had a bear of a time getting a picture of it but here it is.glennbad wrote: Jerry, I've been modding since around 2012, I think. I'm pretty sure I've marked the majority of my knives like that.
Haven't checked any of the rest of them because I'd have to almost empty my cabinet to find them.

Well, I am glad that you like it!Quick Steel wrote:Congratulations on learning the whereabouts of one of your gems. I am honored to have it.
Getting back to the origin of the thread, it is always exciting to rediscover something that you had either forgotten about or had misplaced. I have a pile of knives in my shop that need to be cleaned up before putting them in my collection. They're in small boxes or ziplock bags with a bunch of other knives. Every now and then I'll go through those knives, and it's like Christmas all over again finding one I had got, but then forgot about.
I think I got a problem, but it's one that I enjoy...

Re: Recovered Knives
I'm still looking in my small house for a Keen Kutter trapper that I used as a kid in Kansas in the 60s to clean fish. I still have a small scar on my knuckle from a slip with that knife. Real bone handles, one big spear blade, one pen blade. I remember years ago cleaning it and oiling it good, but darned if I can find it now....
