Hello from Washington state

Post by PocketLance »

Thanks for letting me in! I'm at the beginning stages of collecting pocket knives. So far I am focusing on US made knives. Been visiting antique shops and ebay to help build my collection. It's been fun learning how to clean, sharpen and oil, and finding about the history of these knives, in large part from this forum - thanks! ::tu::

Living in Washington State puts you might close to a fine AAPK member, Orvet, he's somewhere south of you in Oregon. Hope y'all enjoy your ride on the AAPK train ::handshake:: .
