Bulldog Knives - I think they are "rare-er" - pic heavy!

Post by bparisi07 »

I acquired about 100 pocket knives, and most of them are not run-of-the-mill. I have a collection of over 40 bulldogs, many of them are generation 1... a few of them are generation 2 & 3 I believe. And I have 4 fighting roosters... which are pretty neat also. I can't find any information on the following knives, I believe they are pretty rare. I hope someone here can help me. Eventually they will be for sale! Thanks, Brett.

the small pearl is an older, probably early 80's. I don't believe they are in the books but I have seen several with old collections. Maybe the bulldog club members got them, seems like that's where they turn up.
The canoe prototype comes from a 3rd generation set of about 40 diffent handle materials. About 5 in each handle material were made. Either 578A or B.
The Christmas knife BKC 566. The book says only 2 were made in 1994 but I have seen a few of these knives around, but not very many. Sometimes the books are wrong on the numbers.
Hope this helps a little.

Love your knives.
I think,and I know some will not agree with me,but Bulldogs and Fight'n Roosters are some of the nicest looking knives out there.I have over 20 of them now and have had others in the last few years and have never been disappointed with the fit or finish on any of them.
That End Of Day stockman you have,what blade etch is on it.Great knives ,
I see you have a few of the pinstripe,I have a mint stockman I would like to trade for another pattern besides a stockman or congress,if you have anything you would like to trade for it just PM me.Thanks

I see a few that are starting to out gas, keep a close eye on them so they don`t ruin the rest of your knives.

As Dimitri said,pretty is as pretty does. The celluloid handle material on those Fight'n Roosters ( I don't know about the Bulldogs) is some of the most dangerous out there. Been known to RUIN many a collection. You see piles the the rusted deteriorated and useless knives at shows. ::td:: ::td:: Wish I had a picture of the pile of them I saw at the Gator Show. These look good comparatively.
