All About Pocket Knives

Using my Patrick Brennan prototype kiridashi yesterday as making a new handle for my MOD knife not finnished but getting there,I cut my finger on my workbench finnished off with a BBQ ,good day

Paul, its looks very sharp and pointy !

There's a commercial version of Camillus jet pilot knife.
I'm thinking it was made late 1970's to 80's...?

A knife is only as good as its' blade.
This is some of Schrade's Fixed Blade Knives, they made before closing down.

The MOD knife I made a handle for the other day

Very nice wood carving on that handle, Paul! What type of wood?

Thanks Felix TBH mate ive no clue as picked it up a long time ago and just say in a pile It's nice to carve though but still pretty tough so good for handles

Here are some.

I have never seen a collection of HESS beauties before. Impressive! The Schrades that go into those Craftsman sheaths are a great gathering in their own right.

Thanks TR. You know your stuff..

I can't believe I like this one , but I do.
What a beast.

Just picked this one up this afternoon;a Cutco model 1769 JI complete with sheath. Doesn't appear to have been used but the sheath looks old.The serrations are still crisp.

Man, k7k, you find the best knives !

I just get lucky sometimes.That particular knife has been sitting in a display at a local flea market for some time now. I never really paid too much attention to it. Today I went over there(it is across the street from where I live)after getting back from a long weekend at a car show 100 miles away and decided to ask what he wanted for it. Wound up getting it for $10. I guess it was a good deal;I haven't had the chance to research it yet. Guess I'll display it with one of my Cutco "Sherlocks".

Looks like your on the right track, nice chopper. Terry

Just finished this one up, another Western W-31 style blade and cocobolo handle. I have made 4 of these now. For some reason people like the blade grind? Terry

just finished this one up, O-1 tool steel and amber jigged bone handle. and my hand stitched sheath. thanks for looking, Terry

Terry that is a beautiful knife and sheath. You have outdone yourself on this one.

Terry that is a gorgeous knife and sheath, can't believe that is a bone handle, looks like old, gnarly stag.

Great looking knife; amazing handle and that sheath is to die for.

Thanks guys! I too like the jig bone dyed amber, I got the scales from Culpepper. Compliments keep me going, thanks again. Terry
