New York Knife Question

I noticed Cooper Cutlery is currently making knives with a New York Knife Co. stamp; which as I understand, was one of the companies that, eventually, became IKAC/Imperial Schrade Corp. I am wondering, was it a trademark that stayed with Schrade until '04, or was it something that lapsed? As I'd ass...

Re: What's Wrong With This Picture

I can get mine open without fingernails, so I cease to see the point why you'd do this with a Cheetah.

Re: Junk knives

Let me get to digging. Quite a few missed the POS Exchange this year, and I know I have a box full of knives I intended to fix myself, but never got aroudn to.

Re: What reason for rope blade shape?

So you don't accidentally stab yourself. The sheepsfoot allows for a non-pointy blade that still has a tip good enough for scoring stuff.

Part 2; Utica Kutmaster Girl Scout knives. This pattern used a green celluloid that was notorious for outgassing. This one already is showing signs.

Re: Unique Marbles Hatchet Question

Greetings! That's not Marbles, it's W. Marples and Sons out of Sheffield England. They made tools, chisels, hatchets, etc. and I believe they're still in business today. Started in the 1800's. Too deeply ground and over polished to have any value. Eric I had figured as such, given this is a style o...

Re: Another knife manufacturer

Not sure about that one, as I'm half certain that's one of the Queens that's really a rebranded Rough Ryder.

However, I think a mix of Utica and Bear and Son are making the current ones.

Re: Old Timer 980T Ramrod

Nice find! Real Old Timers (not the Taylor junk) are getting harder to find, and the prices just keep creeping up. Used to be, you could buy a near-new USA 34OT for the same price a new Taylor is, but not anymore. \

Is that your train layout? It looks great!

Re: Show off your fixed blades!

Here's a cool little knife I just got off Amazon. Nice! Looks to be just about right for just throwing in your pocket and getting to work. Looking at Amazon, it's a Sanremu product. If it's anything like my 7010, it's definitely excellent bang for your buck. If only I hadn't blown my hobby budget a...

I am in the process of getting ready to basically use a lot of unwanted diecast and knives as trading fodder with the owner of a local antique store. However, I'm kind of clueless about the whole thing--usually, when I sell/trade something, it's at my cost (which usually tends to be what it's worth)...
