Re: Case swithcblade

How do I go about selling this knife???? Ken's (Mumbleypeg) advice is spot on. I don't know if you are an experienced eBay seller or not, but another method I've seen a lot of experienced knife sellers using on eBay is to list it for the book price for a mint example--regardless of how ridiculously...

Tony has really long arms…🤣. He and I have been swapping selling to each other for almost 20 years. The fist time I met him he showed my a 5-blade sowbelly, almost fainted.
Congrats, it is a great knife!

Sharpening stones

Came across a group with pieces I have never seen before, the triangle shapes. We’re these for a specific blade style?
Haven’t pulled the trigger, not even sure what type stones they are.
Any help is appreciated.

Re: Marbles Matchsafes

I've seen this on ebay and etsy quite a bit, the seller doesn't want to ship to your area so the shipping charges are US$550. or something similar, which of course any one with half a brain knows he simply doesn't wish to ship to where you are so they move on. That attitude from sellers usually com...

I used to have them in a bedroom display case, but we went on vacation with new house sitters. Thought it wise to keep them in the safe. I installed a ring system in both my office and storeroom for extra safety. These displays are in my office. Mostly military and theater knives.AD6E2DA8-CC89-40BF...

Interesting letter opener

This has bone scales, not an advertising example. The Stewart/Ritchie book does not have this listed?
Does anyone have a similar example?
