Re: Went and Visited the Neighbor Today @BoatrightBladeWorks

I really enjoyed the layout of his website, and the look of his knives. And, I was excited to see that he is a fellow Alabamian! If his knives look as good in-hand as they do online, then you have found yourself a great custom maker! He seems to be doing well at the TKI Nashville show he said he so...

Another great show in the books. Didn't bring home a whole lot and nothing to far out there. I did however get to see the smiling faces of a bunch a friends (can't remember everyone's screen name here but you know who you are) and made some new ones. That's what it's all about.

I don't know Matt's whole story but he started making knives in 2003 after many years of collecting. So...

What did everyone bring back from Blade Show 2021

So last time I posted my newest Deerfoot patterns we had a little debate about era and what not. Thanks to Neal Punchard's new book ( J.A. Henckel Knives ) we have some model #'s and production years as well as an old advertisement. Anyway on to the blades, these 2 newest acquisitions are definitely...

Re: Rich. A. Herder Gentleman's Knife

I mean really nowhere does it say a gentleman files his nails, clips his nose hairs and needs a button hook does it. ::shrug:: ::shrug:: ::shrug:: ::shrug:: . Then again it doesn't say they sit and drink and smoke either.

Re: Rich. A. Herder Gentleman's Knife

"Gent's knife" is a term used for small, slender, pen or lobster knives, often with metal handles and with a manicure blade that a 'gentleman' might carry in his pocket to the office or church, etc. Your knife is a 2 blade Jack. Many or even most, older German jacks have a corkscrew which...

Re: Henckels Deerfoot

Yes this is an old Henckels pattern, likely goes back to early 1900's. What i was asking is: was it made after 1960 when Henckels began contracting out their folding knives ? Many patterns were not made after 1960, i.e. they were dropped, not made by contacting out. kj I would guess there's a good ...

Re: Henckels Deerfoot

Wow ! I think it is a Henckels' pattern. I have an old Henckels catalog that shows this knife. I wonder if any were made after 1960 as 'contract knives', i.e. by whoever Henckels had making folding knives for them, Boker ? They are hard to find knives so having 6 is quite an accomplishment. kj I ag...

This is probably one of my foavrite patterns. I have only ever heard it refered to as a deerfoot since it's shape does resemble the actual deerfoot knives. I currently have 6 of this pattern, 4 that are Henckels and they are all different. I have seen other variations of this pattern as well so how ...

J.A. Henckels Silver Polish Cloth

Pretty cool vintage piece from Ebay. Just a guess on age is pre 1918. I'm saying this because Wein ( Vienna ) is located in what is now known as Austria, which seperated from Germany in 1918. All the other cities are still located in Germany. Like I said just a guess. J.A. Henckels Silver Polishing ...

Grip is fine although some one with a little skillz could finger groove it, would add a little flare and more comfort
