All About Pocket Knives

Cool knives, huh, Tony? You should be able to tighten up your swinguards via the screw that holds them on, I think. ::shrug:: I like how you displayed them, if one didn't know better they'd have trouble believing you only dropped 32 bones total for both knives! Great score for you, my man! 8) EDIT: ...

O.K. O.K., ya got me, Dog!

P1050208.JPG Wow, I certainly didn't figure you for Samurai swords, Garry, but regardless of that yours are gorgeous! Are there any of the priceless examples in there, like a Hattori? It just hit me, were you watching "Kill Bill" on TV yesterday? ::shrug:: ::sneaky:: I'd sure like to see ...

Nice carries, gents! 😎👍 💯 Is that candy or a gold nugget? Totin' a KK Barehead Jack for Whittler Wednesday. ::facepalm:: I'm thinking that chunk is one of those demon-face lanyard beads, John, with little horns and nostrils on top of it's snarling lip, but with my old eyes....! ::shrug:: That's a b...

Thanks, Georgiy, I get it. I was given similar information from Mykhail, he told me that even after leaving prison some of the guys continue making knives from their homes, and it is all made possible due to what they learned while in prison, and that makes perfect sense. Let's just leave it at, sho...

Cool as can be, Rey!
I'm really diggin' your trident forks as well as the 2 prong affairs, and your set in picture 4 looks like a Viper folding knife, how cool is that!

Nice Skinner Charlie! I took an interest in Muela after getting the folder pictured at an auction sometime last year. Apologies ... not a fixed blade. Action, F&F is excellent. Muela durability is great also from what research I have done. I looked for one like you have, but could not find it. ...

Do you really not get what I was talkin' about, Dog, or are you being facetious, seriously, I can't be sure. I see the paranoid emojis but...? ::shrug:: Hold on, I just realized every knife you posted is yellow in one form or another, that tells me all I need to know, facetious! ::nod:: You rascal y...

Well, G-351, your grandson is a handsome young lad, and you're a real cool lookin' ole' fart, jus' like me! I'm curious as to just how old you are, cuz nobody and I mean nobody wears Ty-Dye anymore! ::stir:: lol! That being said, neither of you guys are as good lookin' as those axes you're totin'! ...

Thank you Madmarco! I might be new here, but I can already tell we’re gonna be friends… 8) Ha ha ha! I totally agree, LS89, anyone who loves and carries an auto in their EDC rotation is my kindda anyone! I live in Canada where due to government restrictions it's been a challenge getting my hands on...

Thanks Bob, the knife actually is very nice and put together like a tank, it's just not the original I thought I was buying. I'm still quite pleased with it though! It reminds me of a knife that a sailor wold carry.

What you say doesn't really surprise me, Garry, you have always been more concerned about things like origins, makers, ages, etc., so I think you might have our roles reversed with you being the better man.

And a large one! Nice!

Much thanks, K-O-F, that's odd, to me the 2 knives appear to be very similar in size with mine measuring 8 1/4" with the blade deployed.

Your suggestion to go private was a good one, Georgiy, I try hard to not hijack a thread, but sometimes fail miserably, but it's a moot point now if the knife isn't available. Thanks for the videos, and although you won't get any strikes against you for posting them there is a specific forum for pos...

Thanks a bunch, Tim, the c/c handles do make for a great hold on the knife, it's just a shame t's not an original, but then again, if it was original it likely wouldn't be in as good condition as it is.
It is what it is!

A wonderful grouping of beautiful Spydies, Garry, I'm wondering if the Police model is serrated?
I recently viewed a non-serrated model and really liked it as opposed to their serrated model.

Spyderco knives were heavily used before my retirement. The shiny model on the left is my oldest; about 30 years of age. P1050210.JPG The Spyderco Police. An absolute classic. Nice catch, LS89, I also recognized that unmistakeable shape of their Police model, great minds and all that! ::handshake::...

Thanks Charlie! I will see if I can find it somewhere. The black handle got me ... good looking Bowie. + I have been a fan of Muela knives since the late '80s. In 2001 I was moving and a foot locker full of hunting and fishing gear got lost in the move. Among other things it contained three large M...

You're most welcome, Dave, was my pleasure.
I hadn't noticed how the Rigid and Beretta appear so similar, I like it.

Thanks Garry. I totally agree, the knife looks good and is in pristine condition, but I thought I was buying an original and it's a reproduction, which really isn't so bad, but at the time when I found out it's origins it was kindda disappointing, but I'm over it! lol! Considering it's new and made ...

It certainly doesn't look like that now, John, our pal Herb is quite the talented guy!
Good looking knife, congratulations!

Way cool, LS89, with that bright orange you won't be losing either of those any time soon!
