All About Pocket Knives

Hey Dave. Thanks for the blast from the past. Since you awakened this thread I will try and post a couple pictures. First, earlier in this thread, I said I had bought another Hayes custom knife. I still have it am including a picture. I am not sure, but I call this knife a "peanut". The bl...

I have been selling on the forum here for almost 2 years. I am very happy with the opportunity and the success of my sales. Like most people, I use some of the "SOLD" listings to figure out the right price to list my new items. When I search for sold items, I find lots of information that ...

I have the knife you are wanting. I sent you an email. Here are pictures. The back of the knife has number 215 etched.

So, I kind of figured out my own problem. The calendar functions work correctly for both start and end if you do the end date first. That seems a little "counter intuitive", but it works. Thanks

I am trying to turn on my vacation settings. I do fine when entering the beginning date. I cant make the ending date work. It will not allow me to manually input a date and the calendar function that works for beginning date does not work for ending date. Any help would be appreciated.

I am getting ready to sell some Bulldog Brand knives on my AAPK member store. Before I do, I have some questions asking for help. I find it difficult to get information on many Bulldog knives, but especially the Folding Hunter knives. I am including pictures of three Bulldog Brand folding hunter Pro...

I don't see a picture.

Are the handles Aluminum? Would any maker from that era use aluminum for liners or scale supports? Yes, the "handles" are aluminum. I assumed it was a weight issue if military related. It does not seem to me this is an unfinished piece. What little I know about the manufacturing process o...

I am in the process of downsizing my collection and going through some stuff I have not looked at in years. I came across this Aerial Cutlery knife in the pictures. The tang is stamped "AERIAL CUTLERY CO" over "MARINETTE WIS". Levine's book shows they made knives with this stamp ...

Thanks

I came across this thread while trying to do some research about custom knives from Larry Hayes. I just bought one of his knives from Sanders Store. I was intrigued by the original poster talking about a Larry Hayes "custom sunfish whittler". I also have a custom sunfish whittler by Larry ...

Thanks. I do fine with the "make this my main image". I have trouble when I have 6 or 8 pictures and I want image 6 changed to image 5. Does that make sense?

Hi. I am a long time member but new to the Selling feature. I have successfully added a few items. I do sell on ebay so I understand most of the basics. I am having trouble when it comes time to rearrange the order of my pictures. I have tried lots of things but still struggle. Is there an easy way ...

Thanks Mike. It was new when I bought it so I guess it must have been longer ago than I remember.

I am hoping for some help and information on a Benchmade knife I have. I bought this knife 15 or 20 years ago. I believe it was at a gun show. I played with it a little and then put it away. I have not touched it in years. I am in the process of downsizing my collection and got this out of storage. ...

I have one of these in "Purple Passion". I like it in my collection of Bulldog sunfish knives. These were made in six handle materials and only 10 of each. If my math is right, there is only a total of 60 of these "big dogs". I have always wanted one of these in stag. My pictures...

I am sure somebody knows more about these than I do. Maybe more pictures will help.

These are my favorite old ones. They are the pride of my collection. Case Brothers in stag. WR Case & Sons in pearl. Case Tested in green bone. Case XX in red bone.

Does anyone know if there is a way to date the Bulldog folding hunter knives? I know Parker's book talks about the length of the nail pull, but sometimes that difference seems less than obvious. I believe some of the early ones do have 1983 stamped in the tang. I have quite a few of these and have t...

Would anyone be willing to be a little less cryptic for the slower ones of us?

All those knives look great! I am a big fan of the Bulldog knives, especially the stag ones. I am looking for a good reference book for Bulldogs. I have Parker's Pocket knife traders guide but it does not have a lot of detail about the knives. What do you guys use? In my picture are some of my curre...

I bought this knife years ago. It is a two blade knife that is used for some sort of pruning or grafting or something. It does not have any stamping to identify the maker, but it does have a blade etch. It has "LEONARD " over "PIQUA, O." etched on the blade. I believe this refers...

I believe there were four different handle materials, genuine Pearl, Imitation Ivory (white composite), Gold Stone, and Imitation Tortoise shell. I think there were 2 wr case.jpg at least three patterns that were made: Doctor's Knife, Fishtail knife, and Leg Knife. I have tried to find more informat...
