All About Pocket Knives

Good Mornin', let's open up the diner! ::tu:: 47 this morning, clear skies again, yesterday was nice weather wise. Had a successful trip to the doctor. Going to have an easy day I think, got to check the game cameras and maybe do some work in the yard. Church this evening and probably a run to the g...

I carried my sporty little TB62028 SS with me today, no need for a "real" knife at the doctor's office or at the Red Lobster in Panama City. Treefarmer

No, Gtrclktr-351, you're not the only one. I've posted this knife several times and probably mentioned its history before here on AAPK. The first knife I remember buying was a Case 61048, pretty sure it was when I was in the 9th grade, 1st year of Vocational Agriculture/FFA at Colonial High School i...

Good Mornin', Folks. Scott, my friend, you need to be here in the Panhandle, it's 46 this morning. Cool all day yesterday, had a light wind a blowin' and in the shade, you needed a long sleeved shirt to stay comfortable. Maybe this full moon is the last cool down until fall. Our old dog, Flossie had...

Got these two in the mail today, they were out of the water in the shallow end of the bay, stuck in the mud as the tide went out. 002.JPG They were listed as "Buck 375 & Scout Camw3a Knives", don't know if they hit the wrong keys or were guessing. ::shrug:: One picture of both knives f...

Good Mornin', Knifers. Just a tad on the cool side this morning, 48 degrees. The rain yesterday was minimal, spotty might be a good term. The most rain came during church time, could hear a little thunder but not the rain. Outside after the service everything was wet. The sky is clear this morning a...

Jerry, you always knock it out of the park! Everything looks so delicious and that old Case 6265 shows where your heart is.

Jerry, those two make me smile. Mighty pretty handles on those Case knives and a great and practical combination for someone in the outdoors!

Ivoryman, I believe those liners are probably nickel silver, same metal as the bolsters. Notice the difference in the color compared to the springs which are most likely carbon steel. ::hmm:: (I have a 1970 Case Trapper, stainless blades, that has a carbon spring and a stainless spring. Took me a wh...

Good Sunday Mornin' to y'all. Hey, JP! thanks for turning on the lights! It's 69 degrees this morning, light rain with a little thunder in the distance. Radar shows it to be scattered showers all to the west and some large ones out in the Gulf and lots of rain about a hundred miles north or so, up i...

Another I picked up at the show. I wasn't even looking for Case stuff, but this stag caught my eye. Steel liners and very well built. Excellent action and tight. Ivoryman, Question about the steel liners, are they rare? Don't recall seeing them on a Case. Was it made during war time? That one has s...

Always enjoy seeing old firearms. ::tu:: Looks like you could reach out and touch 'em with that LONG TOM, Rick. We've got a S&W "almost" like the one Miss Boji posted. All I need to do is put another set of grips on it.: 9-8-20 315q.JPG Can do a bit better with the condition by showing...

Marlin .35. .My first and only deer rifle .perfect gun for hunting in the woods from a stand in a white oak tree .been tagging my limit with the same gun out if the same tree for 40 years now .took all summer hauling hay and mowing yards to pay for her .image.jpg Thomasg, I like the picture of your...

Good Mornin', Folks. Thunder woke me up around 5am, realized I had left our old woods cart outside, I got up and put it under the barn before the rain that is west of us arrives. Looks to be spotty showers, no big rain event. Our son and grandson from Thomasville are supposed to travel over to visit...

Happy Birthday, Sir!
I ought to be able to come by for cake and ice cream since you are only about 100 miles away, 80 as the crow flies.

Happy Birthday!

Thank you for that link, just bob. ::handshake:: Very interesting indeed! Problem is that report is based on 1990 facts, the knife in question is celebrating a 1997 happening. ::shrug:: From the article jut bob referred me to, I gathered several mergers, buyouts, etc., finally became Alcas Cutlery C...

Searched high and low and can't figure out who made this S&W knife. I posted it the other day in "knife finds of the day" and got no response as to the maker. Trying again, who made this one? 001.JPG 002.JPG 003.JPG Two knives like it were listed on AAPK stores, one has sold, the was s...

Hang in there, David! We are all in His hands. Your statement of faith will carry you through this. I know you remember the old gospel song "One day at a time"

Good Mornin' Folks! Reading bighomer and jerryd's posts from yesterday made me smile! I can completely relate to what they are saying, one day you feel good enough to tackle a project and the next day you're shot because you overdid what used to be normal. Seems like my schedule officially be one da...

Good Mornin', cudgee! Thanks for opening the diner, where's the crew this morning? Kinda cloudy this morning, 64 degrees, for this workday. Planning to go to the old lease property and remove some more of our junk. There are several gravity feeders and a very tall ladder stand still in a tree that s...

doglegg, mentioned back during the unveiling of the POS goodies, that any time you had a "look alike" 72 you didn't have a bad pile. Got to reading the Camillus 72 Clones thread and found it quite interesting. The one Floyd was referring to is a Hammer Brand that is similar to the real 72....

Good Mornin', Folks. 60 degrees this morning, appears to be a little bit foggy again. Had a belly ache several hours before daylight, don't quite feel up to par this morning. Had a pretty good day yesterday, got all the mowing done by 1:00 pm. Had one hiccup, I found one of our daughter's old dog ca...

Good Mornin', Folks. We are having a foggy morning, 60 degrees. Went over to the church for men's prayer meeting, now sitting here enjoying a cup with Miss Joy. Spent a couple of hours putting the new deck belt on the mower yesterday. Being old seems to complicate things that used to be a simple tas...
