Lets see those Parker's
Re: Lets see those Parker's
Took a bit longer than expected.... but as promised.... Schrade / Parker "Founding Fathers" Bicentennial Series.
5 large stockmans: George Washington [cream], John Adams [blue], Thomas Jefferson [green], Patrick Henry [white], Nathan Hale [red]
....all with blade etch & shield in the iconic Parker eagle. Notice how the blue felt liners did not hold up nearly as well as the red.

Very nice KAW,
Re: Lets see those Parker's
My first real knife was a One Arm Pillbuster. It had the smooth bone handles. Got it from my dad shortly before he passed.
Wish I still had that one. Don't know where it went, kids'll be kids. Probably traded it for some Hot Wheels.

Re: Lets see those Parker's
Jerry, I own about 30 Parker's but I've never bought or even held a Frost or Parker/Frost knife. What the quality like in the Frost knives or the Parker/Frost knifes. The Flying Falcon you have there reminds me of a Parker I once had, it was OK quality with good fit and finish.jerryd6818 wrote:A Parker Little Pill Buster

Re: Lets see those Parker's
I have this knife listed as a Parker National Blade in my files but the tang is just stamped National Blade. I don't know anything about it but it's a neat little knife.

Re: Lets see those Parker's
This Parker Imai K633 was passed down to me when I was very young and unfortunately I am unable to ask the person who passed it down questions about this knife.
I have no knowledge about the knife company or style and would like general or valuable information about the knife.
Through Google I've seen it referred to as a "survival knife", "special ops knife", "1980's", "Parker Bros. knife", and old Ebay auctions valued it at $200.
In my opinion, it's is in "fair" shape at best but I could be wrong. Still has original sharpener but the compass on the bottom has been busted out.
Thanks for starting this blog and providing any information about the knife!

Re: Lets see those Parker's
I'll tell you what.
Mr Parker sure did leave his mark on this earth.
There are so many variations of patterns, countries, partners, and just a general dedication to knives that you rarely ever see.
Some people talk trash about Mr. parkers "style" but you have to give it to the man for bringing SO many different knives to the masses.
I have quite a few Parkers but not all photographed yet so I'll post the pictures that I do have.
There is an Eagle eye, Smokey mountain Knife works, a Wildcat, and a Mustang I believe. Sorry for the poor images but I am working on that.

Re: Lets see those Parker's
Nothing extraordinary, just a handy little flying falcon. It's carried a lot and used some. Found it at a gun show in a bucket full of knives the dealer was selling @ 2 for a buck.
Just because i'm paranoid doesn't mean they are not out to get me.

Re: Lets see those Parker's
...and a couple more little Parker Lock Backs. I will point out that the Parker Beaver Tail is of noticeably higher quality than the Parker-Frost Husky. Not too surprising, really...a lot of folks have mentioned that, generally, the Parker-Frost era knives just don't have the same quality construction as other Parker collaborations. They look good enough, but, unfortunately, very often something was lost in the execution. Nothing wrong with it aesthetically, however.
