Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
Been eyeball'n this one on feebay for 3 months. Had a way to high BIN price even for a minty. Sent a message to seller inquiring if they had a bottom dollar. The made me a 30% discount offer, and even that was really too high, but decided to pull the trigger since I didn't have a Walden version yet. Now I have 5 different examples of the 285UH. This one has the serial# on the center liner though, and not on the back liner like all the other UH folders I have.

Picked up a 125OT w/ sheath for cheap to go into my EDC selection. Pleasantly surprised to find it hasn't had a stone put to it yet and appears to have seen little use.

All the way from Texas, neat ole hok, thx Ray.
Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
This trio arrived Friday evening. The Colonial barlow is pretty much self explanatory, good steel, some patina, phony bolsters, great edc.
The utility knife is stamped Walden on the cap lifter but all other stamps ground off. The main blade is lightly over-stamped "Eagle Phila."
Can you shed and light on it?
The boot knife was cheap and cool, so I got it.

Picked these 2 up at the Wind Gap, PA show yesterday. First if the Wolfertz pruner, great snap, good blade, nice wood handles, maybe ebony or maybe cocobolo. Got this from Sauconian from AAPK. Had a nice chat with him. Next up is a Robeson sleeveboard, 662102, with really nice jigged bone handles. Happy to find this one. Of course, nether of these was on the list going in. Did not find a copperhead I wanted.

Went to the Monroe swap meet this morning with about 10,000 other people.Found a great old KA-BAR folding hunter with a lot of wear and a small chip on the pile side near the center rivet for $15.Oiled it;put an edge on it,and it is currently residing in my left pocket.
Two advertising knives:one single blade USA(probably Colonial)and a Colonial 2 blade serpentine both with old Detroit business names.$5 for both of them.
Another advertising knife(Lake Motor Freight Lines)that looks like a Camillus serpentine with a California clip blade stamped,"Trade Mark SAMCO Nashville" Anyone ever heard the name before? A new one on me.$5
Also a pearl handled butter knife marked Ovington Brothers Brooklyn which was a company that specialized in fine china and kitchen cutlery around 1900.$2.

I was on a roll there for a while Greg. Still need 2 or 3 to fill in the 70's, red bone preferably. Just not in a hurry to do it.

Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
That's one of my favorite patterns Steve. I sold most of my 70's when I decided to focus on on XX and older. But I couldn't part with my 79 stag and a 73 red bone that is particularly beautiful.steve99f wrote:I was on a roll there for a while Greg. Still need 2 or 3 to fill in the 70's, red bone preferably.

Ken, between 1875 and 1943 a guy named George Creutzberg bought seconds and wholesale knives from various companies including New York Knife company and restamped them with his company name to resell. I believe he dealt with only good quality knives and they have become collectible on their own. He was out of Phil. Pa.___Daveken98k wrote:This trio arrived Friday evening.
