Many of the tool kit knives lock in the same as the Imperial set.Some of the German ones have the locking lever as described above and others have s simple lockback style backspring to release and lock the blades in place. These usually have a handle that allows the blade to be locked into either the normal position or at 90 degrees to the handle for using a tool such as a corkscrew or an awl.

Tony, that's a couple of nice 72's there!
Here's what I had in the mail basket when I got home. The sidewinder is larger than I thought and is quite impressive. The unlocking mechanism is activated by depressing the shield. Another liner lock Sodbuster and a good old shortline 72 with black composite handles.

Keith I've always thought they were rather interesting so I Finally found one at a decent price.

[KnifeSlinger#81]

Got me a couple of older schrades on the cheap.

First one is a walden peachseed 895, perfect HOK condition. Tight and snappy as it should be, just needs a little sharpening work. Second one you don't see too often, cut co stainless. Too bad somebody sharpened it poorly and messed up the finish, but the blades are full and any stainless cut co is relatively rare. I was also supposed to get a rough rider swing guard today, but the delivery person blundered. I guess I'll see it monday

This really should be an official knife grade.

Outstanding set of Schrades, KS81!

Great pick-ups!

[KnifeSlinger#81]

My goodness Lloyd, those gems took my breath away. The cut swell center is an ESPECIALLY nice one.

[jerryd6818]

Boyz, when you buy from Scott (TripleF), not only do you get great service, you get treated like you're part of the family. I bought this Premier Lifetime Jack from him and when it showed up today she was outfitted like she was going to the prom. In the package with her was a pen, a lanyard/fob and a brand new, unopened deck of USMC playing cards.

The knife is outstanding. Half-stops on both blades. Snap like the crack of a rifle shot. Blades very near full and terrific bone handles. No buyer's remorse here. Thank you very much Scott.

[TripleF]

My pleasure Jerry!!

These arrived yesterday. The flakes in the Imperial are tough to capture in a pic and are beautiful.
Top knife has pinned-on scales (not shell).

[djknife13]

Yeah Scott, Imperial made some really nice knives before they went to the hollow handles. ___Dave

[Quick Steel]

Just received this Imperial E/O from Scott. It has what appears to be real tortoise shell scales. These were illegal after about 1972. If I am correct about the scales the knife will be 45 plus years of age. Although showing some wear and tear it has held up nicely.

[J1890]

Wow Quick Steel that is a sweet easy open
I just got this Robeson 633594 stockman. Does anyone know if this is Bakelite or delrin?

[tongueriver]

I don't know how old your very nice Robeson is, but Delrin was first used on knife handles 1960/61.

I don't think it's either one of those. It looks like good 'ol rough black which is more "rubbery". Maybe robeson called it black composition, I don't know.

[TripleF]

Got a bunch of junkers but this was the cream of the crop. An Elinox Victorinox Picnicker muti tool knife with serrated main blade....RARE.

[Quick Steel]

Turns out the Imperial I posted above was made sometime between the early 20s and 1935. Much older than I originally thought. Anybody have a way of determining the authenticity of real tortoise shell?

[313 Mike]

Very nice new pick ups fellas. Scott is really spreading around the knife joy....way to go Scott
