That one must have had a lot of pocket time with out ever being opened. Blade looks like there has been hardly any use but the handles are dinged up. I wish I'd found somethin' worth while today. :(
A Sod Buster is always a very practical knife in my way of thinkin'. ::tu::

Farmer I doubt it's saw much pocket time I guessing its been rattling around in his box of sale knives for a while. ::shrug::

Hi, Harold; good to hear from you. Pesky computers! :( We have folk in Florida, also, and our thoughts and prayers go out to all in the South; it has been a rough year for lots of people.

Yes, Lee, it was good to get out and see you, Steve, Gunsil, and Barry. I got a few bargains as well, and I know you did okay. :wink:

After the show, I picked up my mom, and we went up to the veterans cemetery to see dad. On the way out, there was an antique store that is never open, but yesterday, it was. I pawed around in the rusty tools and junk, and found a few nice treasures. Here's my $15 pile. I particularly like the hammer head at the top.

Glenn, that's what I call a successful find! That folding hunter looks like it was just waitin' on you to do your magic on it as well as the electrician knife! ::tu::

Knives from the North Star Blade Collectors meeting today. A Western States (arched stamp) camper with Buffalo shield, a Judson NY lock back made in Germany with nice Green bone scales, a Warren Bros. 1890 tuxedo pen with smooth bone handles and a trick knife one of the club members sent home for one of my grandkids.____Dave

We both felt like walking a little bit this morning after our doctor appointment, so we went to a big antique store, 2 levels, 22,000 square feet the sign said. Found a bunch of knives, way too many from across the pond but I was able to root out several, all with USA credentials to ride home with us.
A little Buck 305, a small Kutmaster stockman, a largerer Kutmaster stockman that is unsharpened but has some spots on the blades and then a Queen culinary knife with real Winterbottom handles. If the fixed blade tang stamps are the same as the folders it is a 1952-'55, still has an etch on the blade.
Have no idea about the age of the Buck or the 2 Kutmasters.
EDIT: I believe the little Buck falls in the 1971-'86 era, based on the Buck info here on AAPK Tang Stamps.

Nice grabs, TF! I always liked those Kutmasters, some you can even find with nice bone on them.

Got these yesterday at the Flea Market.
First up is this tiny Jack. Can't make out the stamp if it actually has one.
The main blade is kinda knackered. It's 2 and 1/4" long.

Next up is this Camilus Jack. It goes 2 and 1/2"
2017-09-24 08.36.47.jpg
And lastly We have an Imperial Pen. 2 and 3/4". I like em.

This one is coming to me compliments of The Bay; 4 1/4" Chris Wolf, in good shape and not expensive. I had a similar Chris Wolf which i sold (also most reasonably) to an esteemed AAPK'er. I have missed it's unique ruggedness. I think i will be very pleased with this one.
