I traded a 1970's John Primble stockman for this Cattaraugus I guess it's a jack knife , today. Took this pic outside but handles are a lighter brown than the pic shows , the tablet I use don't take very good pic's.

Very nice cigar jack, Delmar. You don't see too many easy-open cigar jacks like that and the master blade is nice and full. The handles are bone, yes?
Excellent specimen, sir!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Dave,
It looks like you have at least one folder in the knife block, one of them French things, maybe, with the bee or fly on the back, a Laguiole or somethin' like that.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Yeah Phil, that is probably the best item in the lot, and it isn't much. The block is pretty neat and there are interesting knives in it but nothing of any value. I paid $5 for the package. ____Davephilco wrote:I spy an ice pick in that gaggle of knives Dave.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Good eye Philip. Actually it looks like maybe two. The one farther to the right with pakkawood handles looks like it may also be a Laguiole.treefarmer wrote:Dave,

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
The handles may have started out French, but somewhere a Pakastan got a hold of them and added his blades and made them fixed blades. There are some nice old butcher knives in the pile but nothing great. The auctioneer was pulling stuff out from under a tarp and selling it in the rain so we were bidding pretty much blindly and the prices we paid weren't enough to worry much about what we were getting. The block is pretty cool. It has some kind of a filler that allows knives to be stuck in anywhere instead of slots. I doubt it's very sanitary for kitchen use but I can store 20 or 25 knives in this thing. I paid $5 for the package and was the only bidder. ___Davejerryd6818 wrote:Good eye Philip.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I made a block like that using some walnut I had. I used bamboo skewers as the filler. Never gave sanitation a thought and 20 years later, here I still am.djknife13 wrote: The block is pretty cool.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Yours looks way cleaner than the one I bought full of rusty knives off a hay wagon full of primitives and old tools. They sure hold a ton of knives and any size. ___Dave

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I got the idea from one I had seen someplace and tailored the dimensions to my needs. It's as handy as a pocket on a shirt. Sure glad I put in the time and effort.
Clean yours up, throw away that nasty, unsanitary 'stuff', go to a party store and pick up about a million dollars worth of bamboo skewers and put them in it. You'll be happy you did.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Now, that looks like it WORKS. If'n ya get too many knives to jam in there, just load up a few skewers with shrimps, peppers, onions, etc. and grill them off. I like this idea a lot. And I am a BIG fan of bamboo in the kitchen. It is awesome material.jerryd6818 wrote:I got the idea from one I had seen someplace and tailored the dimensions to my needs.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Every knife or tool looks in excellent shape. Exceptionally nice haul. Congrats.
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
So I got carried away at the Wallace (Id.) flea market today. What's wrong with me? for what I spent on these I could have gotten a really gorgeous camillus sailor's Knife, but for some reason I'd rather have these interesting old beaters. The bottom is a Grand Rapids Mich. Navy fliers knife. Next up a Holub Sycamore Lineman's knife (I gotta be readin' that wrong). Next, a Keen Kutter, I don't Know what the CAC is for, but it was a dandy at one time. the blades are all heavy like whittlers. Next a Fairmount cutlery co. it's seen better days. The lady's leg has a missing blade and a short one, but anything with an opener or a corkscrew I gotta get. Then a little advertiser. Mary Jo says 'this one's from Havre" I took her word for it and bought it (I collect old Montana trinkets and give aways). I got it home, it's from Harvey La. Oh well.... And last a nice little Pfluger Fly reel, I've been collectin' fishin' tackle a lot longer than knives.

That was a worthwhile trip if you want my opinion. Really like that large Navy knife.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Nothing spectacular from the Marble Arms show this weekend but I got a few knives on the way too and from the show and a nice machinist's cabinet for $40 at the show. It was a pain to haul a half mile to the car but it has metal drawer glides and is in good shape. The knives are a Buck 110 from 1991, a unmarked metal probably WW2 vintage, a Lamphlough (Germany) bone jack with fairly full pitted blades and decient snap, a Marietti hawkbill, penny style that appears to have had almost no use and a daisy BB gun to shoot at the indoor gallery I got at an auction last week. ____Dave
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Pretty nice score you got there, I too used to have one of them Daisy's ~ Growing up on a Ranch my first BB Gun was the Daisy 102 until Christmas one year my Parents got me and my brother both a Daisy 840 ~ Oh Boy what a Christmas Morning that was ~ We were Blessed my Parents always made us as well as LIFE a Blessing and a Celebration ~ New Years, Saint Patrick's Day, Easter, Round-Up's , Fourth of July, Summer Camping Trips, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas ~ Those BB Guns were a Surprise from Santa Clause my Parents always leaving one gift that wasn't wrapped from Santa and one Christmas Eve Present we were allowed to open ~ We always had a Real Tree from the Christmas Tree lot too going down there in our Ford Torino Station Wagon ~ Christmas Tree Lot always Smelled Fantastic ~ It's funny seeing something from our childhood can bring back a flood of good times and good memories ~ Anyways NICE SCORE ~
According to Today's Standards we may of not had Much ~ But We Always had each other ~

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Wow, I just did a search on e-bay lookin' at wooden machinist cabinets, I'd say that Dave did very well! I didn't realize those things were so well thought of, some of them were down right high priced. I did see a genuine metal tag for one that was 1/2 of what he paid for the whole cabinet. Congratulations, Dave!
