That's a great idea Ann...
Just remember to leave the drawers open once in a while so they have good air circulation. Celluloid and all.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Good looking bunch Scott.
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Always enjoy the variety of what you find Scott.

Two KA-Bars from the North Star Blade Collector's meeting. I like older knives but these two just made such a nice picture I brought them home. I think they are from the 1980's and I have a couple more (a sunfish and a large coke bottle hunter) in the safe that I've had for a few years so I suppose I should pull them out for a family picture. ____Dave

My local pawn shops have nothing but junk.
Dave, those are beauties. I look forward to the family pic. Especially with the sunfish.djknife13 wrote:Two KA-Bars from the North Star Blade Collector's meeting.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Nice, gentlemen!
I have two to present, so far, one picked up yesterday and one today.
The first little celluloid item isn’t exactly a knife, but it’s made like one. All four ‘blade’ are manicure tools. I picked it up for five bucks at an antique store.
The big one is new and very inexpensive. I just can’t remember the name of its type. I’ll have to go look it up. Anyway, it’s perfect for a purse knife. Super sharp and very thin, still it has quite a sturdy blade and ought to do just about anything I may need. It won’t even make a bulge in the purse! attachment=0]A59AC760-7CBA-4199-8E52-6BCAC79E705C.jpeg[/attachment] [

It’s a douk-douk, the Tiki version. Similar to a Mercator.

Stumbled across a guy that needed some money today and brought these home

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Holy Hanna, what a haul! I like the fixed on the far right, the melon tester and that odd shaped fixed. Actually, I like ‘em all!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
That is quite a haul! Appears that all are HOKs. The Pal caught my eye first, then the big Case, then the Uncle Henry filet knife.....

Pal?! Which one?! My view of the pic is too blurry to see stamps and my knowledge level is still too blurry to recognize it!treefarmer wrote:That is quite a haul! Appears that all are HOKs. The Pal caught my eye first, then the big Case, then the Uncle Henry filet knife.....

Pals do seem to be popping up, don’t they? I have two old Pal Brand versions, a fixed and a pen.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
If you double click on the pic it blows up to full page and you can read PAL in big letters on the shield....The PAL has been sold though..the sampler appears to be made in France....can't make out the tang stamp...the fixed blade is a 'Remington RH 71, 3 Schrades... 167UH Fillet-152OT Sharpfinger-and the small one is an LB1. The one sporting the True Value Shield is a Hibbard ,Spencer, Bartlett - a no name made in USA with slanted bolsters..and then of course the Case XX 6265 SAB. Also got a 400 Rd brick of Aguila 40g .22's for a $20 bill. I'm hoping to meet up with the guy, an old welder with bad lungs, next week and see what else he has...met him at the VA hospital. Kinda looked like he was carrying most of his life around in his old Chevy van. What really caught my eye was the Remington Nylon 66 and the S&W .44 stainless he had. Didn't have that kind of cash on me though.zoogirl wrote:Pal?! Which one?!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Scott, you've done well again! Can't quite read all the tangs or recognize the makers but they look like some good ones. The bone on the knife on the right looks good.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Thank you Scott. I hate to take up your time just to feed my curiosity. But right off the top, do you have any info on either of them? Google turned up nothing on Sundwall.
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
QS there is an s in the middle, I think it is a town in Sweden. It's Sundsvall. At least that is what came up for me.
