Phil, you are really getting good at this. Nice work. ___Davetreefarmer wrote:While Miss Joy was doing her physical therapy this mornin', I ran a few errands and had a few minutes to check out the local antique store. I looked around and didn't see much that interested me and the owner asked, "Did I show you the knives last time?" I said no and he says, "Here's one", and laid out a 3207 CV, then he dug into a file cabinet a drug out a about a dozen knives. I made an offer on four, he said, almost, then I countered with, "Throw in the Uncle Henry, that's been neglected and abused." He grinned, I'm pleased! Then he said, "You got all the good ones!"

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Apparently I'm having a hankering for cattle knives as the 3 knives I pick up today at the Lubbock gun & Knife show were all cattle knives.

For some reason cattle knives are all that I would expect to find in Lubbock! Very nice haul there.espn77 wrote:Apparently I'm having a hankering for cattle knives as the 3 knives I pick up today at the Lubbock gun & Knife show were all cattle knives.

There was one I really liked but I didn't have any knowledge on it. It has steer heads for bolsters and also had cattle knife acid etched/stamped in the blade. Like a moron I can't remember who made it. I thought it was pretty cool.

Here's a really nice Schatt & Morgan that Lee (LongBlade) slipped in my hand at the Mystic knife show.
It's the only Schatt & Morgan I own. 4" closed. I will be smiling and packin' this one.
Thanks, Lee.

Awesome trapper! Mr. Carson made some beautiful knives.bladebuddy wrote:I owe Jerry a picture of my new Fighting Bull jumbo trapper. This was built by Wendell Carson. Both blades are stamped front and back. Fighting Bull in a circle on the front. Crossed tomahawks with Carson over center on back.

Found this Randall Hall & Co. junker at a yard sale. Bought it because the pattern is a bit odd. It's got kind of a swell-center/gunstock/sleeveboard thing going on.
