That Tiburon looks very much like the WW2 Western W31 Parachutist. I'll need to check that one out.
Re: Show off your fixed blades!
Producer that's a very handsome knife. I really like the lines on it.
Roger you should post a drool bucket warning before making a post like that one. Fantastic bunch of Boker fixed blades.

Roger, you are the one-man Boker arm of the Smithsonian Museum and Louvre combo. Unbelievable cutlery which you have shown (and some you have not, but which I have seen). I have sometimes used your images as a screensaver on my computer monitor.philco wrote: Roger you should post a drool bucket warning before making a post like that one.

Re: Show off your fixed blades!
Thanks guys. I'm glad you liked them. The real OLD Boker fixed blades have been very hard for me to find. The second and third knives in my post are of much later production that I've just always liked.
A pocket knife is still an intimate personal possession of the individual who carries it and consequently deserves the best of materials, finish and workmanship in its production. (Quoted from Boker's 1928 cutlery catalog).
Re: Show off your fixed blades!
Producer, awesome knife. Very nice red handles and shape of blade.
Here are three Schrade Cut Co knives, stamped SCCO. The one on the left and middle one just arrived today. A package deal from eBay. The sheath on the right is new (dyed and burnished) and the other two came with the new arrivals. The left one I think is a left-handed sheath(?) but great for a right handed reverse blade draw. Cal, I don't think they are original but I'm no expert. Any info appreciated. Thanks

The greedygulo, beautiful Bokers. Love them.
SolWarrior, excellent Schrade CutCo blades and sheaths.
I never met a Schrade I didn't like
Re: Show off your fixed blades!
Just picked up this Kutmaster Pigman. The price was right and I couldn't refuse. The handle feels good but the color is too much. I think this knife may get an antler handle soon.

Re: Show off your fixed blades!
I remember John Hart and how startled I was when he substituted for Clayton Moore. I wonder if Hart was a knife collector or this was an isolated piece. Very interesting in any event.

Re: Show off your fixed blades!
I forget the ebay seller's name, but he was an some sort of agent for Mr. Hart and has been selling off a lot of stuff, including a bunch of knives Mr. Hart had collected over the years.
Mr. Hart was a knife collector to some degree and, from what I read about the alleged history of some of the knives, Mr. Hart kept the knives he wore/used (or bought them for himself) in his various movies.
For a while, when you bought one of Mr. Hart's knives, a "freebie" included a canceled check with Mr. Hart's "autograph". I remember that one of the knives being sold was a stag/fake stag handled Imperial "Sportsman-style". Nothing special about the knife other than being Mr. Hart's.
The reason I remember it is that the canceled check displayed to go with that knife was for pajamas at Sears.
Never even bid on any of his knives since apparently he never bought/acquired a Kabar or a Western, the 2 brands I primarily collect.

Nice group MadH, love the bunch shots. The Becker too. And that tye-dyed blue back drop, mark of a true Dead head. Too bad he's gone, Jerry that is. But the music remains.

Re: Show off your fixed blades!
I just finished this "wedding Knife" for my great-nephew who is getting hitched Sept 9th. The shape is a copy of my mom's old 1940's carving knife but this one has fancy English Walnut handle with mosaic pins. Blade is O-1 tool steel. Terry

I don't recall seeing acrylic on a fixed blade before. Good looking and interesting.

Re: Show off your fixed blades!
Not sure sharing something you made yourself counts or not, but this is my new butchering slash hunting knife it measures 13" 3/4 with 8" blade it can do just about anything in the woods or campsite or in the butcher shack it is strong carbon steel pinned stag antler with some spacers. Just thought I would share so I can see what the knife community and people thought of my work ~ It's hand forged and tempered for a 59RCH ~ Convex Grind ~ I've been trying my hand at making knives now on and off for the past three years, I first got into stock removal method and a few months ago I started forging and I have to say, I'm liking forging more because there is a lot less grinding and dust and my belts sure go a lot further ~ thanks for looking ~ !
