I will try and post a few next week Dimitri, my wife fell off a step ladder almost three weeks ago, destroyed her right shoulder, two more breaks in her arm, and broke her ankle. Might be home next week from rehab and I will try to post some then. AAPK has helped while sitting in the hospital with her, giving me some relief. Really enjoying the old ones before 1960.

So sorry to hear about your wife Bill, I wish her well and hope for a speedy recovery

Don't worry about posting pictures your wife's well being is the most important thing right now.

My comment was actually directed to the more senior members here, but I won't get into that now I been down that road many times in this forum.

Some nice additions, Woodwalker! That slim Robeson jack with the long bolster is nice! The first knife is interesting, can't tell from the photo, possibly carved ivory? Also, what does the tang say on that one?

[Miller Bro's]

Beautiful knives, Dimitri, lots of great stag in the first pic!

Thanks Dan!

Probably my favorite handle material

[Miller Bro's]

Here are a few of mine. Some of them are in rough shape but I like them. Thanks for looking.

Nice!!

Love that Waterville!

Beauties Dan!

Hard to find both of them, thanks to a member here I finally found a Jess Crouch a few years ago

[danno50]

Those are looking good, Dimitri! I also got my pair from a member here on AAPK.

Danno that first one is a HSB. It's some sort of plastic maybe. Not Ivory. Sharpest dang knife I got that's for sure.

Who is the maker of the hobo?

The hobo is a Robeson Shuredge. WW1 per Mr. Charlie. Got some issues with the blade.

Thanks, other than the chips it looks really good

On your HSB, I am pretty sure N.Y. Knife Co. made that knife I have seen that celluloid handle design before.

Thank you for the info on the HSB. You have some of the finest knives known to man. I love seeing your old knives!

[Miller Bro's]

Your welcome!

Thank you for your kind comment, I really enjoy collecting old knives

I should also note that I traded a few items with our very own Mr. Ed Landers for the HSB! A very good man!

Some more beauties Dimitri ... Hard not to like that stag unique Schrade Key knife and 4 jigged bone Press Buttons

Bill - As Dimitri said - I'm really sorry to hear about your wife and indeed hoping she has a speedy and full recovery soon!! Family always before knives Bill ... I'm just glad the knives being shown are giving you some relief and enjoyment under the circumstances!!

Woodwalker - Nice knives and I can certainly see why that Waterville is your prize - sweet!!!!

Dan and Dimitri - Those Jess Crouch and Chris Wolf knives are very cool ... For good reason I had an itch to get one or both of those awhile back but came up empty... I just thought the background behind them was really interesting... and though the itch dissipated it may reappear if the opportunity comes around at the right time ... As an aside I went through the same thing after driving past the Collins site in CT - the next week the itch appeared that needed to be scratched and I bought a Collins axe and 4 others .. Luckily that subsided .. What a "disease" and those itchy symptoms can be serious
