I think everyone understands you points in this post.
I may have expressed myself incorrectly when I said "made" in the CS shop.
I should have said customized or modified.
In any event your knowledge is invaluable.
I learn several things here every day!

It's always a pleasure
I definitely miss those guys and gals, it was the only job I've ever had where the day went by so quickly I wished I could put in a few more hours to get things done, and oftentimes when Jean S. was hanging around finishing up inspections I would. I really got immersed in the work, although those times were spent half working and half talking lol! Wouldn't trade them for anything.

Re: Canal Street Lockback ????
This seller has relisted this knife for $135 still claiming it to be a Canal Street Cutlery knife. I sent the seller the most strongly worded message i have ever sent to an ebay member:
"You have been informed by more than one collector of Schrade/CSC knives that this knife has nothing to do with Canal Street Cutlery. It is a Schrade LB7 on which someone has placed a CSC shield. The value of this knife is in the $20-$30(max.) range.
The first time you listed it in good faith believing it to be a CSC knife. Now that you know it has nothing to do with CSC you are being dishonest by listing it as such.
You have no integrity. Shame on you.
sincerely, roland"

Surprising... due to the glowing opinion of those that know her.
I hope this works out well.

Yes it is at odds with what those who know the seller have stated. It is possible that this person no longer writes the descriptions. She might have passed the site name to a family member who has lower ethical standards.

Re: Canal Street Lockback ????
Guys if you'll go back and reread what I wrote about my prior experience with this seller you'll see that her currently less than completely ethical business practices are in keeping with what I've seen out of her in the past. You don't sell factory seconds without identifying them as such if you're trying to be honest and forthcoming about your merchandise.

Re: Canal Street Lockback ????
I know this seller and have dealt with her over ebay and in person in her shop. Her husband is a collector as well. Her prices are usually high and she only sells what her husband doesn't want.
She does not know knives that well and usually relies on what the person she buys them from for her information, but her husband does know knives. I always view her listings and the knives in her shop very closely and make my own determination.
I have purchased some very good pieces from her but have stayed away from way more than I have bought.

Re: Canal Street Lockback ????
Phil & Tom what you describe explains the situation: Seller is primarily a business-woman, we are primarily collectors. Hence our objectives are different. Business person wants money, knife collector wants truth about knife.
