An awesome group of knives, Barry. I especially like the pattern and bolsters on the Stewart knife. That one caused me to do a search........I maybe knew at one time that Jimmy Stewart was the grandson of a hardware store owner, but I had forgotten. What an awesome piece to have in your collection. ::not_worthy::
Very nice, thanks for posting! ::tu:: ::tu::
Thanks Ike, I never knew that. I find it interesting to be able to trace back the origin of the etch from these old knives.

My favorite Schrade and a couple favorite Case pieces with great bones IMHO. They ain't making it like this anymore. Crying shame. Bet if Case resurrected this kind of bone from the vault they would sell out everything they put it on in minutes. :mrgreen:

Man those look good. And missed the dog groomer. That's a very interesting pattern I've never seen before and great bones. The last couple you put up are beauties too. Good show and love seeing the kind like that. Actually forgot about this thread. Thanks for the reminder and the good show. ::tu:: ::tu:: ::handshake:: ya made me want to post a few.
