Picked up a couple Lionsteels Barlows with Olive handles.I was able to get from a AAPK member.

Not sure why I pulled the trigger on this one the other day, but it’s exactly what I have always wanted in a Sodbuster, a thumb stud, linerlock and a pocket clip. Smith and Sons had this made in Maniago Italy. G10 handles and a carbon steel blade. I may end up having to carry this one. Still uncertain what I am going to do with it, but the more I look at it and handle it, the more I just want to use it.

Now that is one cool Sod Buster there! Nice find!

Too bad it would be an illegal carry here in Germany because you can open it with one hand.

I found this PAL RH-70 for $12 on eBay. The seller said, "found in tacklebox", and it will need some rust removal.

Should clean up nicely though. I'd think.

Nice pair Jamie!

Got these in from Mr. Finamore, he calls them honing his skills at fixed blades, I call them very nice and knives that I’m proud and not scared to use. Thanks much Jeff

Also picked up a Bradford guardian 3 from a AAPK member

Nice bunch of knives you showed us today Jamie. I'm partial to the Lion Steel folders, and happen to own one of their "Bestman" models with spear-point blade and ebony covers and I just love it. Your pair with Olivewood covers look specially nice too.

Yes I too am going to own more of them, I searched out their Barlow models and they no longer make them with olive scales, but I went through the lionsteel forum and they were pictures of the Barlows with olive handles back in 2018, so my guess is 2018-2019 on the two models I picked up. But I will tell you they are some fine cutlery. The best man series are back ordered but are on my wants lists, so when they become available I have a couple.

Got this Rough Ryder in the mail yesterday. Look for more over on the
RR thread.

Nice covers on that one, David! Bone? And what is your opinion of the bolster lock?

Just got this Fiskars Puukko for just over $20 shipped. I'm not sure of age, and as huge as Fiskars is, you'd think there's a large amount of info on their products before they bought Gerber, but nope.

It's lightweight, well balanced, and has a reasonably thick (1/8") five-inch blade. However, it's almost too pretty to use.

Go ahead, you know you want to use it.

Got this Sears Craftsman 9481 Trapper in the mail on Friday. It's 3 7/8" with very fine I guess you'd call it "saw cute" delrin handles. It cost €33.50 shipped, which was about €10 more than I really wanted to spend on it but I knew I'd probably never find another one like it in Germany so I bit the bullet on this one. I'm glad I did though because I really like it. Except for some spots on the blades & springs it's in very good condition. It won't shave off hair or cut any paper (yet) but it doesn't appear as if it has ever been sharpened either. Over all, I am stoked about adding it to my EDC rotation. I especially like the blade forms, stamp & the shield.

Thanks for looking friends!

I’m a fan of Craftsman, I suppose because Sears was so much of my family’s life growing (before there was any Walmart, Target, etc.). This one looks great, Tom! I think you made a very good purchase!
