I just received a Sharp branded knife advertised as a “Peanut”. It looked to me more like a “Serpentine Jack”and I believe it is just that. I really like the pattern, but it can be hard to find as it falls between the “Peanut” and the pen blade version of a small “Trapper”. This one had extra appeal as I worked at K-Mart during the time when “Sharp” knives were a Sporting Goods Department staple.

Sharp-Japan

I think it fits well with my other 3 “Serpentines”

I received a great addition to my Coke-Bottle collection from Mark at Sharpnshinyknives. This is a Robeson Shuredge, 5 1/8" closed with a 4" blade, set off by vivid Strawberry Red scales. Well centered blade, tight runup, half-stop, fine walk and talk: this knife has given me lots to enjoy.
I needed to overexpose to even approach showing how striking the red is. In hand, it is brilliant.

What a beautiful knife, Garry, and coming from Mark you gotta know it's quality.
I have long admired coke-bottle knives, but have little luck finding any with spear-point blades, so the search continues.
I actually like your pictures, on my screen the entire picture, background, knife, everything is shimmering bright and IMO looks teriffic, well done.

Great pickup, GC! That's clean as a whistle!

Thanks. It exceeded my expectations.

I never worked at K-mart, but I used to love shopping there. I too buy Sharp brand knives. I have had some since I was a teen-ager, and love 'em.

That's a fun collection there Reverand. I'm also a fan of Sharp. My favorites being those made in Japan with the Colonials a close second. I'm a sucker for a hobo knife too. That 175 with wood handles is one of my favorite barlows. I'd call it maybe a barlow light or barlowesque, the narrower taper is different and I like it.

I see it looks like you also have a Model 270 Peanut/Serpentine Jack in your very nice Sharp collection.

I never bought a Sharp knife while employed at K-Mart. At that point knives were just a daily tool (a Sabre Serprntine that was lost or stolen at some time and replaced recently), or a high school fad (an orange pearloid YCC Melon Tester that I still have after almost 60 years).

Fished this one out of the bay recently. No tang stamp. Shield reads "Star Brand Shoes Are Better". 20240617_155214.jpg⁹20240617_155232.jpg

Nice knife! I am not doubting you, brother, but from the picture I would swear it has a tang stamp. I cannot read it, and it might even be random spots of rust, but it looks like lettering to me. Here is a screenshot where I played around with the brightness & contrast:

Sorry to be so late in responding Reverand. I finally did some cleaning and some pencil lead and with a loop magnifier I can make out the cross swords of Sword Brand so it is of Camillus origin. Thanks.

Perfect blade alignment, no gaps anywhere and a resounding snap when closed. Terrible photo skills on my part.

Glad you finally got them David ... USPS made travel knives out of 'em. Sorry for the delay, and appreciate your patience!

DK, the Savage Creek Gunstock is the only spade shield currently .... but Monday July 15, a new release will be available with a spade shield also.
It is called the Sequatchie River Muskrat I have them in stock, and will upload a listing here early Monday morning.

I cannot make them avaiable until RoseCraft releases them also, on Monday morning. They are strict concerning us all releasing new knives at the same time. I can offer you a preview, which is a RCB stock photo. I will put my photos up Saturday evening, after I get back from a festival I am selling at.

Glad you like it Garry. Just now getting a chance to catch up on this thread. The red bone on that is bright and beautiful, it’s hard to capture in a photo. I’ve found that the Robeson’s by Queen are one of my favorite brands that Queen made, they rank right up there with Schatt and Morgan.
