The Presto blade is my favorite.

Beautiful, stylish, and elegant Paul Knife Mark! Congrats! That one is my favorite also. You have a super 8) Paul collection!

That's a beauty, Mark, I didn't know you were a fan of the Paul series? The bottom-right in your stunning collection is my next consideration!

Thanks you Jerry, Tony and Mark. They used some stunning abalone and pearl on these.

Yes Mark the top left one is my first one. Tiger eye scales and hakkapella damascus, bought it out of the A.G. Russell catalog nearly 20 years ago. Got hooked after that first one. It’s been a smoldering urge for a long time. I have my eye on several others, just waiting on a good deal to pull the trigger.

Today I scored this little GEC 22 magnum pattern From a member here. Smooth bone scales. Excellent snap both ways and solid half stop. Run up is almost invisible. typical GEC perfection.

treefarmer wrote: Wed Jan 15, 2025 10:09 pm Have y'all seen a knife that catches your attention and the description says "unsharpened" but there is a question about the handles and you just can't resist? Well this is one I wasn't disappointed with when it arrived in the mail today.
A Queen, Large Half Congress, no tang stamp ('61-'71) with Winterbottom handles and a perfect etch on the main blade, QueenSteel#31 but with unusual colors. The mark side is bleached out similar to the EDC #49 that is with me quite often, the pile side is like a NIB #49 that is in the drawer that never sees the light of day. ::shrug:: Wondering if this knife may have been in a display cabinet, exposing the mark side to the light or sun through a store window or maybe that side just didn't get the full handle coloring treatment at the factory. And one other thing, it has half stops! ::tu::
It is what it is and "I'm as happy as a dead pig in the sunshine" with my new Queen!

Nice grab.

I have one in Stag. Great little knives. It's one of the very few multi-blade knives I own that I can pinch the main blade open without using the nail nick.
I like that stag!!! ::tu::

Thanks. In looking at the information in the Western Collectors section here ,it’s a 1966-68 made knife.

Great knife, RR-1970, it sure looks like a rugged folder. Is yours from the factory or converted? ::shrug::
