I love the Sea Dragon bone! Very nice Great pick-up, I think that Sea Dragon Mini Trapper sells out fast when they come in stock.

Thanks!
I think it sold out in about 2 minutes or less.

Received this Ulster 3rd model WW2 10th Mountain Division utility knife from our own knifegnome, Scott Lupinski. Scott is a great guy to deal with. Now to keep an eye out for the 1st model with the philips head screwdriver welded to the bail.

You fellers are showing some great old knives!
Floyd, this is a beauty!
I'm impressed with the shackle/bail shape. So many of the old knives similar to this, camping/scout patterns, are missing the shackles. Looks like this one was designed to stay attached.

Thanks Philip, I suppose the bail was of a sturdier design as the little philips head screwdriver was welded to the bails in the first model.

... That is an AWESOME pickup D.L. A very nice score ... Great bones. ...

... My only disagreement would be with your reference material.... stating that the Canadians "were very effective fighters" .... I not sure cutting down a bunch of trees and drinking a bunch Labatt Blue Light beer and harvesting some maple syrup counts as "very effective fighting" ....

Thanks GSP. If you're visit by a ghost tonight it might be Roland.

Bought this Old Timer improved muskrat off the AAPK site from Muskrat Man. It filled a spot in my Old Timer, Uncle Henry collection.

That is a great pattern, glad it filled a spot in your collection.
We keep one in the kitchen windowsill, it's a bit on the "well used" side and gets regular use.

Thanks guys. Very happy with it. It's in great condition. It will get some carry time for sure.

I received an email advert last week from Red Hill Cutlery regarding this Commemorative Barlow with oak handles made from the flooring of the WWII barracks that were at Ft Knox, Kentucky. There were two designs, a large Barlow and a smaller Barlow, but both were identical except for their size.

Anyway, I clicked on the link to the Patton Museum located at Ft Knox and filled out the purchase form for the large Barlow. I gave a 'donation' for the knife. These knives were commissioned through RHC and the knives were made by Bear & Sons out of Alabama. 100 of each were made.

I believe they did a really nice job on these knives...at least I'm very pleased with the one I received. I'll eventually end up gifting it to my Son in Law who was in the Army, albeit, he was never stationed at Ft Knox. But it will be a nice memento for him.

Thanks for looking...

[doglegg]

Cool materials!

[bighomer]

They are real nice looking knives.If they ever make any from my barracks at Fort Jackson SC I'd probably purchase one, I expect they are long gone, as they were condemned when we moved into them in ' 65. The linoleum on the floor was wore through and we hated it when it got cold enough for heat for it was almost non existent and we all hated fire watch. I'd rather just been cold. Enough of the war stories.

Looks good to me. I can imagine that for an Army guy they would be really cool.

It it kind of funny, but when I read KL's post I thought that I would like the see something made out of the Navy barracks I lived in at Philadelphia, just so I would know they were gone.. They must have been a hundred years old in 1975.

Boker Italian Classic

I have a copy of this knife, JB, and it still performs like I just got it.
I'm not a fan of knives with flipper-tabs, but on this knife they really make the blade slide out smoothly and quickly.
Nice catch, and to AAPK!

Thanks to the complements and sorry for late reply had forgotten had posted. Have purchased two more Bokers that were on sale

Nice barlow Ken, Bear does their best work on barlows, nice commemorative.

I got a commemorative knife in today too, a Lone Wolf Paul knife. This one commemorates VJ Day in 1945. My wife’s father fought in the Pacific during WWII on Okinawa, Sai Pan and some other islands. I wish I could find out if the wood on this knife came from a battleship or even the Missouri. The display case is really nice on this too. Made from the same wood and has two magnetic closures on it, very nice.

[KLJ77]

That is a beautiful VJ Commemorative knife, Mark. The wood on the knife is Teak Wood from the deck of the Missouri. Below is a link to Knife Center who provides a very nice description of your commemorative knife.

Thanks to all others who commented on my knife. I appreciate the them.

Thanks you so much Ken, I thought it had to be teak wood from the Missouri but didn’t have the confirmation until now. Really glad I bought this one.
Appreciate the link, I’ve copied the content and have it in my files now. Thanks again.

During his recent visit I gave my son a Cobratec automatic, which he surrendered to the Canadians at the boarder. I ordered a replacement for his and got myself another while I was at it. This time I told him to put it in his pocket and don't tell any communist that he has it.
