Grandpa and Dad knives

Post by MissouriGuerrilla »

Last month, I told you all about how my mother come across a small chest of my Grandpa's and how I was shocked to find six knives inside. And I told you about going thru my father's things and finding a knife I never knew he had. Well, I finally got some shots to share with you. You'll notice some of Grandpa's knives were quite used. The U.P. knife is Dad's.

Great find! And priceless treasures.

I had a similar experience several years ago when my sister found a box of my dad’s knives that I didn’t know he had. https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/kn ... hp?t=65307

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

Thanks guys. My very first pocket knife was given to me by my grandpa. So now I inherit his collection. Like it came full circle.
