[deanmm56]

If I was " a kid in a candy store " I would be asking for one of each !!!!!

Gentleman,

A fine collection of knives there

[Froggyedge]

Hi Don!

Long time...
Nice ones, and you know better than most how to use them!
How many of those are users by the way?

[bamafan]

I only have a few Congress patterns. Working on adding a few more though.

[carvin don]

Canal Street Cutlery Stag Congress.

Hello Jim,

Sweet looking congress you have there

[rangerbluedog]

Coupla more pearly congress knives. Both United Bokers (1984-1994), fake pearl, carbon steel blades.
Just got the big guy in today. Going to work with me tomorrow.

[big monk]

Not much of a Congress fan, _________but you guys sure have some mighty fine looking knives !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BluDog,that big ol' pearl,looks awsome***** with the double bolsters _______and the Canal Street stags,made me take a second look too

[On Edge]

Hey Edge_______that 3 blade,came out of a set ( Circle C Series ),where they had a,2,3, & 4 blade stag congress___bought it from ,an AAPK,member,_____robinetn. ( Robert Roark )_________after someone ""STOLE"" the 5488 from him****** ain't she a beauty

[ky greg]

Here's my members of Congress.... and you guys have some beautiful knives!!!

[tjmurphy]

About the only Congress I have. Not as new nor as pretty as those shown thus far, but kind of an oddity. Really can't find any information on it. It's a CRANE BRAND from Robert Klaas of Kissing Crane fame, but only has one crane.

She is indeed! One of the sweetest I have seen ...

[On Edge]

Hey TJ,

Wouldn't that make her a "Lonely Crane"?

[tjmurphy]

Yeh, it probably would, or maybe, he just kicked her to the curb. I think I heard somewhere that the Kissing Cranes and the Henckel Twins were double dating. Just what I heard.

[ky greg]

talkin in chat about the handle material on one of my Bokers...I was told by the person whom I got it from that it was called "cracked ice".

[johnny twoshoes]

Here's one I used to carry all the time, it's my brothers now and he likes it.

[JoeBob441]

This is a 1973 6488 I really like. Wish it was a 1970 though.

Joe

[Jacknifeben]

Here are 4 of my CATTARAUGUS congress patterns.

[JoeBob441]

Those Cats are special!

[deanmm56]

Hello all,

And Merry Christmas to everyone here at AAPK

Since we are showing off our congress ..... and I don't mean anything political .... here are four of my favorites ...

Just some nice Case Classics

[johnnierotten]

How about a GEC made congress....
You all are killing me with all these pretty Congress knives....its one of my favorite patterns!!

[Archer]

Johnnie that is sweet looking. I'm becoming a fan of this model, I just ordered my first congress a couple days ago, the GEC half congress in cherry wood.

[johnnierotten]

Sounds like a nice one....make sure to post some pics.

[Luckypaul777]

Nice knives guys. The congress is a favorite pattern of mine. I collected the Case 88's; 10dot and back but they became to expensive. Another beautiful large congress IMO; is the big S&M pearl with signature bolsters. I had one and let it go; now hard to fine.
