I also found the knife in a copy of a 1951 flier, the same year I was born. I must say, I wish I was in as good condition as the knife is. :mrgreen:

I just got this great lookin Hammer Brand for $7.00. Nice minty condition with grey, silver and red swirl handles. I like the punch blade. The blades snap shut with a nice loud crack. Very nice knife for the money.

Nice old Hammer Nick! ::tu::

Here is one I tried to post yesterday but put it in the wrong thread. ::dang::

It is a Hammer Brand (Imperial) too. For some strange reason I like the older ones better than the newer ones. Maybe it is because they have survived so long & still work. :mrgreen:

Great looking knife there Hogkiller, I am a serious sucker for filework on a knife. What's that little jewel look like when it's opened up..

Thanks,

Alright.. ::tu:: ::tu:: It looks better than I imagined, That filework on that Case is very sharp (pun intended)..Did you purchase it with filework on the knife or have it done at a later time..?

Celluloid Scales

Post by 9ball »

Here is a Schrade Walden celluloid I have had for sometime. Only the nick side/face of the master blade has been mirror polished, there was a discussion on this awhile back.
Never did find out if there was a purpose for this or not.

Near mint, never used or carried. I had it set up to sell a couple of years back and since I do not see many of them, I decided to keep it. Plus, I kinda like it also.
I guess the Boss will have the call on this one.

9ball :)
