A couple more interesting knives I'd like some input on
These are some that I recently acquired that I can't find much info on. There are a few that I know a little about, but not all of them. I'm really not very familiar with any of the older knives.
Please let me know if any of them are just junk.

And more.....
The I*XL George WostenHolk(?) Sheffield England was in a bunch of really cheap knives. I just happened to find it. I believe that it originally had mother of pearl or something similar on the outside of it.
I have no idea what the outside of the Sharp is or anything else about this knife.

Re: A couple more interesting knives I'd like some input on
last but not least....
I know a little about a couple of these. I am curious about the SOG QAD and Camillus the most. These were a few of the only Brownings that I had that weren't made in China, and I have always been a fan of Spyderco and Cold Steel.
Thank you for looking at my knives. I really appreciate any comments.

Too many knives to comment on bro........maybe you could post just one and then we could chime in.
On a side note.....most info on any knife can be found on ebay.

Re: A couple more interesting knives I'd like some input on
You sure have accumulated an eclectic collection! Some I see - Kingston (WW-II period), Frontier - upscale line by Imperial from the 1970's, Buck 309v made by Buck in 1989 after they took the 300 series mfg over from Camillus. I*XL was a good grade of English Sheffield made knives (for a short time owned by Schrade). Bear MGC knives are made in Jacksonville Alabama. Primble was the high end house brand offered by Belknap Hardware out of Louisville KY - subcontracted to Boker USA and others. I don't follow tactical style knives, but others here do - too many for any real discussion in a single thread - follow Scott's advice and post them individually and I'm sure you will get more info. You got some good old users in that accumulation. OH

Re: A couple more interesting knives I'd like some input on
Thank you for the info. I will be sure to post just one at a time in the future.
Old Hunter, eclectic is a serious understatement.
My father, online auction/ebay/craigslist buyer extraordinaire, recently gave me a bunch of knives. When I say "a bunch", other than telling you that there are several boxes, I really don't know how to describe it any better. I have always loved knives, but I have never been a serious collector as in brand specific. I have always carried a knife(actually.....I have them everywhere...in my truck, my purse(Yes, I am a woman.), beside the bed, on my person, in the bathroom drawer, etc...). I'm also a Mom with two small children, so I apologize if I seem to ask stupid questions. I research as much as I am able.
My dad has a very extensive Case collection as well as other various, what I would consider, high end, older knives...Old Timers, maybe a queen or two, some sterling Swiss Army, etc... One day I am going to photograph some of these for y'all to look at. I think you will find some of them very interesting.
Anyways, I have just been trying to sort the really nice knives from the trash in what I was given. I have researched a lot of them, but there are some that I can't find any information on, or at least I haven't found it yet. I plan on selling the majority of them. I don't know what kind of market there is for some of the really old, used ones, but I think that serious collectors may like them for their collections. I would rather sell them to people that I think can appreciate them rather than to people who just don't really care. I will trade some of them, too. The knives in the stores on this forum seem extremely expensive, but I realize that many are in mint condition with the boxes. I do, however, realize that my inventory is not that grade.
I, personally, have an affinity for Kershaws. A knife that I can use as a tool is my preference.
I am slowly trying to get organized. I have had most of these in boxes in my closet for almost a year. I have multi-tools, and so many Swiss Army knives that I don't know what to do with them.
Anyways, thank you for looking. I will try to not post so many next time. I really appreciate your knowledge base and time.

Nice bunch of knives. The guys and gals here will be more than happy to give you good info on them. You may even want to post some in their brand specific thread as well to get more input where available. Good luck with what ever you do with them
