Jerry, you should do a group shot of all your orange knives sometime. OH

A buddy of mine owns an old hardware store - he no longer sells hardware, but uses the building for another business. The attic is full of old hardware fixtures, displays, etc. I asked him a couple of years ago if he remembered seeing any knife displays. He recently found this one and gave it to me today - not marked by brand, so it could have been built by a hardware distributor for any number of knives - (last ones in there were "your choice, $3.95"). It is in pretty good shape, gonna clean it up and put it back in service as a display piece for my collectible knives. He also has this clock hanging in his storeroom - notice the emblem on the clock face. OH

Great looking display. Congratulations.

dogg -- Have you considered a SAK Electricians knife as a work knife? I received mine (finally) today and I can see where it would lend it's self to the uses an electrician would put it to. Don't know if it would hold up to everyday use, but...

Stock picture. Pictures I took didn't turn out to well.

A fellow at work gave me this one today. 6 1/8" closed, heavily used, stamped J.W.STUTTER on all blades (hard to make out on some). I posted more photos and comments in the military knives thread.

I wondered around in Lowes yesterday. I should not a done it but I could not resist.
I picked up a Kershaw OD-2. 3 and 1/8 length closed. 5 and 3/8 overall. 2 and 1/8 cutting edge.
I never knew what size these were. CUTE little bugger.

Scaled up to 4" size it would be a neat knife!

I will attempt to get some pics took and posted...
