I agree OH, great find. Rusty springs are better than rusty blades, and from what I see in your photo this knife is in very good condition cosmetically, so I call that a win!

Old Hunter wrote:Schrade 127UH Lockblade Hunter. I picked this knife up earlier this week at a pawn & gun - it had been stored poorly so the spring was rusted to the point the blade had to be pulled hard to open and pushed closed (no snap). It looked like it had never been used, so I took a chance (it was CHEAP) - soaked the tang, pivot area, and spring in oil since Tuesday night. Been working the blade and adding oil - working right well now, locks well, even has snap once more on closing. Had to put an edge on it - I like tinkering with knives. OH
Good one. I have a fondness for folding hunters and Schrades in particular. Thanx for showing it. ::tu::

Picked up a nice R343 Remington harness jack today at the North Star Blade Coll. club meeting for very reasonable. I won't say how much but it was under $36.___Dave

Scott, how come I drive 150 miles (each way) and only come home with one knife and you go to a few estate sales and come home with a bag full. We've got old people having sales up here. Well not in the winter but still.... ___Dave

Nice Remington jack, Dave.

Here's an old Wallkill River pocket folder that takes a back seat to NYK Hammer Brand.
Still a great little 3 3/8", all steel knife. I'm going to sharpen it and pack it for a while.
Thanks for looking.

Looks to be in splendid condition Joe. I guess after all these years a little pocket time won't hurt it. :)

It deserves some pocket time just for surviving so long. It's value will not go down, and you will get some enjoyment to go with the joy of finding it. ::nod::

Nice knife joe. I love giving old knives some use. It's a shame so many of these great old workhorses get retired when they can be so enjoyable to use. I always have a Leatherman on my belt for anything that may overtax any of my old knives that I carry. Yours has that "just like Grandpa used to carry" look to it I love in knives. ___Dave

Joe, Dave, fantastic knives. Both of you. Wow!

I'd pack them too.

That folding sickle is interesting. Will be interesting finding out opinions as to it's origion. Maybe East Indian, Ceylon, Pakistan of North African. I'll be watching in case someone actually knows.___Dave

Those Schrades are sweet, some of my favorites to collect GD!


I just picked these up. This one is a little rough, maybe some cell outgassing, but a neat example, I don't think I have another "Bay State Knife Co."

I don't usually go for these, but the price was right on it. I think it is cool!

If I found a Robeson like that for a good price I sure as heck would grab it!

I couldn't resist buying this dagger/fishting knife with unfinished tang.....
There's also no real tang stamp except for some sort of anglo-saxon cross in the tang area....

Any info is appreciated..
