KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY

[glennbad]

Picked up this 'un at a flea last weekend. Case/TB saddlehorn.
Not crazy about the blade configuration. But it pockets great, and that bone is plum purty

That clip blade does look awesome!

[royal0014]

It is stainless.

I like the the layout, with the secondary in front and both opening from the mark side.
But, I'm won't have much use for the funky up-swept skinner blade

Great looking finds!

I guess this qualifies as a knife/multi-tool. Fits right on your key ring and blends in with the surroundings. I'm sure it would give the TSA heartburn. Cap lifter, serrated & straight blade, flat & Phillips screwdriver, interesting design.

Neat John. And you have quite a bank statement!! I grin

Before they stopped searching you at the gate in addition to the security check point, a TSA agent took one like this from me in the Detroit Airport. The guy got so excited, I thought he was going to wet his pants. He had obviously seen one before because that monster one inch cutting edge was covered up by the leather. Idiot.

Stopped in at gunshop on my way to Greensboro on Wednesday, a real nice shop I get to about twice a year. They had found some old Buck knives from before their remodel a few years ago back in the storeroom - I bought these two. OH

Nice finds. That top 112 is kind of cool, I've never seen one of those before.

[garddogg56]

Gut a nice French Ivory today,Challenge /Cut co/ Bridgeport/Conn..What year do you think??

[gsmith7158]

Thanks Mike! I'm gonna give 'er a run today, see how she performs!!
According to the stamp it is. On the reverse tang it reads: PORTLAND, OR

Scott I just got a big Gerber lockback Portland OR. stamp with that same handle while I was in California at a little antique shop and that baby is sharp.I think that fixed blade will do everything you ask of it.

[FRJ]

Dogg, I believe I see "cutlery Co." on that pen. 1905 - 1928

[wlf]

Joe ,how is that date determined?

Scott, I felt pretty lucky to have run across these.
Ken, that is an elusive Buck Ecolite, the short lived successor to the Bucklite series - handles are "Paperstone". Interestingly the box label has Folding Hunter on it - a title that belongs to the Buck 110.

I sharpened mine with little effort - shaved the hairs on my arm, no trouble.
Made some fatwood shavings with 'er yesterday for the firepit!

Lyle, I copied the information from Goins' encyclopedia.

[garddogg56]

Thanx Joe At the gun show today I gut a Colonial Barlow two bucks

[FRJ]

Nice full blade on that one, Dogg.

[garddogg56]

Thanx Joe like new solid bolsters

This is some of the stuff I picked up at the Oregon Show-

I got three Schrade 165OTs and one 160OT-

A really nice LB-7-

A super clean Wards stockman. There was debate by some at the show as to who made it, Camillus, Winchester or Utica. I had collectors I respect greatly in all three camps.

The red bone Case XX 6392 is my new EDC

This pic is assorted knives I got at the show.
The red queen whittler was a gift from Charlie Campagna.

The knife below the Queen is a Robeson jack I am also EDCing. I need to take some better pics & post them for Charlie N. and see if the handle is gum fuddy. I have never seen a handle quite like that, it is a little soft but springs back. strange stuff!


Will post more later on here when I get back this afternoon. I will also post the knife that got me the most excited when I get back home.

Wow, Dale- What a candy store. This is the fifth year I did not feel able to go to the Oregon Show. Always something to interfere. Actually I have never been to a knife show, and the Oregon show, @ 1130 miles, is the closest one to my part of the world. This isolation is mostly a good thing, but not in that regard. Thanks for the preview!

[Old Hunter]

Nice haul Dale, lot's of nice knives. I love the look of those Schrade 165 hunting knives - going to have to pick up a used one some day to try on a deer. OH

WOW Dale Knice TRUCKLOAD of steel!

[gsmith7158]

Dale I posted that picture of the Camillus 67 that looks like your Ward's. Don't knw what happened to my comment.

[glennbad]

Just picked these up at an antique store. The first is a Camillus scout. A little pitting, but it's basically unused.

This Robeson TL-29 has a somewhat abused blade, but both snap like a gator.

This Camillus fixed blade is well used, but it's a got a great tang stamp and bone handles.

This is my favorite of the bunch, a great old Imperial.
