Re: Matchng Pairs
Good info and appreciate it Ken. Love to hear stuff from those who know what I never even thought of yet. Thanks. Whole new view of this kind of thing now.

1982 8 dot lightening bolts.
I have matching numbers 1194.
However, I do not remember where or when I obtained them. Mid 80s I assume.
Anyone know how many were made

Re: Matchng Pairs
That's cool, there's another set on eBay right now but broken up. These were to, I had to win 2 auctions to get the set. I was told they were a SFO. But I don't know how many were made.Old Folder wrote:We have Matching "Matching Pairs" Kerryludwig26 wrote:Just got this matching number set of 61093 tooth picks.

Re: Matchng Pairs
Glad to see you were able to get both auctions and keep the matching numbers together. Otherwise they would never see each other again. 
Good job in preserving history.

Yes I hate when sets get busted up. I have a stag gator toothpick that lost its mate along the way and it is a shame.Old Folder wrote:Glad to see you were able to get both auctions and keep the matching numbers together. Otherwise they would never see each other again.

Both good looking knives. Curious, was the bail an option?

Re: Matchng Pairs
A bail was at one time an optional available on every pocket knife Case made. Older Case catalogs stated any knife could be ordered with a bail for an added cost, which was minimal. In Sargent's 7th edition there is a picture of a wonderful old Case retail,display cabinet from the Tested era, in which every knife on the display board has a bail.Quick Steel wrote:Both good looking knives.

Re: Matchng Pairs
Ha ha, thanks Q, that's funny. This pattern and blade is a beauty for sure, can't believe they don't do more 77 singles, and Wharns of course. Best looking Barlows I have ever seen. Rarely do I get two of anything, but this one I should have gotten 3. Great set of three you have on the other thread. And good investment, I see these going on the bay for about double what they were new. I know why.
