[Ivoryman]

Edward K Tryon Co, Philadelphia PA. Don't know age, think it's pre 1960s by the bones. Reminds me of a GEC 15 or 77 Yankee jack. Feels heavy duty solid, strong spring, great snap and action, the walk and talk are excellent, looks like full blades and love the caramel/butterscotch colors in the bone, will be in the pocket for the foreseeable future.3 7/16 closed, 6' open.

I-man, that's a nice one.

[rangerbluedog]

I've had the Applegate-Fairbairn for a while, but the H. Boker & Co. Mark 1 is new (to me).

[sunknife]

Very nice pick-up Ivoryman, love the jigging pattern and bone color on that one.

Yep.. What he said X 2 !!!! John

[jerryd6818]

Very nice. Judging from that rat-tail bolster, I'd guess pre-1930.

wow, I man that is definitely not worthy to be in your pocket and even your collection. I'll go ahead and take it off your hands .
Seriously, that looks to me what collecting is all about. Sweet find.

[Ivoryman]

Thank you all for the nice comments. J1890, the beauty of old used ones is you can use them a bit and not even see the difference. Love that.

Judging by the bolsters and the stamp I believe that is significantly older than the '60s. The color of the bones is outstanding! That is a beautiful jack!

Here's a Cold Steel Twist Master I got recently. These are nice knives. 6 inches closed.

A normal picture and a drama picture and picture with a clip blade companion I got from 313Mike a few years back.

Thanks for looking.

[Quick Steel]

Very handsome photos Joe; they nicely emphasize the knives' clean lines.

[jerryd6818]

Joe, those puppies are huge but then I don't have to tell you that.

[FRJ]

Quick Steel and Jerry, thank you for the comments.

Cattaraugus Little Valley NY bone scales (bottom pic)
Albacete locking knife
ITALY Stiletto horn scales (top)

[Quick Steel]

Scott, I find that Albacete knife interesting. Spanish in origin? And what is the handle material please.

[treefarmer]

Got this interesting 6207 SP SSP in the mail today, it is one of Scott's finds. Great condition, I believe it still has the factory edge on the blades. it's a 1985 with Mini-Trapper etch on the clip blade.

Edit: I'm getting a notice that "The attachment feature has been disabled", hoping this will clear up as Bryan is doing some work on the site. I tried to post some pictures of the handles of the above mentioned knife and then noticed what is showing here. ::shrug:
Back in business!

Nice little Catt, Scott.

Here's a B. T. Co. New Haven. 2 5/8".

Postal person left this thang.

[gwelker62]

Sup guys! Hadn't been on in a while. Been busy on the home and work front, but still been collecting a knife here and there. These two came in this week.

Both were still sealed up. Took the 34OT out w/o too much damage to the packaging. Worried about outgassing of the packaging and corrosion setting in. There was some on the back, but that cleaned up nicely.

This one is still sealed up. Debating on how to cut the packaging, or not at all. This clamshell is sealed, but still feel like the knife needs a good oil down to preserve it.

After a real dry spell of finding knives I stop at a yard sale on the way home from flame painting a 49 Ford coupe this morning and find these three. They had more;including a Rizzuto stiletto that the swing guard was missing and the spring was broken(I passed on it).
The Frontier folding hunter is an Imperial model 4622 and the handles are some strange kind of plastic(see query in the Q&A forum) but the blades are full;albeit a little dingy but I think they will polish out.
The Uncle Henry pruner is something I have never seen before.Really nice shape.
The trapper is made by a company called Steel Warrior. I haven't researched it yet but if it is a Pacific Rim knife it is very well made.Nice shape except for a couple cracks in the jigged bone handles around the back spring rivet on the pile side.
Prices were good: $10 each for the Schrade and the Imperial and $5 for the Steel Warrior.

[TripleF]

These arrived yesterday

[hk1123]

k7k - Steel Warrior is currently a Frost name and the sole experience I had with two Pakistani made models was enough to say that yours must likely not be from than part of the current line up lol.
