Phil it looks like you had quite a trip to the big city. Glad you were able to bring back some treasure.

(Now I gotta check my grinder)

Well Scott another nice haul for you. I especially like the western lockback 531 (I think ). They are well made. Is that one in good condition? Would you consider a trade? Steve B.

Scott, that Remington (I think) fixed blade on the bottom, are those bone handles? That is a haul of great fixed blades.

Knives and souvenirs from the Black Hills trip. The stag is a Rock Creek, the ring turn is from Sheffield, the Finnish Puuko is unmarked and the Celluloid is a Sta-Sharp (Camillus for Sears in the 30's). The most expensive item was the brass buckle. I don't know why I bought the little rubber car but it was kind of neat and predates me by about 30 years. ____Dave

The wife and I went down to Spirit Lake Iowa yesterday to a big holiday weekend fleamarket. Lots of people there and lots of knives. I picked up a few for not too many bucks.
Prov. Cut. Co. Campmaster for a couple of bucks.

Robeson 833881 cattle knife for $2, this one has been too close to a heat source. Will rehandle it with something decent.

Voos swell end jack for a buck. Missing the front side handle, but the rear is the nice bone these are known for. I have a piece of Angus femur that might work.

Also picked up a couple of whittlers, a Miller Bros. and a OVB that I have posted on the Whittler page. We had a great time there, but a lot of walking!!!

Found these today from a fellow flipper girl who holds them until she sees me!!

Nice looking bunch of knives. I especially like the pre-1980 Buck 110. I have a real weakness for those.

Did a little trip out to B.C. a week ago and picked up a couple of things while in the Rockies.
Browning fixed blade and sheath.
Unmarked dagger.
Uncle Henry Schrade+
Case XX Metal Stamping
All need a little cleaning and oiling and we"ll see what is under the grime.

The "Unmarked Dagger" might be a Sheffield made Fairbarn Sykes dagger.

I have one of those MS Ltd. knives, but a spring's cracked (odd, as normally you'd think it would be cleanly broken), but it seems a common issue with those. They are a beast. Since it's in rough shape, I carry it when I need to work around ropes--and it's one of the few where a sheath is really necessary.

jerryd6818 · Post by **jerryd6818** » Wed Sep 05, 2018 8:06 pm

Cody is correct. The dagger is a WWII Fairbairn-Sykes 2nd pattern fighting knife with hand ground blade. It should have the broad arrow stamp on it somewhere (see below for standard locations) along with an inspectors number stamp.

doglegg · Post by **doglegg** » Wed Sep 05, 2018 8:18 pm

That includes some real finds. You had a fruitful trip.

patch1 · Post by **patch1** » Thu Sep 06, 2018 3:55 pm

I cannot find any marks on this knife. It is very dirty with rust spots and corrosion etc on the brass handle.
I'm not sure if I really want to attempt to clean this knife too much. Not knowing exactly what I'm doing with it could destroy any value.
I'll likely wait until I have a suggestion or two from someone who can tell me the proper procedure.
