Hello to all. New to the site and it is GREAT. Already very impressed. My user handle is Petesknives but real name is Ken. My father passed away last November and I was given his and our collection. We both very much enjoyed all knives. He had a sweetspot for melon testers, and we both like
pocketknives with "fancy" plastic or celluloid handles. Have a collection of handmade knives made by R.J. Kegler who was a friend of my Dads, very nice pieces. Used to have an extensive library of reference books, but as he got back into his other love (50's Kustom cars) he gave them to my uncle. Makers vary from Case, Utica, Robeson, Primble ect. When I get this second hand scanner figgered out I will share with you all.

Welcome Ken (petesknives) good to have you here. You'll find that some of the most knowledgable collectors visit here. I've learned a lot from them in a short period of time. Ask questions if you need to know something and your opinions are always welcome. Also post pictures when you can.
