They're small luggage tags and I'm going to label them and attach them to the zipper on my knife folders. A good 75% of my knives are in the pictured knife folders. They're as handy as a pocket on a shirt and hold a lot of knives but they all look alike. No more unzipping them looking for that one particular knife (if I do a good job of labeling them). Obviously these came out of the far East and the cost is extremely low so they're worth a try. It's an experiment and hopefully it works out to my advantage.

I think I need to adopt that method. Sack-Ups rolls work OK, but do not fit hawkbills or rigging knives, both of which are quite numerous in my collection. And I really don't sort by brand or pattern that well.

Ask and ye shall receive. They just came today and I've installed a couple. In my opinion, they work just as I had anticipated.

Hello Tom,

Listing saying it's 3 1/4" long with blades closed.
Not sure what model this is, but I really liked the look of the scales.

I just purchased this wire handle trio. I don't really care about the fork. When I receive them, I'll give them the once over. I'll take some pictures and post them in the appropriate location(s). Here they are.

Picked up this little guy, don't know much about the brand name but the color of it jumped out to me and it's neat design markings. Seems like it's in decent shape too....
It was listed as a sleeve board knife, the cost was $12 and no brainer in my opinion.

Wow ... knice Queen ... congrats ... ::tu::

Pulled this Schrade out of the bay yesterday. Very surprised I didn't get sniped !
Fairly sure it is a delrin knife.
Can anyone narrow down the era of manufacture by the tang stamp ??
The research tab here shows 1953 - 1980 (open stock)

Royal, your Schrade 863 has Delrin handles and would be from the 1973-1980 era. I have one exactly like it, nice Carpenters Whittler. OH
