That yellow bone is an attention getter.... ::hmm:: I don't have a yellow in my collection yet, maybe I should do something about that :)

Here's what I got in the mail today, I've got to say, don't know anything about this Fox brand but it's a really nice solid knife!...very impressed.
The old Schrade Walden, and Western 442 for the most part fairly clean, just did some oiling to get them going
Fox knives are made in Italy and they make pretty nice knives. I just traded the one I had with Ryan but I really liked it! ::tu::

I like your Schrade & Western also. Nice finds! ::nod:: ::super_happy::
Thanks Tom ::handshake::
Hadn't seen one before, but the wood and etching caught my eye.
Do you have a picture of the one you traded... was it similar to this one?

Otherwise flawless and as it should be. If anyone wants to trade for a 35 Maher and Grosh Trapper that just came out I'm your huckleberry. PM me and lets dance.
I enjoyed seeing this, thanks for sharing! ::tu::

Today's mail was supposed to be good but... ::facepalm::

This seller tried to perpetrate a fraud at my expense. :x

I bid and won this knife>

...but was sent this imitation instead, complete with fake serialized engravings. Notice the font of 002, totally different from any engraved bulldog that I have in my collection and MOP? None of my mother of pearls have it.

This CJRB Talla showed up in today's mail. It's well made but I think it's a little overpriced for something out of China but I bought it anyway. I'm enamored with the blade profile. ::facepalm::

Sorry, but no I don't. If you could find the same model online you'd be abel to find out but that's like searching for a needle in a hay stack. I can add that Fox has been around for a while. The one I had, I bought over 20 years ago when I graduated from Carpenter school. ::tu:: Only Problem with it was that it was a one handed opener that I couldn't carry over here so I traded it with Ryan for an I*XL Barlow with Stag scales. ::super_happy:: It's been in my pocket the last 4 weeks. ::nod::

Most of the knives they make are single bladed. Lock Backs, Fixed blades, Tacticals ect. ::nod::

Off to work. ::doh:: "Time to make the Doughnuts." ::facepalm::

Wow KLJ those are amazing. Love the S&M’s
Here is what I have received over the last few days. All GEC 35’s. 4 Maher and Grosh and 2 Beer and Sausage knives. I think these Maher and Grosh 35’s are some of the best GEC has made, they are that good.

Nice group of knives, Mark. Never heard of those brands, but they're attractive. I like the B & S knives...use them to eat with, then comb out the beard or hair. ::tu::

Lots of wonderful mail receipts being shown. I really enjoy seeing what treasures and keepsakes others have invested in. ::tu::
