Had a good trade meeting today. I let a couple good ones go but I got new traders. 6275 was broke but I reshaped the tip

What a great haul, Case XX 6383! Looks like you got a Crimson Bone Seahorse too!

Beautiful knives everyone! I pulled this Cold Steel mini wharncliffe out of the mailbox yesterday.. going to carry it today..hair popping sharp and tight as a snare drum...

Love to find NOS knives. Picked this up the other day. A 2014 6355WH, at a great deal. My Seahorse Whittler collection is growing!IMG_1504 (2).JPG

Beautiful find! Congrats Buddy!

The blade looks like it's half as long as the handles when opened but looks equally long when closed. Looks like a real nice knife! Just has me scratching my head.

I also received today a "grab bag" type lot with several knives, the most interesting of which is this old Utica. It had some rust, but not deep into the blades. In fact, the blades both have the factory edge on them, and the secondary is still quite sharp. Very nice feel to the knife.

In the same box was an older Boker (only marked BOKER on the mark side and having the tree logo on the pile side of the main blade; nothing on the secondary) and this Tole 10 lockback. I had never seen nor heard of the brand; it's apparently a Spanish company, though the knife is new enough I can't say whether it's actually made there or imported. It's pretty, though, and seems well made.

there was also a Richards (Sheffield) pen knife, a cute little Kutmaster small stockman, and a couple of Victorinox knives for fun.

Nice grab bag of knives! Utica & Boker are really nice looking knives!

This came in today. Another addition to my Camillus 72 Clone family. It is a Olsen Knife Company 3-5/8" Carpenters Whittler made in Solingen Germany. In the Olsen Catalogs it was listed as a No.13 Carpenters Knife. It has bone handles, nickle silver bolsters, brass liners, steel pins, and a Federal Style shield. This one was really dirty inside and blades were stiff. I did some cleanup on it, and a warm oil bath. Blades have great snap, no wobble, but do have some pitting, stains, and spiders. The secondary clip blade is missing the tip. From my research, in the early 1960's Olsen outsourced some of it's knives from Solingen Germany. These had the bone handles and federal shield up to 1970. After that they were outsourced from Camillus and they had a silver line and a gold shield line that had the oval shield with Olsen Ok stamped on it, and the Olsen Ok tang stamp. So this dates this knife from the 1960's no later than 1970.

Nice find! Too bad one tip is broken off. You gonna reshape it or leave it?

Thanks Tom. I will probably reshape it, then put some Flitz on the blades to shine them up a bit. I don't know if you remember the old Ulster 63 I found with the broken tips of the blades that I cleaned up, but it turned out looking pretty good, and the secondary clip blade didn't look much different on profile. The thread is here .... about the middle of the thread. viewtopic.php?f=63&t=62956&start=750

That knife is too cool for words Ryan! Looks like a real workhorse! And since it's a Cold Steel product you can be sure it's oozing quality! Use it well! Mark!

Nice looking oldies, Doglegg, with lots of life remains.

Ryan...I just ordered the 6" CS Tuff Lite. Should be here tomorrow. I wanted the larger version and will change my 112 out for this one. Bob piqued my interest in this one. I went with the blue also.

Yes Sir. It was an Emergency Life Raft Fishing knife. The blade is very thin as is the lock. Thanks.
