From Knives of the North comes the Junki, not to be confused with the word junky.

The Junki is the smaller knife of the famous Helahoito set. This red Junki has a red lacquered curly birch handle, nickel silver ferrules, and a polished carbon steel blade. The blade is lightly inscribed with the Iisakki Järvenpää signature.
The sheath is nicely detailed with stamped and stained artwork, it contains a plastic liner to prevent the very sharp blade from slicing through, and it has a small snap-clasp to attach to your belt loop or purse.
I bought this for my sister's collection and suspect she will like the rich red lacquer work. It is 6" in length with a blade of 2.75 inches. Makes for a fine purse of desk knife.

What a day for me at the mailbox!

Jeez Marco, how big is your mailbox??

Here is the first one, cleaned the covers and flushed and oiled the joints. Then did the first of my experimental finishes on the covers, something i have been thinking about for a while. Very happy with the finish, went from okay, to really classy, look a lot better now.

Nice Cudgee Can I send some of mine to you for service?

[Quick Steel]

Thank you John and Marco. Three more came in to day but I will wait until tomorrow to post them.

Nice pick-up. That will get some pocket time to be sure.

Ha, good one Willie! As a-matter-of-fact, Canada Post just recently installed parcel boxes so when something arrives that won't fit in the regular box the mailperson leaves a numbered key in your box that will open the corresponding numbered parcel box, and doing this has solved 2 problems, the mailperson doesn't need to make contact due to covid, and I don't have to be inconvenienced by getting a delivery notice to go and pick-up my packages. It's a win-win! I'm not usually so fortunate regarding big hauls, but I had 2 parcels sitting in Customs that were released at the same time so I got them together. When I place any order with any seller I try to purchase more than 1 knife so as to save on shipping costs, so occasionally the number of pieces arriving is more than 1! Lucky me, huh?

P1040524 (2).JPGP1040525 (2).JPGThis is a Winchester 5 1/8" Coke Bottle with jigged Rogers Bone, 1990 Case Classic. [Made by Case]
Case did a very good job on this: half stops, good W&T, excellent fit&finish.

Gotta love those Barlows. That one is in great shape for sure.

[Quick Steel]

Thank you Papa.

From the little Wood Jewel shop in northern Finland comes a Leuku with an impressive Standing Bear engraving. OAL is 10 1/2". The high carbon steel blade is 5 1/2". Speaking of the blade, its sharpness has to be experienced to be believed. The knife has a fine heft to it tho it only weighs a bit over 6 oz.

[jmh58]

That’s a nice one Garry!!
John

[Sharpnshinyknives]

Both knives are beauties Garry. Love the engraving on the Leuku.

I seem to be in a Copperhead mood lately. Got in these 3.

[Quick Steel]

Always liking Copperheads and you have some beauties. The blue and white is exceptionally appealing.

[KLJ77]

Some great looking knives being shown.

Very nice pickups, Mark...those are purty.

Garry...that Leuku is awesome. I really like the bear engraving. Very spiffy.

Well just now started going through the knives that I brought home from my firearms buy last weekend, it takes time to clean and go through guns and grade them and prepare them for resale, so I got just a small amount of time to look at some of the knives I pulled from the gun safes from the buy…..

p197lssp, 1978 Shark tooth with box and sheath

1979 p158lssp Mako….new with box and sheath

1985 2159lssp, local coal mine advertising new with box and sheath

and maybe the coolest of all 1982 Sidewinder
All of these I think are going into my display cabinet

[Quick Steel]

Thank you. I like it a lot also, LJ.
