Wow, it seems not many guys have been posting and enjoying "Mail Call" knives for the last couple days! I guess I'm the only one who didn't make or keep a non-knife buying New Year's resolution! This gorgeous little gem was in my box this morning. A. Wright & Son/Sheffield Ltd 6 1/4" oal slip-joint with C70 carbon sheepsfoot blade and back spring, NS and brass hardware, and stag covers. If I still carried a knife this one would see a lot of pocket time! 8)WIN_20220304_09_42_56_Pro.jpgWIN_20220304_09_42_33_Pro.jpgWIN_20220304_09_46_36_Pro.jpg
Now, that is what I call, a fine workin' man's knife right there. Lovely stag on that boy, own him with pleasure brother.
Thanks a lot fellas! John, if you go to "Comfort Knives" in the "General Knife Discussion" forum and read the very first post by me at the top of page 1, I explain your question in detail. If by chance it doesn't answer your question just PM me and I'll explain!

That is a beautiful knife Marc. Love the detail on the backspring.

Got these 3 knives from one of our esteemed members today.
A Kershaw lockback; a Camco cap lifter; and a Camillus "Camp-glo" scout/utility knife

This is incredible David, just an hour ago I saw on ebay the same Kershaw lockback you've posted, and prior to that I'd not seen that model, and now I see it twice inside an hour! Must be an omen! LOL! Your picture is much better than the one on ebay so I get to see what the knife actually looks like. All 3 knives look great, nice haul!

Received these two as a set over the weekend. Fished them out of the bay. Made a offer on both and seller took it. The Top one is a 2011 Case 6207W Mini-Trapper with the Wharncliffe Blade. The handle is Sawcut Antique Bone. The second is a 2012 6207 Case Mini-Trapper with the smooth Chestnut Bone Handles with the Small Case shield with the Long Tail "C" Script "CASE XX". I will post more photos in the "Mini TrapPer Diem" thread.
