I like it just fine the way it is. You did well with that one, Skip!

Thank you JP.

Received this short line #9 today. Not a big fan of these but needed one for the short line collection. It’s a big old knife,well built with good snap and half stop . Its been cleaned, the blade and bolster anyway,but not overly buffed . The Blade well is full of polishing compound and lint,plus needs a good flushing and good oil,then it’ll get some Ren Wax and put away with the other shorties.
G dog, here you about missing out on one, the other night I blew the chance on a nice one. Good luck on the hunt

Good looking short line #9 JP Looks very clean ... especially compared to some of mine that is...

Very nice find JP. Looks good to me. Always nice to find a short line.

Not what I usually think of when I'm thinking of short lines but here is a short line hawk bill with plastic handles.

Very nice Floyd.

Thanks PB.

Yesterday, this pocket knife joined my collection. It's another CAMILLUS 72, 3 blade, swelled center, 3 5/8" closed, short line tang stamp, 1st generation, "whittler" pocket knife. It did not need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

On the way, my first timber scribe. It's a short line Camillus.

Heck of a way to start ! Very nice Cody Be careful of the Short line fever ,it’s catchy still .
Did you ever find a good short line TL - 29 ?

Thank you Floyd.

Here’s a few that have come home here .
#14 bone which is decent shape and a worn #33 . The 14 will stash away as it’s my first bone of that model and stamp . The old 33 will replace one of my bone EO s that I carry and will now put away . The TL 29 and little tipped bolster with bone are a couple of Camillus as well that just picked up .
Have a good one out there , enjoy your weekend.

Great group JP

Hey Thank you Floyd
Once in awhile a guy gets a keeper or 2 . Getting harder to find, as with the no liners .
Take care down there .

A new box to store some of my Short-Lines. And a few challenge coins....

Very nice JP! I have not had any luck finding any new Short-Lines lately. I found a box to put some of them in and that is about it...
