All About Pocket Knives

Thanks! I love the color, looks to be an honest old knife, nowadays you can't find em mint, nor can you find them uncleaned, so hey.. This is a rare uncleaned 88 LP

Great looking red bone.

This arrived yesterday, 10207-SS. Just an 1/8" larger than the 6202 1/2 I EDC on work days. Plus it has a cap lifter!

Neat handles.

I want to like that knife. I really do. I want to like it so I can get one. I absolutely love the concept even though it's about 60 years or more past it's prime. No real need for cap lifters these days but I still really like the idea. I saved the link and now I hope I don't make up my mind to get one after they're all sold out.

Okay Jerry your talk about "after they're all sold out" pushed me over the edge and just ordered 2. One yellow delrin and one amber bone....... Thanks alot Pal..............LOL As if my two GEC caplifters weren't enough..............

Gee Don, thanks for depleting the inventory. Are you trying to make sure they run out so I don't have to make a decision?

Nope Jerry , SHC still shows yellow, amber , and Kirinite all availible.........not even showing low inventory, But
you know you just have to get some..........

Do you find it a little odd that the Kirinite is a bit higher priced than the bone?

I noticed the kirinite being higher, but can't really say right or wrong. It seems different than delrin, so may cost more to produce??? I have a hobo that is either corelon or kirinite and seems nicer than delrin......
Will have to some checking on others in kirinite compared to bone on the same pattern.

Ken very nice old knives! I like the gunstock whittler - is the pen blade also stamped? Looks like it might be a Bradford transition example with stamp on the nail file.

Thanks Jerry. I believe the knife is from very early Tested era, given that stamp on the file blade. The small pen has no stamp. No pattern number anywhere.

Don't see those often. I have a slick black 21-1/2. Very interesting pattern in my opinion.
Jerry

Jerry if you have a picture of it I'd love to see one. I haven't seen but a couple 21-1/2's before. I have two of them, both green bone. Well almost two. The other one is totally worn out with the master almost used up and the secondary broken off. The frame and handles are still there though.

Yes Sir. The 21 pattern is scarce just like the 28 pattern. I auctioned off my 28 for the WWP cause if I recall correctly. Still have the 21 and here is a not very good pic but the knife is a good one.
Take care my friend. Regards, Jerry

Real nice red bone Zach. Most of the bone that I have seen that color has been in XX USA era.

Thanks Jerry, that's a beauty. That 21 frame looks like it's begging for a wharncliffe master blade. Sargent's lists a 06221 with a wharncliffe and a 07221 with a spear. His price guidelines suggest both are real scarce. Being discontinued during the Tested era suggests it wasn't a popular seller, which is likely why we don't see any around nowadays.

Ken

Liked my yellow and amber caplifters so much when I received them today that I turned around and ordered one with the kirinite scales also............trying to deplete the supply so Jerryd won't have to buy any of them...... .......

Agree on likely reason as to being discontinued. Odd pattern as I said but cool in my opinion.
Thanks for the compliment on my knife and congrats again on your pickups. Regards, Jerry

W.R Case & Sons 6202 SH LP
Case Xx 40-64 (wood) rare maybe, usually see the wood in the 70's. Maybe this was in the transition
Case xx 40-65 medium toothpick, gorgeous jigging
Case classic 1 of 20 Pearl toe
Case classic 1 of 10 Pearl cheetah

A better look at the 6202 SH Lp, it's in rough shape, but I do enjoy this pattern. Proud to have a handful of these now

My Kirinite caplifter landed today. It's purrrrtee

My new bottle

Is this a mini copperhead frame, left handed version?

Tested nice pick-ups Yard sales yesterday I got a 1960's Whaler 1199 SH R Walnut scales

No John. Not to my knowlegde. Just a old, scarce and odd pattern.

Nice pickup dogg. Great pattern.

Great looking big coke Zach! I have a similar one.

Jerry

Mail call! Got the pleasure to deal with Jerry

Thanks for the excellent capped jack. I love it

If you got anything else to this caliber for sale shoot me a PM , love to take a look

Excellent testedxx. Jerry has got some sweet knives!

Glad you like it Zach. That is definitely one fine Tested era example. I knew you would love it. What do you think of these snaps at open, close and half stop? Plenty more nice oldies where that came from.

Greg my friend, thanks for the compliment.

Jerry
