I would like to Kershaw offer again in PE

Looks like eBay has a couple of them up for bids.

Thanks Jerry
The one plain edge price is a bit high, plus looks like a seller from Europe

Pictures!

A little research shows the OD-1 is USA made and the OD-2 is an import. The good part? They also made the OD-1 in ORANGE.

Hey Jerry.. I am late here but THANKS for the info on the orange OD-1.. Will have to keep a look-out for it..

Scored a green/dlc Knock-out today..

Sorry.. No pics as I am a computer dope.. Dont know how to get pics from camera/phone to computer to here.. John

The easiest way for me is to send the picture on your phone as a picture message (text message) to your email address, then save it to your computer. Once it's on your computer it's a piece of cake to post it to AAPK. Holler back if you run into a snag.

Thank you.. Will try that once the wife gets home.. Hopefully I can get it figured out!! My daughter tried but gave up!! John

Well.. My latest pick-ups are an Orange handled Packrat Folder and got an OD Green handled LEEK on the way!! John

Are you still picture challenged, John?

I would have offered but people would have talked. Since Josh is from California, no one will think anything about it. No accusations here Josh. Just saying............

Hey after all the California kidding, I had to throw some back!

Once you've had a few days with it, please let us know what your thoughts are on it. If I remember correctly, that's your first Kershaw.

Sure will Jerry

This is my first and you gave it to me Thanks again

Here's a ZT 392. It's a Rick Hinderer design. He supplied the pivot, standoffs and screws. Check it out

need some help on these two, like what does the PG&E stand for and do they have any special value. The Indian Ford is new and I have the original grey and red box for. The little one with the sissors on it also has 3 red stones on the brass shield. Any info will be appreciated, thanks, Terry

The knives are longevity of employment awards. My guess is "Pacific Gas & Electric". Could be some other company but that's the most obvious to me. The one with three stones is probably 20 years? At least that's what three rubies was at NCR.

::tu::Jerry, thanks for the quick reply, that helps me out a lot. the previous owner was from Ca. so that makes sense. got any idea of age and value? Terry

JERRYD NAILED IT!

COOL KNIVES



PG&E = PACIFIC GAS & ELECTRIC
THAT IS THEIR LOGO ALSO

IT IS MY LOCAL GAS COMPANY I PAY MONTHLY HERE IN CENTRAL CALIF
ODDLY THEY DO NOT SUPPLY ELECTRICITY HERE....
SCE = SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON or locally known as just "EDISON" does electricity.

Dale (orvet) is more your go to guy for age and model of the Kershaws. Once you determine the model, an eBay search on sold knives of that model is your best bet for approximate value. At least, that's the way I'd do it. Good luck.
