All About Pocket Knives

Stop Trace!!..its not too late for you yet..if you find an old ulster cattle knife, you will never be the same. ..besides, you really shouldn't subject your eyes to the hours of gazing at the peach seed or rogers bone handles.. ..while your mind tries to make sense of how a knife that is only 3-3/8in could have such weight and fit your pocket so comfortably.. ..Some are Schrade Cut Co or Camillus.. ..so you get the best of both worlds..their not very costly.. ..so with the words of good ole Pete Hogwallop, I will say..Do Not Seek The Treasure..

This one was well worth the wait. Arrived yesterday. Pictures this morning. I hope they don't put out any more this nice in 2019. I'm a'feared that would put me right on the road to ruin.

Jon, it's to late for me. This IKCO got me hooked.
Sorry for the crummy pics. Something in nicely jigged bone is next. My Camillus ones are going to be rehandled as whatever that black handle material is shriveled up.

Boys there's no use...once you start down the path to the dark side, their is no return...or something like that...
You said it jd...the call of the clicky ebay is too much to resist, even for the most strong. Me wallet is at any moment going to jump up out of me pocket to wack me upside the head. But even that may not be enough...what is a addict going to do...

Jp it looks the same for me, just tiny toothpicks have glazed my vision. Since getting my custom one in the mail the other day, has ruined me all over again...
Right now at this moment i have a tab open on ebay...you know where this is going...
And beautiful knives guys...especially those GEC's...
4 in 2 days... What is happening to us... Maybe i am rubbing off on you guys in some way...

Great hauls all!
That little Case is really sweet, sgilliatt!
Shoulda had my napkin ready to wipe off the drool

Thank you, Steve!

Boy are those bone handles beautiful on that little stockman sgilliatt.
I had been watching for a 72 with bone handles and as those old ones are hard to come by I settled on this little special edition.

Sweet score, doglegg!

Dangit Jerry you've got me on the hunt for 6254W trappers now...

That Wharncliffe blade is a sirens song isn't it.

I'm a big fan of the GEC 48 Improved but with my mitts I don't mind the extra 1/4" or so and I've always like the way a 54 feels in hand. It's big but not bulky, solid but not heavy, and that Wharnie opens up a whole world of uses and pairings the spey doesn't normally invite.

Thank you Sunknife.

QT that is a real beauty you have there. A show stopper if ever there was one.

Got this Bulldog Scagel Design fixed blade off ebay. I think it is 1990's and made in Japan.

All of yinz have been scoring some real fine picks!! Kudos ALL!!!

Had a good day. My first Bulldog. An A.G. Russell Wharncliffe whittler, a Schatt and Morgan ivory handled Wharncliffe whittler and a Rodgers Wharncliffe whittler. The last one was a bonus. Got them all from kj (Roland).
I’m smitten w/ this ivory handled one, it’s a handsome knife.

It's a fine knife day today.

Very nice pickups SSK. Love that last one 'Cutlers To His Majesty'.
