All About Pocket Knives

I got this one a couple of weeks ago so I thought I would show it.
It is an "Old Red Stockman 6207 SS"
I got it from an antique store. It has the box and all the paperwork.
Anyway..... here it is.....

I just went and found your thread. Interesting!
I see your was made in 2003..... Mine appears to be just one year newer according to the tang stamp.

Mike, yes, I noticed that too. Maybe that shield was used for a couple of years. Whatever the case (pardon the pun), you have a "special" knife there and treasure it. I certainly will treasure mine. The smallest of things bring people together.

Mike, I really like the old red pocket worn knives

That is a SWEET bunch of knives Redbone!!

I fell into this beauty through no skill of my own, just pure blind luck. Well, I did have enough sense to buy it.

That's pretty snazzy Truck! Does it have a pattern number on it?

Yes, it's an 82053 with CV blades, 1940-1964.

That is what I was thinking as far as model number. I have no books on me now but I cant recall if they made a shadow (like your knife with no bolsters) and a model with bolsters also. I think they did. Comments based on memory. Regardless, great little knife.

Thanks Jerry. Yes I think they made bolstered and shadow versions. Apparently the SS version is a little more common than this CV version. As I said, blind luck. I got it in a local pawn shop, and I'd be VERY unpopular with y'all if i told you what I paid for it.

You guys have been busy!

It' in Sargent's. Books for $150. Great find Truck!

Here's a nice little 42.
I will say I didn't quite know what a nice knife this was until I had it in hand.

Very nice with the bail Joe! That one would require a separate chain and pocket right next to your watch pocket on Sunday!

Thanks, Greg. And it could accompany it's compadre in LFP.

Nice one Joe. Congratulations. Great pattern in my opinion.

Case tested 63087

Very fine knife, can't find them nicer anyways.

Don't care much for smaller patterns, but here is another exception.

I will be collecting smaller rough black now since my collection is hitting a dead end hunting big fish, with hefty price tags

Nice one Zach.

Did you see the link I provided on other thread to the rare XX 63055?

I was going to wait until I got home to post pictures of my newest acquisition ,but that is taking longer than I expected, so here is my newest 6393 courtesy of my good friend and confidant Jerry Hawkins {Ralphalsip}

NICE GREG. YOU KNOW ITS GOOD IF ITS COMING FROM JERRY

Ain't that the truth Keith. No worries about a clunker coming from The Cattle Knife Ranch! Did you notice the steel liners on this and no shield? I think this may have been made at the beginning of WWll. A transition knife of sorts in to the XX era.

Greg,
