Very nice, Joe, keep them coming!

Ray, great show of some lovely old knives! As Joe said, there are some real beauties in there.

This is a display I put together many years ago for a local gun show. I made a few displays of some of my knives, hoping to find other people with the same interest, to no avail.

This is a fine display.
I especially like the Robeson and the NY knife.

Joe, Ray, Dan, some great knives guys, I'll try to dig up some of my better ones.

jerryd6818 · Post by **jerryd6818** » Tue Oct 13, 2020 4:28 pm

Ray got started and couldn't stop.

I'm surprised I hadn't seen this thread. The two blade Jack knife is one of my favorite patterns and there are some real spiffy ones here. If y'all don't mind, I'll add a few of my own. Since there are no English Jacks allowed (

), I'll start off with my medium jacks. (3¼" & 3-3/8")

jerryd6818 · Post by **jerryd6818** » Tue Oct 13, 2020 4:34 pm

And a couple more. There are several more but after a while they all start to look the same.
