All About Pocket Knives

This showed up in today's mail.

Nice pick up, jerryd. I was watching that one (because I tend to watch every 07W I see out of habit)...Glad you won it. Between you, me and Lansky1 we might just corner the market on 07Ws yet!

It will fit right in Jerry.

I'm very pleased with it ~Q~. It turned out to be just as attractive in hand as in the seller's pictures.


You bet your britches Floyd. When the other two get here, I think I'll see if I can get a decent picture of that folder.

I managed to get down to the NCCA show on Sunday. I picked up quite a few decent (to me) pieces, and some good bargains also.

This WH Morley was in the junker bin A nice old Camillus EO Hammer Brand whittler in horn A John Watts Sheffield whittler This is obviously a newer Russell. It's a gasser, but will make a neat project at some point

More in next post...

Next, we have an AW Wadsworth... A nice old Schrade Walden 879 in bone An IXL Tyne brass handled knife. A well-loved Schrade Cutco with arched stamp And a neat old Holley
Last few next

Saved the best for last...

A nice old bone Hammer Brand A Schatt & Morgan And my $5 junk box Jackson Fremont O. The pile side pearl is not as nice, but I think this is a good find.

Great pick up's Glenn. That EO is especially sweet.

Awesome pick ups Glenn. I like the Schatt!!

What a nice bunch of HOKs, Glenn!
I got one in the mail yesterday from TripleF: It's got a few problems but still walks and talks, makes a good EDC.

The jigging is especially nice on that one!

Treefarmer, you got a sweet one there. Crack or no crack, that is a lovely old knife.

They said this was the first direct offering by Case of an exclusive knife. I think they picked a winner for their first knife. Buffalo Horn Handles on a two blade Barlow.

Mate, you definitely have a winner there, it is a beautiful knife. Congratulations on a great find.

I received this lightly used buck 307 today.

Nice pick up, I've been looking at them occasionally.
Is it the size of the 6375 or the Abilene?

Thanks. It's very similar to the 6375, much bigger than an abilene. It was made by camillus.

Nice one! I'm preparing to get a Buck for my birthday, which I've done for the past three years. Currently, it's a tie between a secondhand 307, a 112LT Slim, and a Lancer. And really hard deciding between the three. I've ruled out the Lancer right now, because the Bass Pro version is set up as a Whittler with three blades, and comes with a nice wooden box. New Graham's "Knife Day" annual event is coming up Saturday (one day after my birthday I might add), so I'm giving myself a headache figuring out what to buy--without burning through a whole lot of birthday cash.

Yesterday's mails call.

Lovely, Trace.

Paul & Trace

Nice picks!

Wednesday's mail call.

Beautiful knives everyone!

Thursday's trip to the post office produced these three pocket knives. Another Camillus 72, another Craftsman 9494 and another Imperial "Deer Head." They each received a gentle cleaning, except for the Imperial, which is flawless. The pictures are mine. Click on a picture to ENLARGE.

Fine looking knives everyone, Jerry I really like that smooth white bone mini trapper with the bomb shield!

Skip, those are some fine looking knives. Much better than the ratty old junk I buy (except for the Case Mini-Trappers and brand new GEC's ).

BTW, that Camillus 72 looks to have Brownstag® handles. If so, that would put it in to the mid/late '50s --- mid/late '60s. Great find in that condition.
