Nope, I'm not gonna do it, as badly as I want to I wont comment on this photo!

My imagination ran wild and I came up with one snarky comment involving a euphemism for a cat.

Today, my morning trip to the post office produced this knife. It is an unbranded, "deer head" handle, single blade, 4 tools, scouting/camping style pocket knife. The tang stamp says "ROSTFREI." I know what it means. It needed very little cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Skip you have more dear head and wire jacks than anyone I know. I don’t know how you find so many in such great condition?
My trip to the mail box had this Browning Damascus Classic Fighter in it. 200 layer Damascus double edged blade w/ cocobolo wood handles . Designed by Master Hattori in Seki Japan. Made for Browning in the 1980’s and limited to only 1000 produced. More pics and information in the High End Japanese Knife Forum under “other Seki Made”.

Glad your new Hattori arrived Mark, you must be just in "Fixed Blade Heaven"! Very nice knife, enjoy it!

Ka-Bar 1109. Saw it on ebay and thought it would clean up nicely. I'm not disappointed! Cleaned some corrosion off of the bottom, but otherwise just needed some attention. I love a nice stockman, can't go wrong with steel, wood and brass. "Buckish". Nice snap to it. No idea what steel this is, but I'm sure it'll sharpen up well enough for some pocket duty.

A red one to add to my Buck 722 Spitfires. The color is really hard to get to come out in a picture, thus this cell phone picture on the book I'm reading. These are about the only lockbacks I give two hoots about. Very solid, sturdy knives.

Mark, I guess I'm just lucky.
As far as your Browning Damascus Fighter Knife is concerned, only one word can describe it, GORGEOUS.

VERY g@@d lking knives everyone.

This morning, my trip to the post office produced these two items. The first two pictures are of a promo picture card (7 3/4" x 10") of NASCAR driver Harry Gant, with statistics for the #33 Skoal Bandit car. SCHRADE (OLD TIMER) was one of the sponsors. It is in MINT condition. The last two pictures are of a CAMILLUS 72, 3 blade, short line, "whittler" pocket knife. It is in FANTASTIC shape. It required no cleaning at all. I took some pictures, here are the card and the knife.

lovely 72 you have there.

Great old 2nd generation 72 Skip. Sweet bones.

Thank you.

Finally. I was beginning to think they were coming to Illinois by way of Albuquerque. The SAK did make a side trip thru Buffalo Grove, IL. Just sight seeing I suppose.

The main blade has an odd lock release on it. Actually this is the first SAK I've ever seen with a locking main blade. Of course, I haven't seen a lot of SAK's, so.................. .
.
The Rough Rider Moose is a big ole Homer with half stops and great snap on both blades. .
.
I put the Viet Nam Moose up on my "love me" shelf.

Jerryd you'll be happy, my SAK's finally got here even though they were delivered to a neighbor
down the road. Even without looking at the address he knew who they belonged to.
The single blade "Swiss Army 1" I will probably carry for awhile.
The Old Forge is one I just like the look of it and I don't have any with the copper bolsters. I just
might order a couple of the other patterns in it just for the collection.

Ahh, Alox. Great choice David.

Very nice additions there Skip, Jerry, & David. I've got a bunch of catching up to do on posts. Due to Honey Doo's, Mama Doo's and Work on my property I've been away a few days. I have a few additions, just haven't got around to taking some pics. Again, really enjoy you guys photo's.

BTW Jerry, that is a very nice RR you showed and a very appropriate spot for it.

Thanks David.

LOL SKIP! I remember those Moon Pies, however it is many many moons ago since I had any. Great finds you got there my friend! I especially like that Camillus! That's a real beauty! Love to find one of those over here some day!

Now pay attention Buddy cause I have some catching up to do on the 9 knives I got this week.
