All About Pocket Knives

Good looking knives Joe

Thanks, Dimitri.
They sure look good sitting on my table.

Here's a very sweet little Robeson. 3 5/16".

Joe - you have some mighty fine old wharncliffes! Nice photography, too.

Thank you very much, Mel.
I put this knife in a Robeson thread too.

Here's a couple of Empires. 3 1/4".

Joe, WOW great looking pair of hard to find Empires Lloyd

Thank you, Lloyd.

Finally found the answer to your question, jerryd...

Thanks ~Q~. Customs official thought it was a switchblade, eh? Looks like they don't hire the brightest and the best. I wonder if he can speak English.

That thing is just plain dangerous!

Have you considered burning it? .................... With proper permits, of course ......................

Northfield 57 Hemlock bone

Ulster knife co.

Nice Ulster James ... nice looking jigged bone and classic wharncliffe style....

Here is a picture of a GEC Cuban 54 with 2 wharncliff blades and 2 sheepsfoot blades.

A couple more I picked up recently to add to my pile.

This is a 53 Cuban Castro. I like it but I like the slanted bolsters on your 54 better.
I did a little trade with Paul down in Tulsa OK (KnifeSlinger#81) and he generously sent along this CRKT 2385 Folts Mimimalist as a cherry on the top. Ain't it just the cutest little thing. It not only grabbed me, it grabbed my buddies too.

Those four-bladers remind me one sold years ago by (WESTERN?) called a dynamite knife, and was used by blasters, apparently. Anyhow, I see these wharncliffe blades as meretricious sheep hooves. A rose by any other name would smell as sweet? They are nice. Here is another one.

Nice knives all

Going to one of the oldies - Waterville Cutlery Co Conn - Engraved aluminum handles - closed length 3" ....
Will be posting this with the tang stamp in the Waterville thread too ....

Some beautiful knives being shown here, guys, but Lee, you know I like the old ones and that little Waterville is real special.
Congratulations on that one.

Hi Dale,
That is a very nice Wharnie you have there. It looks very similar to the one you sold me some time back. I love mine.
Tony.

Of all the knives I wish I had more of, a wharncliffe blade is the one. I only have one Remington, it's the worst condition knife I own with a replacement pen blade but one of my favorites.

Beautiful espn.

Here's a nice old Catt. 3 5/8"

Joe, espn77, very nice
