All About Pocket Knives

I like `em

NICE!

I posted this one before, but finally made it down to Ft. Smith to get it picked up and thought i'd post a few pics that I took after getting it home. It's in awfully good condition and still has quite a bit of the original factory finish still showin' through. It's been used, but not much.
I know oiling the blades is a neccessity, but in this case the oil's caused a stain at both main pivots on the front slab. Oddly enough, no staining at all on the back slab. I guess you could consider the staining as being part of the patina, but I kinda wish it wasn't there. Anyone know of a way to get it out without doing any damage to the ivory? I really like the amber color it's taken on over the years.

WB,
Very cool knife, definitely worth seeing again.

Thanks farside! Up above, you put on a darn nice show yourself!!

The oil stain will slowly go away as the oil evaporates. Don't ask how I know.

This was just recently listed on Ebay with a $2000.00 price tag. He got one offer, no bids. It did not sell.

He listed it as a "taxidermy" or "cadaver" knife.

Looks horticultural to me.

He stated length as 5", but I think he included the spud in that.

Anybody from the NorthEast familiar with Warren's Museum?

This is an unusual one............

I found this 25 years ago in my first home, while I was renovating. I like to think it may have been used by an old wine maker, in a vineyard, in Italy. I guess when you don't know the story, you can make one up.

Here is a few knives I have pick up.The hawkbills have different tang stamp,Schrade 190 and Geo Wostenholm belonged to my late father inlaw.

Charlie, I was watching that knife when it was listed on ebay too. I would love to own it but the price is crazy. I have not looked into the museum but when I get a chance I will. Have a great holiday all. Mike

Bonehead, I have a similar knife by Robeson and the spud is made from bone.

Expanding the pics on the Warren knife leads me to believe that spud is bone, as well.

Mike, I thought that was a fascinating knife, but not at that kind of price.

Some stag handle ones............

Outstanding old stag, thanks for showing them.

Yup, +1. Real sweet knives Dimitri!!!

Thanks Jim & Jerry

A couple I recently picked up...can't read the tang on the 'say it with flowers', the other is a SAK grafting knife...looks like its a few years old.

Those capped big stag pruners "stand" on their own MB,nice. The capped ones are really nice.

Those pruner blades and bark splitters get me going 41x and Lawerence.

I hope to get a couple farmer jacks with those bark splitters.Someday, Lord willing.

I guess if you had everything,you would still want more. My kinda knives guys.

Here is a Kutmaster grafting knife. I have no idea how old it is, but it is a really nice knife.

I like it..

Some nice looking knives posted here lately

This one is my latest..............

Nice Catt MB, I love how it has such a good tip on it. Your collection of stag handles is really something to see, its amazing there are so many shades of orange/yellow/brown represented there.
Knifegirl, that grafting knife is really nice. The edge on that razor blade looks just about perfect.
