All About Pocket Knives

Thanks Draac,

They sit in my display and draw quite a bit of attention when guests come over ..... I usually get, " So, why do you collect these ? "

I just tell people I like sharp objects, LOL.

Very very nice Dean


Let`s see some more

Hi all, I've only got one, it's a Wade & Butcher's. Doesn't have country on it only the '' bow'' stamped on it. Boy. just love some of the pic's sent in, cheers Gary.

Here is another old one to keep this thread going...............

Draac,

Yes, they are very hard to find

This is the only Razor I have ever owned with the nude photos

I picked up a couple of razors the other day. The top one is stamped, "H. Boker& Co." The blade is stamped, "PEARL". The tangs are genuine mother of pearl. needs to have the handle repaired. a piece is mising at the pivot point. Other than that it's a beauty. Original box. Handle has a Boker tree stamped in it.
The bottom one is stamped, "Norvell Shapleigh HDWE Co./ St. Louis on the front of the tang. Stamped "Germany" on the back. The length of the front handle is some sort of a wading bird. No cracks. Great shape. Original box.
I like these old razors but I don't get very msny of them.
..CCBill...

I like them old patterned scales too.
They were on thebay weren't they, thought about chucking a dollar at them but got too many irons in the fire now.
Good pickup CCBill,,


cheers Gary.

Bill,

I like that Shapleigh

What will you swap me for it?...

Very nice, you did well

Draac;
Very Nice, indeed.

I spoke with and traded with a seller/collector of straight razors at the Dalton, Georgia NKCA knife show this past Spring.

He had a display case of razors from many different manufacturers, but they all had multi-color handles like that HSB and several of them had nudes depicted on the handles. He was asking big bucks for the razors in that case, upwards of $400.00 on some.

Not saying your HSB qualifies for that kind of value, but I'd say you need to find out.
