A couple from my hoard. An Imperial single-blade, and a Ric-Nor electrician/barlow.

One of my favorite EDC's, old KAB-BAR/UNION CUT.CO.
KA-BAR LOOM FIXER stamped into the (plastic?) handles. It'll get ridiculously sharp.

Makes my ticker skip a beat everytime it hits the bottom of my pocket.. .. .. :mrgreen:

There sure are some nice knives posted in this thread.

MRB: Your Sperry & Alexander reminds me a lot of the old H. Boker knives. That's probably why I like it. :D

dcgm4: The Bannister you posted is a rare pattern. I have one knife that is made like that and refer to it as a "sleeveboard congress." I can't find a sleeveboard congress pattern shown or named in any books and was just wondering if that's what the SB in your picture's listing stands for? I've attached a picture of the one I have for comparison.
Also, your C. Leonard has some outstanding bone!

Did Schrade Cut Co ever make a blade with a match striker long pull?

Touche'! I missed that feature the first time around. I have NEVER seen a S.C.C. with a matchstrike pull. Thanks for bringing me back to the scene. Who do you think made your knife?

Match this one up with the other one and I think you have a pair of Napanoch stock man or cattle knives made for good old Jack Knife Ben.

Neat thread Dimitri. Thanks for starting it.

Sheepfoot and Wharncliffe are two of my favorite blades. I have several of each but most of them are newer knives so they don't fit Dimitri's "old" criteria.

I think this Pal Cutlery fits the bill. Right now the knife falls into the POS category until I can figure out what to do with the sheepfoot blade to bring it back to life. It has the best patina of any knife I've ever seen.

I don't know how old the electrician's knife was that Dale modified to form this feller but I sure do like it.

Same goes for this Glennbad Special.

I'm really partial to this Ka-Bar Loom Fixer and wish I could afford a Case Loom Fixer.

I'm going to throw in this Buck 315 Riggers Knife along with a Schrade Yachtsman and hope I don't get chastised.

Two Barlows. A Prov Cut Co followed by a Ric-Nor

Sorry Dimitri. I know I've wandered into that gray no-mans-land between old and new but my excuse is, I really love the Sheepfoot and Wharncliffe blade.

Maybe I should start a new thread for new age knives with Sheepfoot blades (maybe include Wharncliffe?)

Those are great Cuz! But please, please, please.....I've seen what you have single handedly done to the Camillus 72 market. I need two more Case 6 dot loom fixers to complete my set. Hold off for just a bit, for family sake :mrgreen: .

I wouldn't worry about it too much if I were you. Those Case Loom Fixers are just a tiny bit out of my price range (or at least what I'm willing to spend). You're safe Cuz.
