Steve, have you turned into a CT (Case Tease)? Your devotees want to know your secret. Will it ever be revealed or do we just have to assume that it's 6 torpedo sinkers?

At this point there are only two possible explanations: Steve is either the cruelest, meanest, most sadistic knife torture master in the history of knife collecting, or else when he unwrapped the knives the shock at what he discovered sent him into immediate cardiac arrest and he's currently crumpled in a dead heap on the floor clutching some amazing, pristine, rare CASE knives in his rigor mortise clenched fists.
::suspense:: ::undecided:: :?

~Q~

EDIT: Of course I am just kidding. There's actually a third (and more likely) explanation, i.e., Steve has a wickedly twisted sense of humor and he enjoys winding us all up and whipping us into a frenzy of suspense. Bravo, Steve, Bravo! :lol:

I don't know if anyone else noticed, but the thread title says "boxes" (i.e., plural). Maybe Steve has been busy with even more treasure :)

There you go complicating things and just making it worse.

It just occurred to me, this thread is clearly about boxes...not the knives inside the boxes. I think the title makes that pretty clear.

So, in keeping with the (obvious) theme of the title of this thread...

The box tells us what is in there: six 3 3/4" 2 blade Barehead Jack knives with bone handles. You can see that they fit the box perfectly. Fishing lures would show some hooks.
I hope i win one for being correct (if i am).

I'm not buying it Steve - the knives in the picture with the open box were far too factory and uniformly wrapped to be the heap that your asking us to believe was in the box - I was born on a Tuesday just not last Tuesday.

I've already formed an image in my mind of what knives are wrapped-up so need to come clean for me, I already know what's behind door#2.

One thing I will say , if Steve has found a box of mint 6231's , What an amazing find that would be. The closest I have ever come is two mint examples wrapped in one of those old boxes. If anyone out there is willing to suppl7y 4 mint example to complete my box I would like to hear from you. ::tu::
