Help Needed

I’m sorry he didn’t teach me more about all of them. He was tired in his last years though and had lost the spark for knives.

I’m finding all sorts of gems I never knew existed.

Your daddy had a good eye for knives.Barnsley Brothers were in Monet Mo.and pass the exit off I44 for Monet going and coming from Tulsa.

I finally got time to sort these. These are all Miller Bros. The display case (an original MB glass display case) knives are then laid out on a towel. I stuffed the two other rolls. So, the towel, and the rolls, represent 125 MB pieces if my count was right.

Wow!!!

I'm at a bit of an impasse. I spoke with Bernard Levine and he agreed to appraise the collection. I was then going to email him, but the email on his website is broken and he's not answering the phone. I even hit the PayPal button for a single knife appraisal as a means to communicate, but it didn't direct me anywhere after I paid. I need at least a ballpark idea of valuation before I can entertain offers from collectors or dealers. Who is the next best to Levine? I emailed a couple of people dredged up on a Google search, but crickets.

Thus far I'm only through MB and Barnsley Bros. As previously mentioned, there are 125 MB. There are 44 Barnsley Bros. knives and 16 razors.

Got in touch with Levine. We're strategizing a way forward.

MB, BB, and Case are gone, but there are plenty of interesting things left. Message me if you're interested in any of them. I'm heading back home in less than a week. No original Richtig sheaths (I think). The hunter has a sheath and it looks like the ones I've seen for the aluminum knives in the article linked below. The Marbles are all vintage except the one far right. Thanks everyone for all of your help! https://clarksonhistory.wordpress.com/2 ... tig-knife/

Wow, yes, great collection. It might take some effort and diligence but do your papa proud, this was obviously a passion of his. Thanks for sharing.
