All About Pocket Knives

I was wondering the same. Without seeing some ink on a blade or perhaps a darker pile slide bone slab, I'm not sure.

Maybe he's just assuming it was a display or sample because it's dead mint? Or because the mark side bone might be lighter than most (sun bleaching)?

Regardless, it's an outstanding 75 and it's got me green to the gills.

Looks like a display model

Very nice Zach. Why is it a display model?

Yes, the back side has no fade, and if you look closely you can see where the handles have mount lines where the knife would be tied down to a board

I didn't personally buy it off a board, really just an assumption I feel confident with. I don't think it roll sample or anything

Beautiful Case Moose - when I see pictures like that it just stirs up the collecting juices! OH

It is fun to find a older Case knife that you can see where the wire was tied in the display case. When the USA era knives came out the smart collectors purchased the old stock from the hardware stores. Not me.

Something about the long pull 75, always looking for more 2 & 3 blade models. If anyone has any for sale or trade please let me know, looking for near mint or better at the moment

Excellent ~Q~. Just excellent.

Me too, Greg...I used to have many more, but I had to sell them at a time when I desperately needed money. I don't usually have any "seller's remorse" with the knives I sell; however, of all the many knives I've sold, these Rattlers are among the very few I really wish I hadn't. (At least they were purchased by a fellow AAPK member, so I know they went to a good home.)

M100 cracked ice. 1905-1920. Let me know what ya think. I like it, I love it, I want some more of’em. If I am wrong on the pattern let me know. The back of the blade tang says Pat Apld For.

Great old knife Ed! That is a fairly rare stamp. Used mainly on M100 or the other frame 100 examples. I think your would be a P100.

I have a mint not cleaned M100 over here if you want to take a gander...

Thanks Jerry I will check it out as soon as I get home.

Cool knife Ed

Look closely at that stamp. People often assume XX (not anyone in particular) by glancing at it. The XX actually look like the old pirate crossbones if you ask me. Great find on a rare stamp.

Thanks Jerry for the information and showing your knife. Very nice.

One of my weird interests is small executive lockbacks. I have several from Buck, Case and few others. I just got this one in the mail today. The handles are a little scratched-up, which I have found is common for all stainless folders, but these are all users for me so I don't mind. It's a Case 059L from 2004.

This one came in the mail today. A pretty good 6275sp Moose

Awesome knife Greg

Greg, that one is almost as nice as the one you sent me. Very nice, my friend.
