Thanks JP, I may have over spent on my knife allowance this month though....

Rest assured you're not the only one to do that.

That is a great haul Randy.

The mail brought me this cool little auto from Bulgaria today! It's 7 3/4" oal/SS dagger blade, SS bolsters, brass pins, faux wooden cover, coil-spring open/close, safety, and a HUGE pocket-clip that makes up the entire back handle. I removed the clip like I always do, but the knife felt out of proportion in my hand so I put it back on. One of VERY few knives that I left the P.C on. The only marking is "Minsheng" stamped on the front blade, so I'm gonna assume it's Chinese built. Opening was a bit sluggish, but after a drop of Q.R. oil it fires like a cannon! Just a fun little "click therapy" knife!

Beautiful 18, Trace!

Zippo self-advertiser with blade, nail file/screwdriver, and scissors. Decently built, but there is a stone burn on the backside of the blade.

Marked "ZIPPO STAINLESS USA". I thought most Zippo came out of the Case factory, but who knows with this one. The Cut About and Cut About Jr. did exist as Case patterns, and I know Case is still making their own version of the smaller Cut About.

I had meant to buy this one to use, but I'll get one of the many with some company name on it instead. This was a regular catalog item with the Zippo logo.

Good looking blue and green bone. Makes the shield go with it. Pretty piece. Congrats.

Beautiful wood Marco, slick looking dagger. How's the Bulgarian fit and finish and quality of their manufacturing?

[Dan In MI]

Not stag but I like it.

So do I!

I recently received these two Victorinox Bantams. One in Cellidor and the other in Alox, obviously. Neither was carried, and both still have their boxes. Guess I collect Bantams now!

Thanks Kerry! That grind is almost a bayonet style due to the swedge, but the dagger grind is my favorite.

Thanks Iman, but I'm afraid it's faux wood, probably some sort of plastic, although, it has a nice rich look to the color and grain, and due to the "Minsheng" stamped on the blade I have to assume it's Chinese built. The knife was likely purchased from China by someone in Bulgaria and then put it up for sale. Still a cool little auto though!

Huh. Looks pretty good in pics, fooled me anyway. Nice one.

Thanks buddy. It fooled me too when I saw the pics and couldn't make out the stamp. I foolishly assumed that if it was coming from Bulgaria it was Bulgarian built, but no such luck. It was inexpensive enough though to make the sting very minor.

Hey Randy, thanks! I would love to see your copy if you can find it! Mark!

This Kutmaster by Utica arrived at Starvation Plantation the other day:

Kutmaster Stockman 3 7/8" closed length

This one has the factory edges. A good solid knife I would carry without hesitation.

Does that minor sting mean it was made in China?
