All About Pocket Knives

Sounds great to me. I love the old knives.

I love the Idea but what are you calling vintage? Pre 1970? if so I am in. I do not own any knives dated past about 1960.well I own one and it was my grandfathers so I will be keeping that one you understand

Count me in for a vintage roundtable with a $75 limit! Seems vintage should be pre-1960s when knives weren't made with the collector in mind !

Received my new knife from Olcut a couple days ago. Just now got some pictures. I love the bright orange with black laser etch . Great knife. Thanks Olcut! OCC folks are cool too

I'm up for anything for the next round table (vintage or otherwise is fine by me)

Well, here are the pics I promised. I finally got a light box for taking knife pics. I think it is better than my old scratched scanner!

Knife Nut got a perfect hit for me by sending me a knife that is my favorite brand (Schrade) and an old one to boot! It is a TL-29, which is my favorite pattern to collect.
Double play on that one!
This TL-29 has the fullest blade of any of the now 4 Schrade Cut Co TL-29s in my collection. I don’t think this knife has ever been sharpened.

I think Knife Nut is an over achiever as he also sent an awesome Remington lobster (R7094) and a Case knife opener! He said he had replaced the pearl on the back side, buy I would never have known. He did an outstanding job!

It was like Christmas at my house when the mailman arrived!
Thanks Mark, you made my whole month!

Knife Nut seems to have a very nice collection of those Knife openers!!!!!!...anyone that has not seen it should see the posting on here by Peterforce on the REAI knife openers. You will see some of Knife Nut's collection there.

Maybe someone can help Knife Nut find that Cattaraugus opener to complete his collection.

Great Knives everyone, This has been a lot of fun watching to see the different knives passed around so I'm in for the next.

There sure are some generous people out there! Multiple knives, knife openers, minty old TL-29s My goodness!!

Gunsmoke has sent me this wonderful NOS Swell Center Schrade 863. Swell centers are a favorite of mine, so this one rings my bell! Old store stock, in the original box!!
Thanks Smoke!!

Very Nice Folks here sure are generous!

I got my knife. Ive been drooling over some of the rehandle jobs that I have been seeing that our own MM does, when lo an behold what should pop up in my mailbox but a Case 1974 stockman with Desert Ironwood scales. Please excuse any lint in the picture, I am afraid that this one evicted my current EDC the day it showed up! SWEET KNIFE! Thanks Charlie!

I GOT THREE KNIVES!!!!!!!!!! YEP 3333333! two nice little case peanuts and a little bone case butterbean!!!!!! Thanks Peterforce!!!!!! I will get pictures up pretty soon!!! Ive been working 7 days a week, 12 hours a day for about 5 weeks now and i'm going nowhere but to bed!!!! I'd really like to get into a vintage knife roundtable too. Thats what i collect anyway. Glad you liked the peachseed schrade walden jack Smiling-Knife, it was my sunday- church knife for several years.

Tank sent this very nice 62021/2 Case Also found a possible long lost relative as he has the same last name as my Mother..

Very NICE

Muskrat Man or Yerout,

I noticed that Case Muskrat has a serrated blade, is that from the factory or was that done after market?

Never seen that before.

I asked MM the samething he wrote "that is factory, they made a limited run with a serrated blade they made a limited run in red bone and a run in green bone as well" Interesting grind.

Thank you Lenny

IMO it's a nice touch for a muskrat!

They also made one in Rosewood with the serrated blade

the serrated muskrat should be a standard. adds more use!

beautiful knife. every knife i have seen has been beautiful.

I AM DEFINETLY DOWN FOR A PRE-whatever era. like a 1970 or before type roundtable.

but in that kind of trading folks would have to understand that ones mans trash is anothers treasure.

so i guess for an older knife roundtable ruless like rust free and things like that would have to be set.

unless you prefer rust. i have seen some of you guys take a pile of rust and make it work again!

Recieved my roundtable prize from Orvet the other day, So I made time today to take some pics to post but the pics dont do justice to this beauty, Dale this one goes in the forever keeper section, you are way to kind, Thank You for this Beauty !!

Yerout,
I am glad you like it.
I will tell you a bit about the background of the knife.
It was originally a Colonial fish knife with a shell handle. I liked the shape of the knife, but didn’t like the shell handle. I figured that I could make a frame & bolsters for it. So I kept the blade & back spring and built everything else with a file & belt sander. I used much heavier brass for the liners to make it heavy-duty. I was pleased with the results.
BTW, the handles are snake wood.

Enjoy it,
Dale
