Thanks for the vote of confidence Willie and Garry.

Lately I find myself gravitating toward more traditional style knives, so it won't be long before I'm an old hand at following them.
I doubt I will ever completely abandon BIG and UNUSUAL though!

No reason to abandon anything, Marco. It's all good.

That's a looker! Hope it turns up soon.

I found one of those myself, but haven't pulled the trigger on it yet. I understand why you had to have that "rifle." You may never see another!

A great addition to my collection of USA made knives with a patriotic or Americana theme

2007 July 4th Russlock

That's a real beauty there! I like that both sides are fancy!

Most Case knives will only have fancy stuff on one side while the opposite handle is left plain. Which I find somewhat of a dissapointment. Yours on the other hand

is beautiful on both sides. Very nice find!

Two sweet additions Eric!

That Canoe is something else! Awesome stag and beautiful bolsters!

I hope you find it real soon Buddy.

Looking for missplaced knives is nerve racking.

I lost a little Schrade knife once. Looked for it everywhere but couldn't find it.

Few days latter it showed up. It was on a flatbed modle train car driving around the Christmas Tree. Forgot I put on there.

Very interesting find Brent!

Congrats!

Single knife blade, unmarked, with a handle shaped like a rifle. Inside the rifle barrel are both a mechanical pencil (though darned if I know how to refill it--and I don't want to break anything trying!) and a fountain pen nib!

The only marking is the fancy script on the pearl, which *might* read "Lourdes", or maybe "Ipardes", or (probably) something else.

Anyway, I wanted to share this little gem with all of you!

Wow Brent, that is so very beautiful and unique! I wonder if it is a type of commemorative piece, or a custom? It definitely looks old, and of top-shelf quality.
I hope to find out more as others chime in!

Mail on a Sunday! Picked up this Schrade Electrician for sentimental reasons and it’s pretty rough functionally but sure nice to look at.

Got this one off eBay last year and decide to send it off to get the blade repaired and just got it back. It looks great and though not all original it’s a nice piece.

I like it.

Thanks! My first electrician pattern but not going to be my last. Thinking of looking for a user and starting to research what a good one would be. Have seen some more recent Case versions that are appealing.

The Camillus 27 is a good one. They are built like tanks, a lot of them are still around, and prices are sane for the most part (last I checked, anyway). Also search for "Channellock Knife" and "Xcelite Knife" if you decide to hunt for a 27.

You are very welcome! An older "family portrait" of mine can be seen here (I've added the Channellock blue since then).

That’s a great bunch there … I may be in trouble

How old is your Case? Interesting shape on that lock tab.

That's one of my grail knives.

Got this finally in the mail, since it has been going back and forth from the east coast to the west coast a couple of times, till it decided to stop in Kentucky. I am in the middle of a move and will touch it up when I get me shop up and running. It has a little bit of glue on two blades or it's a booger.

Sword & Shield made in Germany I picked it up for a song or I might say a booger

it is in great shape and all blades have a great snap

That I am gonna back to see
Nobody else could miss GEC,
Not half as much as me
I cried so when I left it,
It like to broke my heart
And if I ever find it
We never more will part

Damn dog, I hope you find it, check by the bottle of Everclear
