Jamie, many thanks to you Sir!!

Well Tony out did more than he should have, he sent me a Crossroads Care Package that is truly outstanding. When I sent him a package of items in the box I wrote here are some what I think you will find interesting, You can send me back something interesting.. not money but just things that have feel good to them. Before he received his package, I mention to him it kinda felt like selling your soul at the crossroads, not knowing what if anything would return. But he did put a huge smile on my face.... With three brand new Rosecraft Knives and a Seki Japan lockback. The other surprise was I mentioned that I would like a small piece of black leather for knives photos as back grounds. I think he sent me half a steer size piece.... What a great way to trade on knives and other items. All started from a PM saying would you be willing to sell XXXXXXXXX knife. I followed that PM by saying give me a mailing address. Tony I very much appreciate your fine gesture.

It looks great, Dave, you have some fine skills! My first quality auto knife has Bocote covers and I've always liked the way it looks.
Could you please show pictures of how the locking system works, I believe it has something to do with the little tab on the spine beside the bolster, but I could be way off. Thx!

What a fine score, Jamie, that Tony is one cool dude and he's friendly, almost as cool and friendly as you!
Congratulations to both you guys, you had a mutually satisfying "BOMB" raid, direct hits!

Much thanks, Dave, it's pretty much what I thought, but wanted to be sure.
That's a cool and uncommon blade release system, and I'm sure very secure.

The lock is the same as any other but, the release is achieved with the thumb one handed. The release tab kinda flops around. Its ok for a gentleman's knife but, it might get aggravating in the field. It is a cool locking system regardless.

Yes sir, I totally agree!

This little A Wright & Sons arrived in my mail box recently. A very well made knife. Action A little gritty but oil smoothed it out. Purchased from our own James & Co store.

Posted: **Tue Mar 19, 2024 5:53 pm**

Nice pick up, Floyd. I have several knives from J&Co and love them all. Great place to deal with; fair prices for decent knives and the excellent packaging is that extra little detail that makes buying a new knife a pleasurable experience.

Thanks Q, I agree.

Thanks Ken.

Nothing too fancy here today, just another Queen #51 Mini-T to add to Mini-T Mountain. This one has Carved Stag Bone covers but not the amber kind I'm more fond of.

That's a pretty one, Q but it ain't as pretty as the S&M I was bombed with some time ago!
Thanks again!

Oh, I agree 100% Philip, I can't think of too many Mini-Ts that can hold a candle to that 1991 S&M Keystone Series 1, no siree.

And, BTW, by my reckoning that was not at all "above your pay grade"...a more worthy and deserving recipient I'd be hard pressed to find.

What a handsome knife! The AW&S can be hit or miss for sure, but when you get a good one....

Thanks CCC and Glenn.

I received this rather odd and unusual Boker Magnum Series linerlock awhile back but I'm just getting around to posting it now!
It's 8 3/4" open and displays a 440 SS dagger blade with dual-studs, NS hardware, and black G-10 covers. All screw construction.
This knife reminds me of the Viper "Key" model!

It's a pretty fine knife!
