All About Pocket Knives

I like that Camillus whittler too. Nice Tryons Ivoryman. I would be afraid to carry them though.

Today a pair of Camillus: my #4 and an old rope/knife. The rope knife is STAMPED 1944. Also marked USCG "U.S. Coast Guard"

A very good-looking knife! Since I can't quite tell, what are the covers made of?

Thank you WW and LD64.

Sorry Dan, they are pearl.

They look to have a touch of silver in them, or is that a trick of the camera and/or lighting?

Must be a trick of the camera. The pearl is actually translucent, and very nice on that particular knife, but it's my phone picture taking that's not worth a dime!

Sounds like my phone, which doesn't like to focus on tang stamps, especially when I'm shooting a video.

And again, a very nice knife!

Here is the Winchester with another Winchester pen. Not much better probably. Both old Winchester pens.

Can see why, that's a beauty for sure. Nice pair.

I agree, and thanks for the additional pictures!

Just for fun, here's a picture of almost every knife and multi-tool I've carried (even if only briefly) and still own.
Top row: HK tanto flipper, Leatherman Rebar, Victorinox SwissChamp, Victorinox Huntsman, Victorinox Fieldmaster with Wounded Warrior Project logo
Middle row: two Victorinox Campers, Victorinox Hiker, Victorinox Super Tinker, three Victorinox Classic SDs, Victorinox Rally
Bottom row: Victorinox Rambler, Victorinox MiniChamp I, Schrade SCHF50, Cold Steel Super Edge, Gerber Dime, Case Peanut
Not shown: an additional Classic SD, box-cutters, and a $0.99 POS purchased at an auto parts store.

I'm currently carrying the Huntsman and Peanut, and a Case Copperlock will join this group soon.

My Ka-bar Boot knife, a Ganzo, and a Gerber Multi tool.

Jeffin bones today. Two of my favorite Schrades courtesy of Jeffinn's fine work. One stainless, one carbon steel. And anyone know what happened to him? I don't see posts anymore, I can't find his selling page for Second Life Knives, and there doesn't appear to be any more of his Schrades around the AAPK stores. Big bummer, I had my eye on another wormgroove bone Schrade he had before his page disappeared. Now it looks like a pipe dream, not happening. If you're out there Jeffinn, please let us know what happened to all the fine knives you've modded. Best to ya and hope all is well.

I've got several knives Jeff had his hands on & I believe some of your posts influenced me to give him a try. I recommended Jeff to a friend who had a similar experience but something has changed. He said the last time he tried to contact Jeff, which was several weeks ago, that he got a response "...from his email that didn't sound like him. Said he was done..." without elaborating. I am sorry to hear that. I wish I knew more.

Schrade 8OT Senior Stockman which has had blades & handles replaced by Jeff Finnamore & Queen #20CZ Toothpick with D2 & African curly zebrawood.

Great looking 8 OT, another Jeffinn home run.
#%@&*$%^!! that makes me want to cry. He still had so much to give. What a drag, that makes me sick and miss him so much already. The best things in life are done too soon. Thanks for the info, appreciate your help even though it disgusts and depresses me. Thanks again.
