Actually Taiwan.....I wish they were made in Japan.

Neat lookin' knife Johnie. Unique to say the least.

Here's another oldie I picked up......"The Ideal".

Thanks Charlie. ....that’s a nice little Jack ya got there. ...whats the closed length?

3 1/2" closed, Johnie. Snaps like a gator too!

Looks like its brand new.. ...perfect size to carry.

It has some scratches and a little pitting on the blades and just a little bit of shrinkage of the handle scales. It's in great shape for a knife that is probably from the late 50s or early 60s. I will definitely get some pocket time. Sharp as a razor too, takes a good edge.

Old tin handles and a rusty blade best old knife ever made.

I like that Ideal Had the Schrades out the last few days the 804UH I got at the hardware store this week they found her and a few others in the back of the warehouse

yesterday


today : nothing at the moment

I'm headed out in a little while to go TRY and get the freight of my trailer!

Gonna wear shorts since I KNOW I ain't going to FMC.

Haven't picked a knife yet But I'm leaning towards:

finally only a little Sak

These two are in my pocket today:



a northfield and a canal street

Those are some good lookin' knives you boys are totin' around!


Here's the last of the three oldies I picked up. A Colonial equal end jack the same size and from about the same era as The Ideal I posted earlier. The Ideal is in better shape but this is still a cool old knife with plenty of life left in it.

SWEET! ^

The blades on my Humpback were looking worse all the time. So I have done a cleaning and at this moment it is having a mineral oil bath.

I do have these two at the moment:

Happy Father's Day to all of you Dads out there!
