Lawrence wrote:Nice finds everyone...DJ that Beekman pen is a beauty I went out to a few fleas this week-end and I was in the mood for finding some knives that could tell stories. I told myself that anything made in USA, Germany, England or Europe was coming home with me. I ended up finding a variety of knives - some for parts, and some users that I'll post as I clean them up. I'm carrying the German peanut today...it cleaned up quite nicely. cheers

I'd like a better look at that Ivory looking on with the corkscrew!

I ran across an old Case display cabinet, but it was in pretty poor shape, I was able to salvage this from it however.

That's really nice!

Great looking Case logo!

Great Case memento Simple Man

Good eye AKC...this one has definitely intrigued me. It's a quality knife and it reminds me of some of my older Robert Klaas Kissing Crane knives. The only marking on the tangs is a barrel with a spout. I searched through Goins and found that this symbol was used by D. Peres. I haven't had a chance to do much research, but would love to hear from anyone who might be able to date this. I would like to gently clean it up a bit, but these are some pics that I took as soon as I got home with it last week-end.

cheers

great snags,gdog

Told the fellers in the First Cup Diner this am we were going to a big flea market. Spent about 3 hours lookin' and didn't get to see a third of the place, Momma got tired and it was time to head home . Here's my haul for today. Have no idea about the 3 5/8" Cattle knife? Lettin' her soak awhile, shame the back side bone has a big piece missing . I think it'll clean up.

wow ,great pile o snags, tree

Dang Philip

Knice haul bro!

Hey treeman, does the steel have a name on it? and is that a Queen big chief? That's one I've never had, I suppose I should start my quest! Interesting bunch, as always Terry

Enjoyed findin' these goodies and negotiatin' with the proud owners.

The little sharpener is a 1/4" diameter ceramic rod, wooden handle, leather sheath embossed with KwickSharp ,Muskogee, Oklahoma. It has a small groove length wise, maybe a hook sharpening groove

The Big Chief is indeed a Queen #45, this one has seen better days, the blade etch is still visible and the tang has only PAT. NO. over 2728139, no Queen markings. I got the guy down to 3 bucks.

The Uncle Henry 167 filet knife is unsharpened but with a faded handle from the sheath.
