Thanks knifegnome and doglegg for your nice comments!

Knifegnome I am particularly fond of Robeson PocketEze, Mastercraft, No-Rustain and Perma lube folders. But mainly the PocketEze line. I also pursue and collect Schrades (anything pre WWII). I am also a big fan of NYK folders ::nod:: How about you? 😃

I just added an all metal, New York Knife Co. to my collection.
It needs a little clean-up and I need to fix the tip of the main blade.

BUT.... it still has a nice blade etch that reads...."E H BEST & Co"....

Here is a few sellers pics...

Best & co_4.jpg
Best & co_6.jpg

This should be a fun one to clean up... :D

That's a nice little knife, Mike.
The New York Knife Co. stamp is always a plus.
Very attractive graphics on that blade.
