All About Pocket Knives

This is an MSA Sunfish

singin46 Please Xcuse me for not answering you faster.

I pick them up on E-bay but the prices seem to be going up some now.

They are still worth what you have to pay for them yet ($20.00). They were made in SEKI CITY WHICH PRODUCES TOP QUALITY KNIVES. Well thats what the seller says..

I am sure that you know with a name like COLEMAN they should be good..

I see some are now made in CHINA I would not get one of them.


dwygtd I did not know that you kept any of your knives. I have seem many of yours for sale and I sure do like your stuff you sell.

I just picked up a Groundhog Genuine Pearl made in Seki Japan. Japan makes some top Quality products. Alot of folks like to get them confussed with China. I look for knives that were produced in Japan like Parker and Bulldog the price is good and the quality is always good if not better than the state side made. I fly the colors Red white and Blue but 10 years in Japan and seeing the work ethic of that county they will always make some of the best products the world has to offer.

Is this what you are talking about ?

Yes, I just made a new post (thread) American knives made in Japan. Cloudy and rain today so I jacked the pictures off the internet.

I have 2 of each.

In Japan Coleman is real big and expensive. I'm sure they spent sometime in the making of these knives. Coleman products in Japan are priced at 3 to 4 times as much than here.

That knife is a dead ringer for the old Browne and Pharr knife made in Atlanta GA. See picture.

We started to stray about six posts back guys.


This is the STAG thread.

Here's one to get us back on track

A couple of 23s I picked from Mr. Perry (he's Mr. now, lol) NKCA President.......................... The basket knife is a 2006, and the other a 2007.

Those are sweet okbohn and Gary...

I especially like the Marbles sunfish and the stag on the GEC's, fantastic..

Is it my eyes are is the shield on the congress upside down..?

Thanks ol Sunnyone.............................


I'm trying to be a little more creative with my photos. Here's a Northwoods Trapper. They use some very nice stag on their knives. RiverRaisin has a few left!

Your pics are awesome, Gary.

Yeah, they are looking good. I like that trap used as a prop but I can't quite see enough of it to see what it's for or if there is a number in the pan, haven't seen one for a few years.

Good use of Winchestor .44-40 box and cartridges, I like it!

THOSE GECS ARE FINE GARY!!!!!!!!!!!!
GREAT SCORE MAN

Hey thanks guys!

It takes a little longer to set up a picture, but I think it's worth it.

Hukk, they are both Oneida-Victors. The small one is a 1 1/2. The larger one is pretty old, I can't make out the markings, but it's assembled with hot square rivet's, whereas the small one is spot welded.

Oneida............Hummmmmm, seems we have some stoneware of that name.

40 pages and going strong...............................

Here's an old dog shield KA-BAR. It's been a great user, seen many a hunt trip.



Gary

Y'all have some great stag. Gary I like that Kabar with the dog head shield. I have looked at very few Kabars in person. Are they as nice as they look in pictures?

James

I think they're a great knife! I only have about 5 of them, but no complaints here. They are very well made.
That one has been used hard; from chopping fire wood to skinning!
She's starting to show her age.

Here's the two blade Ka-Bar hunter, it's been to more states on hunting trips than the Pony Express covered!

It was a gift from my Grandfather. He was born in 1911, and started hunting heavy in the mid 1940s. It was the only knife he carried until his last trip in 1988.

He told me when they went to Canada hunting, they would just go out and do it, and then buy a tag for whatever they killed! Boy have things changed!

Gary

OK, last post of the year.

Here's a Stag 1st generation Bulldog Calf Roper.

In the background are photos of my Dad, doing what he loved. He was not a calf roper but a team roper, it was his passion. He won saddles, buckles, cash jackpots. He never went national, but he did well for a working man roping on weekends.
He passed away September 3rd, 2004. This is still a healing processes for me, I mean talking about him and recalling his life.
I never expected he would die, he was bigger than life. I didn't get to tell him I loved him and that he was a good father to us before he went.
Don't wait fellas if your loved ones are still around.


Gary

NEVER SEEN THAT ONE BEFORE....WHAT A BEAUTY. LOVE DEM BULLDOGS.
GREAT GARY

PERRY

Thanks Perry.

It's a 2st generation Calf Roper 149-A, courtesy of Hukk. Outstanding stag, the picture is a little busy to fully appreciate it.

NOT TOO BUSY FOR ME TO TELL A GREAT KNIFE WHEN I SEE ONE

PERRY

love those ka-bars, just my style
