All About Pocket Knives

Dimitri...those are sweet ...never seen a metal scaled one.

Thanks Johnnie

That is a Presto, the handles were cheaply made metal to simulate jigged bone and sold at a lower cost than a real bone handle knife

That’s the first one that I have seen...you would think since it was a lower dollar knife..there would be more around.
Then on the other hand.. they probably got used more...beat up more, then tossed.

The ones marked Edgemaster are very common.

Very similar painted black handle, but for some reason the Presto marked ones are harder to find

whats the stamp on dem bones ?

Schrade Cut. Co

Nice Schrades !! Group shot of many my Press Button knives with a few 06-07 dated Schrade Cut and a few Flylocks.

I love these old American picked bone scales!

Very nice guys

I love them... ...first class knives Desktop...

It's a shame they had to quit making them.

Here's one you don't see too often:a Schrade switchblade letter opener with advertising.Easy to date this one.

I have that exact knife with the same advertising

That is neat Dimitri.Did you buy your locally? I got mine on e-bay a couple years ago for a VERY reasonable price.

Got it in Mass. not far from my home

It was the first switch letter opener I ever found


You got a real good find there

The only one I own.E-bay had some real deals if you knew where to look. I used to find more daggers listed as letter openers. When I first got into e-bay I used to have a limit of $20 on anything I bought.That changed when a guy beat me out with a bid of $25 for an Abraham Davery Bowie circa 1850 that was listed as a letter opener!
The Schrade was a good one;set me back $15 with shipping.
