shell handled knives

Cool ad Joe! But, is my math off? 2 dozen selling at $1 each is $24, but the assortment costs $29? What am I missing?

Looks like it was a mechanical display that you could refill so the first but cost more than the refills probably did.

Ahhh...I missed the part about the mechanical movement, makes more since now.

Well, I can't believe it's taken all these years to pickup one of the HB toothpicks with candy stripe handles, but I did finally manage to find a pretty decent one. It's not mint, but it doesn't miss it by very much.

Picked up another HB Barlow. It cleaned up better then I thought it was going to, judging from the pics in the auction.

I posted this one in the IKCO thread, but I reckon this is the more suitable thread for it. 46'-56' Imperial Super Kamp King.

Thanks Guys! I didn't realize until recently that they actually produced the Barlows in 2 sizes. One is 3" the other 3-3/8". A way to quick reference them is, the 3-3/8" model has Barlow stamped on the bolster, the bolster on the 3" is plain. Which now puts me back up to 3 known patterns I need to complete my collection of cracked ice shells.
