tank, while I haven't used the Condor it does feel really nice in hand.

Producer, great looking woodcraft, I've always like that blade design.

Buck 119 Special, circa 1981 (425M Stainless Steel). OH

[Producer]

Nice 119 OH!

[1967redrider]

That knife is a classic, everyone should have one of those.

[tank]

I could google but you guys are better. What's makes the 119 Special special?

[Old Hunter]

Thanks guys. Tank, the balance on that knife, the ergonomics of holding/using it, and the svelte lines all combine to prove Buck named it right! OH
PS I don't know why Buck chose the name "Special".

[tank]

So every 119 is Special?

[Old Hunter]

Yep Tank, "Special" is the official name of the Buck Model 119. As you look around you will find that all the Buck knives in that series have a model number and a name. OH

Here's another Western of mine.

[Jacknifeben]

Just got this knife-ax combo and need some info on age and if KINFOLK really made it. Family said they had no idea of how many years it had been laying in the drawer.

Good looking L39.

jacknifeben, I'm no expert, but it sure looks good to me! beautiful set! Here's a little dandy that I just picked up. The big "C" stamping is something I don't see everyday, and I'm sure it's scarce to see a 557 sab in this condition.

[Quick Steel]

Very handsome knife. Congrats!

Picked up this Camillus 1940-?? Air Force and Navy leather sheath knife. Were they issued or available in Px?
Do those dots on the guard come from the factory?

[Producer]

Neat Camillus Tank.

Wayne, your Marbles collection is just amazing. It makes me just want to stop collecting. I have chased an 8" stacked leather Ideal with aluminum pommel forever.

Recent Puma acquisition .. .
Rooskied a (# 909-J shaken NOT stirred - see manual)
The odd blade stamp intrigued me.
Sent pic to THE Puma guy..
He confirmed not only PRE 64 but
It was 1956-58 .. .
Stamped only on the tang...
Nothing out on the end of the blade face like
newer 6377 White Hunters

Enjoy and HET !!!

"The PUMA® White Hunter knife is handmade in Solingen, Germany, and has long set the standard for the ultimate hunting knife. The PUMA White Hunter was developed in 1956 in conjunction with the East African Professional Hunter’s Association to be the leading knife for big game hunting."

Shortly after the White Hunter was introduced, I remember seeing them advertised in outdoor magazines such as Field & Stream and Outdoor Life. I had a major Jones on for one back in those days but didn't get one until 40+ years later. Congrats Mr.B.
