I saw that pile and said something highly unladylike!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
If I could find a Keen Kutter knife in the DFW area it would cost at least an arm. If you are within 100 miles of St. Louis you see them all the time and they are priced very affordable. Here are two Keen Kutter's I picked up at Antique Treasures in Farmington, MO. I always stop there to look for knives and have never been disapointed.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Here is a Bear MGC USA Barlow. 2 blades of damascus steel, smooth bone handle and the # 001 etched in the shield. Could this be the first knife in that series?

My finds of the last week or so. An unknown Japanese fixed blade, three TL29's. One Kline and 2 Camillus. An Imperial Ireland Granddaddy Barlow, 2 Kent Scouts, a Colonial Scout with the handles on backwards, a Royal Brand USA, a Syracuse Knife Company, a Schrade Walden 834 and a Rough Rider toothpick. I've been busy cleaning!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Very nice pile! I see a couple that I’d give a home to!
I do love going knife hunting. You just never know what will jump up at you. I think I get almost a big a kick looking at everyone else’s haul too!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Scott, I have no familiarity with Handy Andy but the serrations on that blade look to me as tho they would be practical, that is that they would work pretty efficiently.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Talking about food.
If any of you guys ever come up here. They say some of the best bbq to be had is in Nipawin, Saskatchewan. About 2 1/2 hour drive north of me. It is called The Dam Smokehouse. Guys say its some of the best anywhere. I have plans when i'm up that way...

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Apparently I don’t have to leave home to buy knives!
I was talking about my collection to the male roomie. (A young couple shares the main floor with me). He said that he had a big knife that had come in as garbage at his old recycling job. Un fortunately he took a grinder to it, but... I promptly threw a little $ at him anyway...
He hadn’t managed to trash the tang stamp...
As you guys know, any Pal is a pal of mine!
Wheeeee - touchdown!

Ann, sometimes they just fall into your lap. That one is just perfect for you. A fixed blade and a PAL to boot. Proud for you.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Here is today’s haul. The pistol knife was a gift from a fellow at my local club and the Richards and little J Thompson are from the Red Barn/Vancouver Flea Market.
I think the fixed was part of a two knife set originally. It’s a cutie! He has a slightly smaller one too, which I may snag next week.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Picked up a very interesting stag handled old knife that is tang marked Pat. Ang. SZL Rostfrei and bolster deep stamped RAPID. The knurled brass and steel knob hides the thin flipper lever that you open and close the blade with. I'm guessing it's German and is a very good quality knife. I found one web site and they called it a rolling lock. I need to do some more research on this knife. The seller threw in the well used Marshall Wells Hawkbill in on the deal.____Dave
