KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY

[ken98k]

Miss Joy likes to go with me to the barbershop as there is an antique/junk store next door. Look what jumped up out of one of the little glass covered display cases, hidden amongst the earrings and necklaces:004.JPG

Nice hauls fellas.

We've about run the wheels off Miss Joy's Fusion, went to Panama City Beach this morning to start knee shots then back north through our town to the next town, Graceville to get a hair cut and to pick up our little black hearted Dachshund alarm system from friends who kept him while we were gone to Central Florida.

Floyd, I was able to afford the lunch tab, just added a few more points to my card.
Bruce, the tool box is new or at least it hasn't been used. I Googled the brand name Trinity and found they are still being made.

Philip I'm very happy for you and your hauls this week...I am, I promise....BUT I am also happy you won't be present at Webster this coming
Monday!!

[WillyCamaro]

Careful TF, he might just take a special trip to meet you

[zoogirl]

That’s a great box! I really like it.
Say, what’s in the very long leather sheath, with a handle just peeping out?
Oh, and what IS the story on that wire handle?!

[treefarmer]

WillyCamaro, I live a bit too far to go to that flea market on a regular basis. It's about 300 miles from where we live and it's only about 60 from where Scott lives.
Ann, it's an Uncle Henry Schrade+USA 168. I would imagine it is called a filet knife.

Uncle Henry Schrade+USA 168

[zoogirl]

Ah, nice! Thanks. It looked bigger in the picture. I was sort of going by the sharpening steel. Mine is kinda huge.

Recently pulled this out the ground on a construction site. Any idea on its value. It's say ibberson made in Sheffield on the bladed

It has sterling silver scales.....and some custom file work.
Not sure of value...

Looks to be in pretty good shape for being in the ground. Must not have been there long.

Very nice haul!
I particularly like the three blade at the bottom and the two stag fixeds. The lowest little fixed looks home made. Is it? The wire handled fixed has me very curious. Dunno why, but it seems old to me.
Dir110, I don’t clean much either. I like HOK’s and I just don’t want to make a worse mess. I’ll pretty much stick to the pencil with maybe a bit of alcohol if some twit stuck a big price tag on it.

Your right, yesterday I picked up a 2-pack of those big pink erasers and it works like a charm.

[dlr110]

I hope you folks don't mind, but here are some pictures from the latest haul I made up to Missouri.
This is actually a switchblade, pull the flapper back and press and the blade flies open. No markings. Handle is 6" and blade 4 3/4"

Keen Kutter

Buck 382 w/Bill Dance Signature etched on both blades.

Queen 90 USA on the tang and Queen Steel #25 on the blade.

CASE Lockback with beautiful wood handles

Camillus Crossed Swords w/Razor Edged logo etched on blade.

More to follow.

[dlr110]

Here are a few more.
This is a small 3 blade with Eagle Edge on the shield and the tang has ICIC C does anyone have any info on this knife or the tang stamp?

Nice little Winchester I couldn't pass on.

Bear MGC USA w/001 on the shield

Nice handcrafted single blade of damascus steel, maker unknown

Nice CASE XX

Queen Steel 3 blade Stockman

Rocky Mountain USA I bought it just because! 7 1/4" blade, 4 1/2" handle

[treefarmer]

That's an interesting bunch of knives. The old Keen Kutter and the old Queen got my attention.

[Quick Steel]

David, as treefarmer said, your wide-ranging assortment is very interesting.

[doglegg]

David, for variety alone that is a great bunch of knives. Like the switch and the Damascus especially. But I wouldn't be disappointed with any of them. You had quiet a successful trip. Thanks for sharing.

[WillyCamaro]

Everything they have already said.
Great haul David

[WillyCamaro]

The Queen Barlow really speaks to me
I hope you got a good deal on her

[dlr110]

Thank you everyone. I had a great time finding all of these and meeting some very nice folks. I will have some of them on my website soon and some reviews of the antique stores where I found them.
WillyCamaro if you're referring to the Queen one arm barlow I picked it up for $24.99. It's in absolute good condition and I just couldn't walk away.

[Pile Driver]

My mother was walking the flea market with my brother and picked this Kinfolks out for me, sent me a picture and I bit for $30. Its got some issues but I like the size and the jigged bone and heavy stamped guard. Any guess on the age? She has a good eye.

[doglegg]

A good eye indeed. And the sheath looks great as well.

[steve99f]

Your mother is a good scout! Nice pickup!

[TripleF]

Some from Monday's flea market finds...

[dlr110]

Now that's what I'm talking about Scott!!! That's the kind of knife hunting I enjoy doing. Do you know who made the one in the middle with True Value on the shield?

[treefarmer]

Spoils from Webster? I see a project or two in that pile.
