Thank you sir!!

Got these 2 from a pawn shop!!!

Nice Buck, made by Camillus about 1972... Ken

Stopped by a small flea market /parking lot market , and got these from a guy that lived near the Schrade factory at one time.He had a few more of the 1250 (white scrimshaw) in the box ,they were still in the plastic wrapper but the lubricant is stuck to the knife,not sure it will clean off the white handles.

knifegnome,
Way to go! Looks like you hit a jack pot today! There appears to only be a couple of raggedy ones in the pile.

Very nice haul! I wonder how Scott (TripleF) missed them.

Two Robesons and a Glock.

Well here is one I found in Missouri. It is a very well made knife, but is it the real deal or a well made reproduction? Tell me what you think.

Made my weekly visit to one of the Gun shows in search of a few additions to my addiction. Found a New York Knife Co hobo knife in a pile of misc gun accessories for $4. I don’t collect hobo knives but I knew this company ceased business the 1930s. Any info members can provide about this Knife would be appreciated. I also found an unmarked knockoff of a Swiss Army Knife (Swiss Champ). Again this was in the same pile with gun accessories. Another Case (Peanut) was found along with a Hen and Rooster Congress. Other than these pickings were pretty poor[attachment

This was made by Bear and Sons shortly after schrade closing in 2004

Nice finds, Louisville...some nice history involved with a couple of those. That Hobo slot knife is pretty kool!

I think it's pretty cool when you buy a whole bushel of knives like that! That would be a fun thing to do!

Good grief Scott!!! You are the KING This is all I've come up with so far today. This was made by a guy here in south St. Louis, Mo.
.

That's a beauty David.
Scott, I bet you had a ear to ear smile when you first spotted those hatchets.

Thanks fellas!

I did indeed Dan.....I had never seern a double bit Norlund before or a Hudson Bay Norlund that small....only 12" OAL.

This was my haul today plus 4 that my grandson got.

Scott and David, Impressive haul,
I must not be living right, I can never find anything worth buying that won't break the bank.

LOL......I hear ya bro.....I once bought one, sold it and lost money. Actually that wasn't once.
All mine are for sale if any interest you.

Scott, David...very nice finds. Some great looking knives in those groups.

Antique shops find today. ebony HS&B serp. jack that I can't wait to clean up, a Cam.long line Delrin camper, a pearl serp. double end pen 22163, a Stevenson military, all metal, a slick black Boker that was camera shy and hid in my pocket until I was posting the picture and a few other non knife things.____Dave

Great finds, Dave. I wonder how many folks still use ice picks or for that matter ever used an ice pick? We used to buy ice by the block for our water cooler when I was working at land surveying as a young man. The ice was available in 25lb blocks, we would split it in half with an ice pick and each half would just fit in the corrugated metal water coolers in the back of the Willys jeep wagons we worked out of. Boy oh boy! That was a long time ago, about 1965 or so.
