The King of Vintage Pocketknives Sister.....

Post by bonehead »

Hello All,

There will be only (1) Uno, A single time I will have a knife like this as it is my Grail Knife. This one rounds out " America's Finest Vintage Cutlery " David and I share the same sentiments on Knives like this, He has spoken well so I will not say more. Funny thing is that a few short weeks ago These two were just inches a part in another collection. I know they both have found some sweet homes and that both of these Big Boys will be cherished for many years to come.

I'm very blessed to have ::nod:: this one....... Very Proud Pappa here as well Bonehead

The only thing that somewhat bothered me about David getting that stag Platts was I knew that Bonehead had apparently missed out on a great swell-center toenail.

Now, I feel better. ::tu::

That's a great knife BH and I'm glad it found its way into your collection.

Congratulations!

When I first learned of this opprotunity to purchase from this notable collection, Alan was the first person I contacted. He and my very good friend Mike (Galvanic) are among the few who understand my passion for vintage knives. Congrats to you Alan for rounding out a collection that would make any knife knut proud to own it.

Thanks all my fellow collector's.. for the kind words ::handshake:: This one on occasion will stand center front in my display. Yes David for sure we are only temporary care takers of our passion, we will move on one day and I can only hope all of our most favorite pieces will travel on to destinations and carry the history with them for others to tell years from now.
