All About Pocket Knives

I've had this knife since i was in 10th grade. Bought it at Walmart back when they sold good knives. I remember carrying it to school daily and using it to cut things. Nearly every boy had a pocket knife down in his pocket. Nobody got stabbed. This would land you a nice suspension now.

We did ALOT of fishing back then. That's probably why some of the ink is gone. Or just wore off.

I remember those I had one with a bobcat on it. Lost it in a corn field Great knives

i can't belive i still have this one. if i had all the knives i lost when i was a kid..........

I believe that nice knife was part of the Great American Outdoors series, looks like 1989. A good knife that still looks ready to go.

Isn't that the disappointing truth about WalMart. My Super WalMart just quit carrying firearms as well as most of the quality knives.

suspension? I think it's straight to jail now. When I was in school every pickup in the parking lot had a rifle or shotgun on the back window gun rack and everybody had a pocket knife. This was in the late 70's. There were no stabbings or shooting either. A lot has changed since then.

In the cities of California, possesion a knife may get you kicked out of school. The offender would have to go to an alternative school or to the public school where they send the troublemakers. I do not think it as rigid in more rural areas.
Times have changed, I carried a knife every day and never thought about pulling it on someone, even in a fist fight. Gee, come to think of it I had a lot of those and a lot of suspensions for that. I was never a troublemaker, I just never had the sense to walk away. Still, I never thought of pulling a knife, ever!

GOT IT WHEN MY GRANDFATHER PASSED. NOTHIN SPECIAL XEPT FOR THAT BUT I LIKE IT

All I know about this one is she's a Boker.

I have never seen one like her so I am starting to think its a custom handle job...

I couldn't help it, thinking of Wall-Jerks, only place I can get a USA made Buck 110 for $27.00 out the door.

Back in 1981, you would never believe where I bought a Remington 7400 in a 30.06. Was in San Jose, Ca. area and Best Buy sold guns then, CHEAP! That's the one, home of the Geek Squad. Don't know if they all did.
