Have you asked for any knives for Christmas?

Post by TKC »

I was wondering if any of you have asked for anything sharp and pointy for Christmas? I have asked for a Combat Elite RRF, green handles and black black maxx inserts, and manual. Here is a link to the RRF: http://www.combatelite.com/knives_rr.shtml

I haven't asked for any knives this year, because I recently closed my shop, and have about 700 in storage. I am giving some away though. I have given Cold Steel stockmans to an uncle and brother-in-law, Cold Steel Voyager to my brother, 14 Smith&Wesson twin blade Cuttin Horses to some friends, and held a drawing($1.00 per entry for Katrina Relief) for a Benchmade Pika. I LOVE playing Santa!

Well I'am hoping some of my family gets me a knife for CHRISTmas, but it is the season for giving so I'am giving some Case knive to a nephew, brother-inlaw, and future brother-in-laws. It's fun to pass an addiction around. Maybe become collectors themselves. :evil: ::tu::

I bought my brother, who is a volunteer Firefighter, FT College studet (his major is CJ. He wants to be a Cop) [ His big sister {me} also wants to be a Cop], and also hold down a job; 2 Spyderco's. I got his a Pacific Salt & a D'Allara Rescue 2 for Christmas. I think he will LOVE these knives!! I am very PROUD of my brother (he is 21!!)!! And I LOVE him with all my heart and soul.

I'm getting myself a knife for Christmas -- a Queen Mountain Man Lockback in Sambar Stag and 1095 steel from Cumberland Knifeworks. I've reserved it, just waiting for them to come in.

My father in law is getting a blue bone Boker large stockman from me. I wanted to get him something kind of nice, but balance that with the knowledge that he'll treat it about as gingerly as you would a screwdriver. My Dad and Step Dad already both have slipjoints that I got them for their birthdays. Neither of them EDCed anything before that and now they both often tell me they don't know how they ever got along without a pocketknife.

My father in law already carries a small SAK on his keychain so for him the Boker will just be an upgrade.

I don't know if i'll get a knife from anyone or not this year, I'm not very vocal asking for myself. I did get a friend of mine a Boker red pick bone copperliner. I also got my 8 yr old nephew a case stag peanut, a boker red bone trapper , and larger knife roll to keep his growing collection.

christmas knives

Post by wt3l »

Hey Steve, I was your case Christmas knife, really a nice one. You mentioned that it had 10 dots on it. I've always heard that the number of dots indicates what year the knife was made. Is that true or do the dots mean something else? Also some case knives have something like four dots above and maybe six or seven dots below the name on the tang. Any help clarifying me on this? thanks wt3l

christmas knives

Post by wt3l »

Well, I was lucky enough to get two nice knives from Santa...ok, ok one from my wife and one from her brother who I have converted over from his idle time on Mondays and Fridays. HEHEHE he now joins us to watch the knife show on Dish Network. My wife got me a beautiful Mother of Pearl/Lapis Senator it's on a Camillus frame. My brother-in-law gave me a nice Case Canoe in Amber bone with Chrome Vanadium blades. I don't have a digital camera to show you guys my knives. I do have a scanner though. It might work that way. I'm not the greatest on a pc. Anyway we hope each and everyone of you all had a great Christmas. wt3l

christmas knife

Post by wt3l »

Thanks a lot Sunburst....I will try and do better on the pictures, hehehe The knife came in a box marked Sante Fe Stoneworks. I think they take some old knives, like this one and redo the handles. A local fountain type Drug Store has part of his store area dedicated to knives, that's where my Santa Wife found this one. the web site is http://www.newgraham.com they have a pretty good selection. thanks again. wt3l

wt3l,

Just as info...New Graham is one of the best known, most respected, online knife dealers in the world. ::tu:: ::tu::

They are on par with our host here (Bryan) for quality, pricing, and customer service.

Sante Fe Stoneworks does great work on all kinds of knives...yours is a beautiful example.

Thanks Bill, I knew New Graham sold lots of knives every day, but I had no idea they were of that magnitude. My inlaws eat breakfast nearly every morning at "The Last Great Soda Fountain" another part of the store. I know many employees, it truely is a first class operation. It's real gratifying to see great things happen to real good people. Thanks so much for your kind words... Keith J.
