Yahoo! A Toolkit!

Ever since I found out toolkit knives existed. I’ve wanted one. I knew Richards made them, but until a day ago, I didn’t know Imperial did toi.
This is a very kind bomb from a member who wants to stay anonymous. You know who you are, most kind sir!
Thé plactic case is so old that I hesitate to do much cleaning up. The knife itself shows an advertisement for the Florida-Georgia Tractor Company, which is pretty cool!
Did I mention, YAY!!!

Awesome to see such a well aimed bomb.
Can we get a pic with all the tools laid out?

Oh (in my best Curley Joe imitation) Sheepfoot main, or is that a rope blade. Nice.

Nice score! I see quite a few of the knives, but I can't say I've ever seen (well, other than the one you show) the complete kit!

Very cool! Great gift to a great person...
One other thing,
I found this over on ebay that may perk your interest Ann, All i'll say it is a Richards Sheffield, and i know you are always on the lookout for them.

Sorry to derail the thread, i just keep forgetting to let you know when i find these.

Here you go. There is a piece at the end of the knife that holds the extra blades. The knife blade isn’t removable. It’s just way cool!

Much appreciated! As it happens, I do have that item.
I don’t do EBay, actually. For me, the fun of the hunt is a big part of collecting.
(Bombs excepted, of course!) I like to see and feel the knife before I buy it. Fortunately, I’m blessed with three big swapmeets every weekend and fairly regular antique shows throughout the year. There are also antique stores all over the place and it’s very nearly yard sale season. Yay!
Thank you for the thought anyway!

Ok, that sounds great!
I have to agree about the bay. Way to easy to spend money on stuff you are not necessarily interested in buying. Half the fun of collecting is the hunt, look at what happened when i went to Yorkton G&H show.
You are a lucky person...

I only manage to make it to 1 show a year. 42 miles out of town doesn't help any.
Anyway good for you and good luck hunting.
