Interesting and varied collection. Since you like the Nehi “leg” knives you might find this interesting.

Thanks so much Ken - that was a really interesting and informative read. As it turns out, it is a replica, but you probably already detected that, but I love it regardless
I didn't know anything about it when I bought it other than it was just fun and a little different. I just love fun little ones, I don't ever buy them because I think they're worth anything, but they are worth something to me because they bring me joy admiring them

What a great collection!
I think that other than Swiss Army knives, the Dick Tracy knife is the first one I've seen with a magnifying glass.

Nice collection! I own a few of those Western knives as well and one with Lou Gherig, the baseball player. I believe these were mainly from the Novelty Knife Co. which went defunct in 1948.
