All About Pocket Knives

... This posting I reckon is for those safe queens (or maybe holiday knives as well ) That you might pull out once in a while and admire and say to yourself "I'm going to start carrying this one .... someday ... ....maybe... )...but you never do ... Or maybe a Christmas knife you take out right around the 24th of December and keep in your pocket in case there is a noise on the roof top near the chimney and a breaking and entering attempt sometime around midnight

Just because you never use it... it's still a Wonderful Knife!

Defiantly a display knife beautiful

Thanks G,D,

I agree with garddogg- that one is for displaying and admiring!

Gorgeous one, GSP. I wouldn't want to mess the etch up on it.

That is a beauty, just don't trust Uncle Billy with it, or it may end up in Mr. Potter's hands!

Yeah, who wants to live in Potterville?

Here is one I swore would never be used. Didn't even want to carry it for fear of cracking the pearl.....but it wound up in my pocket.
Working on my vintage Pontiac one day replacing intake manifold gaskets, a piece of the old gasket stuck to the head & I reached in my pocket & withdrew the knife.
Not wanting to get down from my stool to get a scraper, opened the blade & proceeded to remove the piece of old gasket. Worked good & no damage to the Damascus blade.
The only knife I won't carry are ones that are too big or illegal.

Thanks Tim, R&R, and Ike, I stopped using it to chop the kindling for the fireplace a while back... I have a pretty heavy-duty Vietnam era Randle for that

This one has been a safe Queen too.....

K7K... "They" say a knife is meant to used.... I reckon "they" is right I like the looks of that Damascus blade, you have a "wonderful knife" there
