Hello from Northern Ohio

Well Hello Everyone.
I think I found out about this forum looking through the comments of one of Reverend's videos. Anyway, I was really into slip joints in the early 70's to 80's. I bought lots of knives from places like Ace Hardware and Western Auto. I always bought them with my own money or a friend would give me one or two. I lost All of those knives over the years of moving out and my parents moving several times. Now I am chasing after those fairly inexpensive knives. They were mostly Imperials and Colonials with a few Remington and others. Don't think I ever had any real collectible or expensive ones.
I have a real soft spot for the ones that just need cleaned up and those that need a little TLC. I am trying to learn what I can about repairing and saving them, so that is what I am mostly interested in, at this time. Some of it is relearning stuff I used to know and kind of forgot, which is exciting.
I guess that's it for now. I'm enjoying this forum and pouring through threads.
Take Care
Dave
