All About Pocket Knives

Aah, learned something new again! :D :D :D Thank you guys! @Rookie: I am totally with you! That´s a trait in people that I will never understand. After all they haven´t got a grasp of what it´s all about capitalism and the most simple laws of the market. ::dang:: "Stubborness" is not enoug...

Wow, those are too nice! Very classy....

The handles are awesome! I would have thought that is an older knife because of the shield but I am not an expert though....

Well, "every morning an idiot gets out of bed" as we say in Germany. They might be lucky every now and then when someone pays one of their silly prices...

BTW Jerry, what´s the meaning of "burning my tail feathers"? After all I am here to learn something...

Well, that´s what I´d call a cool story! My jaw would have dropped too on his question. As it seems not all is lost..... ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu:: I second Perry´s remark about the computer kids: My son learned such an amount of English in no time just by surfing the www and watching US TV shows. I bet h...

Oh yeah, been there, done that.... I think I am a bit obsessed with Barlows, One Armed Jacks and electricians knives. Ah well, there are a lot less patterns I don´t like than the ones I like. Apart from knives it had been vintage cameras (got bitten by the Leica-bug...), motorcycles, modern digital...

2 per year? WHAT THE........I smoke 2 per day!

Enjoy!

Scott, you´re my man! That´s what I call a cigar smoker.

K7K the cutters with the razor blade should work fine on a cigar!

If I find myself without a cigar cutter I use my knives too but prefer the clean cut of a very sharp cutter to it. Bit and spit never worked for me. Guess I am not a cowboy.......

Same here.... All the SFO´s seem to go quite quickly these days. Got to hunt it down on secondary sites....

GEC is the best you can get IMHO. Tunas seem to be a bit on the expensive side...

I believe the knife in your top photo is an electricians knife. http://www.loewenmesser.de/index.php/en/ It is, the european type. For cutting cigars I would only recommend the Victorinox, everything else will most likely shred the cigars wrapper. If it´s only for collection purposes there´s no pro...

That´s too cool!

Your friend is right about that! Two wars were enough to put all the nice stuff to waste here....
I haven´t saved the auction and can´t find it any longer - sorry....

How you doing today Dimitri? Any good flea markets going on in NH? Doing well thank you! No more good flea markets around here anymore :( What little there is is mostly modern junk, if you are lucky every once and a while you may find something or maybe at an antique shop. Believe it or not there i...

Sometimes I find it a lot handier to have a small sized knife hanging from my neck than trying to fumble inside a pocket for it. You even need two hands most of the time to get your pocket knife ready for action. I never wear it for decorative reason. I found it quite astounding the neck knives are...

OMG what a knife! A similar (without the golf and damascus) was sold on the German Ebay a few weeks ago. I was determined to win it and bid high but to now avail - it went for a ridiculus price.....

One day.....

Why would you wear a knife around your neck?! :shock: ::paranoid:: :lol: Sometimes I find it a lot handier to have a small sized knife hanging from my neck than trying to fumble inside a pocket for it.

Strangely enough some shipments are here in just 10 days or so, other took as much as seven (7) weeks to get here! :roll: Well, USPS only seems to be in two modes: Asleep or going postal! :lol: :lol: A problem much worse is that I can´t get some handle materials past german customs. Fossil ivory or ...

Ooh, pushdaggers - highly illegal here!

Unfortunately it´s dark when I get home from work, lot´s of thing to take care about on weekends and my ministudio is in use at my workplace. I will try to shoot a few more neck knives this Sunday....

:lol: And I thought you would end up with a razor blade with all that sanding! :wink: Great job, well done! ::tu:: I have to confess that I am a "sander" and "polisher" too. :oops: I am not much concerned about rust pits but more about those awkward "sharpening" attempt...

Great knife Perry! I have ordered mine today before it slips away like the other GECs.

So to say a "de-necker"...

wow, that what I call a nice haul!

Looks like he ruined a perfectly good piece of meat. The cheap boot deserves it though.....

I try to stay under six inch with my neckers. Don´t want to scare people more than necessary...

Ok, when the sun comes up tomorrow I´ll shoot a few more neckers.
