Re: Waterville Cutlery Co.
Hey there, Joe... First time visiting the board since moving to Virginia a couple years back. Glad to see you are still posting cool looking knives. That quill knife certainly complements your Congress Whittler. Would display nicely together. Unfortunately for me, even tho I've been looking... it's ...

Re: Y'all have any Schrade I*XL Wostenholm knives ????
Just stumbled across this thread which is timely as I finally acquired last month "Herald's of the Sea" set I been on the hunt for a while now. Figure better take some photos now before getting packed with the rest of the collection for the big move from NY to VA soon. This set not only ha...

The Schrade 3rd Generation ad helps date the notebook as they were introduced in the early 1980's.

Re: Lets show some Old and Rare ones.
Thanks Joe.
The congress is a pattern that has eluded me thus far...
Ridgegrass' & Lloyd's have a knice classic look to them... of course, I have a bias opinion being NYC is one of my favorite brands...
Skip... yet another fine all metal knife.

Re: Dull vs Sharp
Thank you, Ken. In the thread that I posted on Oct, 3, 17, you will read that the problem I had with the blade was a failure of the blade itself. It was a failure in manufacturing I assume and not something I did to abuse the blade. Are you also surprised that I encouraged you to use your nice old ...

Thanks guys for all your opinions... I thought I would be in the vast minority on this one... I took a picture of my knives that I have in rotation at this time. Except for the Spyderco, please replace one of them in a month. I know, you probably can't and I probably can't either. They're almost irr...

Dull vs Sharp
Overlooking the obvious that a knife being used as an EDC definitely needs to have a sharp edge... but many of my antique / vintage knife acquired for display in a collection have dull blades. Now I've been pondering... ::hmm:: do I keep them the way that they are in order to have the blades as clos...

There's one of those currently being offer on eBay for $199 + $6.50 S&H

Re: Red Trout Knives
Have noticed some have showing up for auction on eBay lately... makes me wish I had picked a couple of duplicates when I had the chance... It was Richard's conception... but it was Eric's talented work and he continues to produce them now under his own name... Albers Cutlery.

Re: Old Pruning and Horticultural Knives
Thanks Ike & Lee. I know Northfields are hard to find in general, but I did not realize the hawkbill would be one of their unusual patterns.
Lee, I find your 2 cents more valuable... I guess you can say I consider it inflationary information.
