Thank you Too Many Knives.

Nice knife, Garry, beautiful wood. Better yet, great to see a post from you!Quick Steel wrote: ↑Wed Sep 22, 2021 10:20 pm This is model 168 Bluer Impulse. It features a spear point blade mirror polished, 3 3/4". It was designed and made by Mr. Masui of Hiro knives. He is a member of the Seki Cut group. The handle is 4-1.8" with blue Anodized Titanium and Quince Burl wood. Considering the workmanship of Mr. Masui and the quality of materials used I found the cost surprisingly low.

That looks super clean! Careful putting that in your pocket ... I always forget and drop in a mint piece with about $5.00 in loose change, some Allen wrenches and a few self tapping 3" screws...doglegg wrote: ↑Wed Sep 22, 2021 2:23 pm A good friend had shown me this knife a while ago and I immediately ask if it was for sale. The answer was no as it was one of his favorite knives and in excellent condition. Sense then I have continued to inquire about it and finally the answer was to ask what I thought it was worth. I gave my answer as an at least price, he responded with a price and we were able to come to a dollar amount satisfactory to both of us. It is a Schrade 863 KON-KAV in wonderful condition. The handles are bone!!! More than I've ever paid for a 72 style knife but excited to get to house it for a while. I will post more pics in the 72 clone thread. How do I feel about this one?

That one will probably never see my pocket GSP.... It will spend it's life with my other 72's. I have done things like that before so this one will stay home.GSPTOPDOG wrote: ↑Wed Sep 22, 2021 11:08 pmThat looks super clean! Careful putting that in your pocket ...

Boys, y'all are showing some might fine knives, especially the haul of Case folding hunters from Case XX 6383!
Feel kinda' sheepish showing up with my little 2 bladed Pal Cutlery with it's little shackle. I found my 1st Pal about 10 years ago down at the Webster Flea Market. It was a small single bladed Pal with a shackle, a little research and I have gathered up a few more but the one that came today came from the shallow end of the bay, $2.99 plus $4.00 shipping. Some of the books call these handles, Pryemite. Both blades had a few rust spots that cleaned up fairly well with a pencil lead, blades have half stops, great walk and talk. As usual somebody tried to sharpen it and there are a few scratches on the blades. Still pretty nice for a 70+ year old knife that cost me $2.99. Treefarmer
