Today's delivery. I love this shade of blue and it does a great job of setting off the Alox.

Nothing special, but I'm glad. Brand new pocket knives, made in country, that allready don't exist.

What's the name of the mine on the Bear? Because if it's coal-related, and the mine's in WV, VA, or KY I might be interested in it.

Scott can probably answer better than I can, but I think it’s Yellow Lake Mine. Looking that up shows a mine in Wisconsin and one in British Columbia. I didn’t see one in the Appalachia’s.

Same here Eustac, really cool knives. Just like the Imperial and Richards advertising knives found in Canada/USA.
Another load of great knives guys Keep it up
Yesterday my 1981 Queen Dealer Catalog arrived. Really neat addition to the stash. Even has the dealer order sheet with 1982 wholesale prices.
All for $40. Me happy!

Located just north of Equality, IL, it's halfway between Shawneetown and Harrisburg where I lived my freshman year of high school. The mine is closed now for safety reasons. There are a lot of coal mines in Southern Illinois.TripleF wrote: Willow Lake Mine

On the previous page Jerry posted his 4 blade blue alox SAK. I posted that i really like the 5 blade version. Until recently this came with a saw as the 5th blade. Now there is also a version with scissors in place of the saw.
These alox knives are the best SAK's, except: no pick or tweezers.

Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
kj, I think it likely it is a Queen production. I sent an inquiry to MM about this. I think that Bear may be the current maker. If I get a response I'll be sure to post it.

Really nice MM QS! Love that red bone. Mmmmmmmmm.
About Queen,
Just was looking on ebay. The flood gates have been opened boys! All those unfinished blade blanks, almost finished knives from the Queen auction are now on the market. The value of any Queen fixed blade you guys may have tanked.
When 1 seller has over 100,000 parts that tells you something. How much stuff was sitting when Queen closed there doors?
It's really nice because the blanks are all finished, stamped. All they need is a final sharpening and handles. Cheap now to do semi custom knifes.
Happy me!
