Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I got this solid jack knife on Saturday for $9 and change. Delrin covers - 3 5/8" long.
I can't remember who used this stamp. Camillus?
Anyway, it sure gets sharp.
Thanks for looking.

Yes, Camillus made for Sears. It's in the Kastor List.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
So, here I was again, looking through my upright rolling toolbox for a tool...and I come across this find. I have no idea where this knife came from or how long it's been in the toolbox getting rusty.
It's a 2004 Schrade Badger SP3 w/partial serrated blade. If my research on this knife is correct, it appears this is one of the last knives Schrade made in its factory before they closed in July 2004, Ellenville, NY. It has "100th / 1904 - 2004" etched on the blade. I know it's not worth a whole lot, but I got me a nice user anyway. It's always exciting to 'find' something you didn't know you had.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Found a few this weekend,Western , Harvey Bros pearl whittler, AW Bradshaw Austria deer hoof lockback , unmarked fixed blade and a Barracuda fishing lure box
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Great finds, Knifegnome...that Western is in pretty good shape, but that unmarked fixed blade has a lot of life left to it and will probably clean up nicely.

Nice one! I've been meaning to pick up a partially serrated SP-3. I have a PE Craftsman variant I use a lot. Those serrations cut rather well. I've been using the Cliphangers for them, but they, in my opinion, are really cheaply put together.

Nice assortment. The Western is really sweet.____Daveknifegnome wrote: ↑Mon Oct 12, 2020 12:33 am Found a few this weekend,Western , Harvey Bros pearl whittler, AW Bradshaw Austria deer hoof lockback , unmarked fixed blade and a Barracuda fishing lure box

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Guys,
I picked up this older Puma this past weekend at the show. It was the only purchase I made all weekend.
It is a model 270 with stag handles. Manufacturing date was July 1984. Small sharpening scratches and one little blade hickey that likely will not show in the photos. Also the stamp is very light and will not show. Still, a very nice Puma and it can be yours for the mere amount of $140. Comes with a 'custom' leather sheath.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Thanks and I guess I should have put it in the 'For Sale' section.
I moved it over to the For Sale section.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Hair cut today, asked Miss Joy to go with me as there are 2 antique stores, one on either side of the barbershop up in the next town to the north. Well I was gettin' my ears lowered, she comes in an says, "Both stores are closed, open on Wednesday." So on the way back to our town she suggests we go to the antique mall in our town.
She's looking for an amber glass butter dish, I'm lookin' for knives. She roams around, I go to a booth that has produced before and find the little rotisserie with trays was out of whack. The flood related to Hurricane Sally (14 inches) had flooded the old supermarket building, lots of things out of place, etc. Back to the front and the owner said, "Look over here, I've held these back for you to see." Hmmmmm, 3 Case knives, one price. The 3318 CV is well worn, the Case XX-Changer has a blade that has never seen a whet rock and the Copperhead 61549L lock-back is used. I didn't want the 18 and I don't like the looks of the Changer so I asked what would it take to buy the Copperhead? The price was 1/3 of the total, made my purchase and headed home. I got home and started looking at what I had purchased and got to thinking about the Changer. After going through ebay a bit, I realized I need to go back and see if the deal was still good. It was, so I'm now the proud owner of a pretty nice 2001 Changer with only one blade and a well used 3318. going to see how hard it might be to find the other 3 blades for the Changer. It looks like good trading material for some one who likes that pattern, it doesn't thrill me, kinda like a Russlok in appeal. Treefarmer

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
My fleamarket visits are starting to produce some knives. Found a Case XX 06244 red bone ,a rough cubscout and a Wharncliffe pen about 2 1/8" long with horn handles marked E. Wild & Sons (Ebenezer Wild) that dates about 1850's ,pen blade broken.
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Took a trip to the local antique shop where they are still selling my friend Dave's knives and picked up these three. A Wm. Frankfurth cattle green celluloid, a Big Coke bottle ebony stamped Buhl Sons Co. Detroit Mich., probably made by Ulster, and a Joseph Allen sailors stag with the marlin spike.____Dave
