Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Great scores! That MTech ought to be a good cheapie just to beat up on. Really like the tanto shape. You always see Camillus or Imperial Demo knives (and occasionally Ontario, who were the last to make them, only discontinuing them 4-5 years ago), but rarely Schrade.TripleF wrote:Knice scores fellas!!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I picked this one up at the Bastrop Show on Saturday. It is a Randall model 11 with a 5 inch blade. Pretty much mint except that the knife has been stored in the sheath.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Not as good looking as the one Ray got on Saturday, but on my way to the shooting range I stopped into a local Pawn Shop. I looked through their plastic bucket of old knives and found these three, the price was more than right!
The top one is a Winchester large Trapper in very good shape except the shield has fallen off. The middle one is stamped on the main blade "Wild Turkey" Hand Made and on the tang Solingen Steel. The bottom one is a Case XX USA, but the two X's appear to have been struck twice, one set on top of the other. I will have to clean it up a little and try to get a maginfied picture of it.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
This is about a month late. A friend gave it to me and I kept forgetting to post it.
It’s more of a box cutter than a knife, I guess. It’s in pristine shape. The ones I found when I looked it up seem to be quite old - ‘50s/‘60s.
As you can see, it’s pretty much a fancy holder for a single edged razor blade.
I assume the “Coca-Cola” logo would up the price, not that it’s for sale.
Kinda cool!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I wish! I quite neatly missed the Fifties by exactly one month. Sixty is lurking just the other side of Christmas, and when I see it, I’m gonna smack it with a chair until it goes away!

That was said with just a touch of sarcasm, Sam. Or maybe more than just a touch although it was totally in fun.

60 isn't so bad but not looking forward to 70.
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
samb, it's not as bad as you might think.
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
The first 70 is the hardest. After that it's all downhill. ____Dave
