Roger, gorgeous folders even the celluloid :shock: ! Seriously, I own a good number of vintage celluloid knives which are hard to pass on when in excellent condition and showing no signs of outgassing ::nod:: I figure if they are 70, 80, 90+ years old and show no imminent signs I will probably gas out before they do ::woot::

Bill - Ditto all the above - you have some really beauties and the last group is just another great showing ::tu:: ::tu:: ... I really enjoy the variety of knives and makers that you have shown - I sort of have "tunnel vision" in my collecting to a certain degree so seeing a variety of makers is in fact educational for me ::nod::
