A CHALLENGE for you.
Re: A CHALLENGE for you.
Here's my only Challenge. Wish I had a bucket full of them. A nice little tipped bolster sleaveboard. 3 1/16"
Still a very solid knife.
You guys have some beautiful knives. Thanks for sharing and thanks for looking.

Re: A CHALLENGE for you.
Funny thing about Challenge knives. Up until about a year and half ago, you could buy 'em all day long for around 30 bucks for a REALLY nice one.
Times have changed.
Maybe I need to think about selling off some.

Re: A CHALLENGE for you.
I've got a big ol Challenge jack that I EDC. Snaps like a bear trap and keeps an edge.

Re: A CHALLENGE for you.
Sadly, I don't own a single Challenge knife........yet. You guys are sure showing up with the goods and I appreciate you sharing them with the rest of us. Those are great examples of some fine old American made cutlery.

Re: A CHALLENGE for you.
Here's big old jack, over 4" closed. Re-pinned somewhere back in the day. Tight as drum and snaps like its supposed to.
It still had pocket fuzz and pieces of grass inside it when I got it. Looks like blood stains on the main blade.

Here is a neat old Challenge lockback, it is missing the folding guard, but I still like the knife.

Re: A CHALLENGE for you.
And another one comes slidin off the ol conveyor belt of financial missgivings.
Aw, but it's a duuuuzy.
And instantly one of my favorites. 3 1/2", with half stops, and brass liners. I'm giddy!
Now lets see.........where did I put that stone.............
