All About Pocket Knives

I was too

its a straight out the box #14 so I think it will improve with a bit of work

The Rodgers has an almost convex edge to it that just seems to work - I only stropped it when I got it and it was shaving hair

The GEC with a light strop didn't shave hair out the box - with a bit of work it will. Then the real tests can start

The GEC does beat the Rodgers for confort of use but thats only because the scales are a little thicker - not that I would but if the Rodgers had new scales I don't think it would ever leave my side

I enjoy seeing the Rodgers knives! I have one but would love to find more.

Mike that is one beautiful knife

Mike - That’s a stunner and if you were only going to have one that is it - beauty of a whittler

Beautiful knife, Mike.
Love those little whittlers.

Thanks guys. It's got a pin crack but otherwise pretty good. Took a steady hand to grind those blades!

Oh Gezz a pin crack you better send that baby to me it should not be anywhere near the other beauties you have Mike

Great to see you again S-k
Lovely knives of the highest quality everyone.

Wake this thread up, added a very nice Rodgers stag pen knife, I would say little to no use, 3 1/4", does have one crack in stag that is tight and hard to see. Marked Cutlers To His Majesty and #6 Norfolk St, so I think it is pre WW2.

Beautiful knife , John! Great stag!

Great knives guys.

Here is my latest. It's 3" closed. I love the sunk joints, they made a great knife!!

- Mike - That Rodgers knife is KILLER ... What a beauty in a Norfolk whittler in all ways ...

Mike, that thing is absolutely beautiful.

Congratulation on taking ownership of that one.

WOW ! Mike i believe that is the famous Rodgers "Norfolk" pattern. What a great find. Top manufacturer, best pattern, and the very best stag. Wow !

No problem Mike, did not expect to get it for my high bid but had to try, figured a knowledgable collector would know how rare and desirable it was, congratulations on acquiring such a great rare knife!

Thanks John
