Good place to start

Post by CobraBill »

Hello from NY, couple hours north of the big city.
I have carried a pocket a pocket knife since I was a cub scout. (long long time ago)
I have looked around a bit, and I'm glad to see some Schrade fans here.
I tried to buy local, plus they made great work knives. I liked the carbon blades for holding an edge.
I'll have some questions, and post a picture or two.
Take care.
Bill

Thank you for the warm welcome.
I have an old Queen's steel "20" toothpick I found 20 or more years ago while I was fishing.
The blade is scratched real bad. I should post a pic in the general knife section?
I bet it could be polished out but you won't be able to read it.
I'll see what advice you all have on it.
I don't have anything real fancy.
I did pick up a Case Fire in Box Doctors knife 1 of 500.
Got a steal on a Kissing Crane KC47 wood handled Stiletto on E-bay NIB.
I have an old 1969 Boss 302 Mustang knife in a tin display box.
I'll have to take a pic of the colection. First I have to find all my knives!!
