I do, only have a few but I love them. Lets see your ez pulls. Here is a syracuse I got a while back, it didn't have handles so I put some cow hoof on it.

nice job. is that material nearly transparent?

muskrat man · Post by **muskrat man** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 5:54 am

Thanks, yep it's almost transparent, can you see the rocker pin in the second pic?

jonet143 · Post by **jonet143** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 6:03 am

not a problem. i wonder if you could tint the backside and colorize the material. would look very deep.

I think that would just make it look milkey like or like a home made Cell
that will never shine.

But who knows a color die or spacer or, a liner. But a spacer to cover up that center pin?

Is it real cows hoof?
Some horses shoesman use a black die ?

Yep, it's genuine cows hoof. A thin fiber sapcer would have been the bright thing to use , but I didn't have any on hand. You can dye the material various colors, but I'm not sure what type of dye they use? A fiber spacer along the liners would give it a cool tone I bet, I'll have to try it when I get some more hoof. Fiber spacers, yet another thing to add to my jantz order

I like EZ Pulls quite a bit, here are the couple I have:
Bottom: Marshall Wells "Zenith"
2nd from Bottom: Brantford Cutlery Co.
Top Left: Camillus (Rope Knife)
Top Right: KA-Bar (All Brass, and I actually think this one may have had the blade swapped)

The only easy pull I have is this Queen.

nice ez pulls guys. Here is a NYK co. Got this one at a yard sale.
There was a small chip out of the handle on the pile side, so I tried my hand at patching it, worked out O.K. Still noticeable, but there isn't a hole there anymore.

Well I thought that I would give you all a taste of Pennsylvania. This is the only EZ I own. Albertson Cutlery KANE PA. I doubt that many of you have ever see one from this company as they are somewhat rare. If you have one, please post as I would love to see others. This one was in Knife world also. I think it is extremly well made and a heavy piece. Smooth black handles and in exellent condition. They just don't make them like this any more.

That does look like a really well built knife, I like that.

Here is one that is well built, but it's another from NY. An ulster that I rehandled with slabs I got out of a large knot that was on a maple branch, real nice grain.

In case you haven't soticed, I like to buy broken knives and fix them up

Got this in the mail today.

muskrat man · Post by **muskrat man** » Wed Dec 13, 2006 11:08 pm

great looking little knife, who made it?

Gmarcus · Post by **Gmarcus** » Wed Dec 13, 2006 11:26 pm

The tang stamp reads Imperial Prov. R.I.
Pretty old ,but I like it.

That is a cute one Lobo.

That is an old imperial if it has solid bolsters.

I have a tiny one lying around here somewhere, only about 1" long, It needs a bit of work, but nothing I can't handle

Gmarcus · Post by **Gmarcus** » Thu Dec 14, 2006 12:19 am

It has solid bolsters and steel liners. At least the liners look like steel.
I think these were WW2 issue, but maybe someone knows for sure.

El Lobo · Post by **El Lobo** » Thu Dec 14, 2006 12:25 am

I wish it had solid bolsters...

Oh, maybe you meant Gmarcus' knife?

Anyway, I've been accumulating some smaller pen knives and the like lately...come to think of it, I don't know where they're all coming from...

...maybe they are reproducing

...nah, some nice people are helping me, and I guess they just looked like fun to own.

Good thread Kaleb. You are almost getting to be too talented and diversified, to just be the muskrat man.
