Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
the wife has said in the past "Will you please quit buying all this old crap! We can't afford it." I replied " As soon as you cancel the cable television and quit wasting money on vacations." I'm still buying knives and tools. She's still planning vacations. 
I measure my collection by the ton.
Whoever dies with the most tools wins......Now accepting donations.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Those older Sabres are great. I have some USA and Japan ones.
GCC maybe on that switch??? Thats the most common I think. Nice either way though!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Thanks, guys. Another one of Bret's finds. He is always on the lookout for Kabars. Kabar is one of his favorite companies.

Is there a book or other document that would help to date KABAR and kabar knives?

Tongue, I believe that was Goins book Gino posted. That stag reminds me of this one, another of my favorites. I seem to have a lot of favorites....

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I don't know why I didn't look in my Goins (duh), but thanks for pointing me towards my bookcase, Gino. 
Meanwhile, here are two that sorta illustrate my diverse interests. The Buck was given to me by my son on a umm... birthday, to my great shock and delight, back in 2006, and actually is the first knife I owned (and I have had a number that were just tools to me) that piqued my interest and was a launchpad for insanity in the first degree.
The other knife, a GEC Northfield, is pretty different. I also like.... oh shucks; almost everything old and lots of new. I even like yellow ones, Ken!
