Thanks guys.
Today, I recieved from Paul of paulsvintage, three very nice knives. Paul sent me many items because he couldn't fit them into his new liveng quarters. I'll try to disperse them in various threads. A lot of cool stuff. Thanks Paul.
A great Camillus. A yellow Saber, and a cracked ice Hammer. These two are virtually in new condition.

I believe Boker made both brands but that Hen and Rooster stamp is odd to say the least.

Today's haul. the guy I got most of them from said he's got another 100-150 at home and he's supposed to send me some pictures. Apparently someone broke in and stole most of his collection years ago and he's turned to selling tools and finally decided to sell off the rest of his folders so I might get lucky. :mrgreen:

I'll probably take pictures of all of them tomorrow or Monday. Hopefully I 'll remember to post them. The sun's going in now and my indoor pictures look horrible.

got this at the flea market today,just came up to the guys table as another guy was putting it down,asked how much,guy said $5,guy that put it down watched the transaction like he was wondering what he missed.Had alot more rust and a slight bend(took the chance and got most of it out)and took off most of the active rust with a rust eraser,then found out what it could have been worth.Wasnt a fan of Toothpick till' I got this one.

Thanks IH. Some really splendid catches. Are those reasonably priced (from a US point of view)?

Sometimes knives are more and sometimes they are less over here. The collecting habits over here are radically different and many are rather secretive. The antique dealers are rather outrageous sometimes since they've seen one knife bring a lot of money they will try and gouge for all of them. For that bunch I did get a good deal though. It's hit and miss. you also have to keep in mind that a dollar is only worth 60 cents over here but everything that costs a dollar in the US costs a pound over here.
