Hey Ann;
I received an email a couple days ago from "Ampex Investment" advising me of the new "Robin Hood" coins to be released.
I know you collect Robin Hood knives and "Robin Hood Stuff". It is seldom that I view old Robin Hood knives, and more seldom that I view recent Robin Hood items.
Three separate coins are being produced celebrating the 825th anniversary of the foundation of the Austrian Mint. The 1 oz fine Silver coin’s reverse features the King of Thieves, while the obverse, which is common among all three coins in the 825th Anniversary of the Vienna Mint series, features Leopold V’s equestrian seal.

You can view the coins on the below website.

Thank you! I will check those out. I’ve been interested in the whole Robin Hood legend since I can remember. As a matter of fact, my mom and grandmother read to me every night and I heard the McSpadden version well before I could read.
I’m too young to be this old!

I'm having too much fun today. New in the box old stock Queen (S&M) cotton sampler, a really sweet Case tester pearl split back whittler, a Simmons ebony EZ open jack, a Catt. harness jack, a slot knife with a marking I haven't identified yet (looks like a M with a large C over it and a small C inside that, and a small o inside that. and a Pat. date Nov.5 190 something. I'm guessing Magnetic made by Union Cut. Co. I bought 6 sheaths for $20 that I'm pretty sure I have knives for. I'll have to put the Case in the thread for Case knives and maybe the Catt. in the barehead jack thread.____Dave
DJK, that would be knife finds for the decade for me. What a great group of knives. That Cotton sampler rocks!!! ::nod:: ::nod:: ::tu:: ::tu::

Thanks Scott. Not exactly, but if you like any of those, you’ll more than likely see them in my store in the coming weeks. ::tu::

Always in awe of the knives found at local flea markets by those who post here ::tu::
Inspired, and ever hopeful, I drove down island, through sunshine and Fall colors, to a decent sized flea market and found one vendor with a few pocket knives. Two knives made the trip home with me.
A Premier K97 Stainless Steel Japan swell end jack. At 3 5/16ths and hefty it felt right. It appears unused. I understand that Premier went the way of the Dodo in 1955 and that they had knives made In several countries. Any info on this little brass and wood EDC would be appreciated.
An A. Kastor & Bros. New York single blade knife that is from their pocket Tool Kit. A quick search says 1905 - 1947. Thoughts??
Yours with an unfocused collection,
MT-Vessel

I have something stuck in what serves as my mind that Premier is a UK/Canadian brand. Someone else needs to chime in on this.
That one looks pristine. Good find.

This is what I found on the Kastor List for your A. Kastor. Left click to enlarge to a more readable format.
