Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Picked this beauty at a yard sale last Thursday. Was tossed n a box of 30 or so beat up knives. Box was marked $5 each, I couldn’t pay fast enough! So 5 bucks ( see what I did there) for the knife , a nickels with of polish and oil, a paper towel and my lunch break turned it back into the carried but never used knife you see here!

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
That is a good looking knife CHN. For $5 it is a great find.
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
That is a beauty, CHNeal To find a 72-86 almost mint 319 in that good of shape for five 'bucks' is amazing. It's a keeper for sure.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Thanks guys. I don’t usually get that lucky. I have some great knives but I’ve had to search them out, not have them drop in my lap.Quick Steel wrote: ↑Mon May 25, 2020 3:43 pm That is a good looking knife CHN. For $5 it is a great find.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Went to the park after the flea market.....here's my finds...
The Western is nice but dangles open when turned upside down. The folding bowie is made in Japan.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Found this Schmidt & Ziegler , 3 5/8" Congress, fancy bolsters and a Bull shield and good snap on the blades.The space between the liner is because the entire knife has a bend to it ,liners ,backsprings and bone handle are bent.Tried to get that in the last photo.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
knifegnome,
That's an interesting knife! Looks like it has been in someone's pocket for a while.
What is the reasoning behind a knife with that shape?

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I'm guessin' here but I wonder if, because of the shape of the bolsters, the knife could have been used for a bicycle Tire iron (tyre Lever). Might explain the bend as well. Thanks

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I have no real ideas about the bend but Schmidt & Ziegler had some of the best ever carbon steel.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I have a really nice Catt whittler that had a bend in it and my repair guy tried everything he knew to straighten it and finally took the scales off and put them back on and it straightened out.____Dave
Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Hey Scott...here's a merchandising statement you can use to promote the Western knife.
The Western Dangler, a unique and rare concept in knife opening solutions. This knife has a quick 'upside down' opening technique that is so fast that; just a flip of the wrist will have it locked into position and ready for use. Don't hesitate on this one, for it won't last long.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Finally able to get away and look for blades.
I friend had saved these for me.
An old straight razor stone from St. Louis.
A nice old Case box.
And a broken Daddy Barlow XX. The pivot spring was
Broken, but I have plenty of brass stock.
All oiled up, and straight into the pocket!
A good day.

The one with the red striped handle is pretty cool.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I like that stone, Tony. I am not a razor collector, I do have a couple from Shapleigh and Simmons but I was totally unaware of this St louis company until just now.
