KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY

[Papa Bones]

This is the barrel knife that was in the box of knives I got at the flea market.
Segerstrom Eskilstuna Sweden,1864-1925 , 3" barrel. This is the first barrel knife I have owned, The carved handle must not be common all the ones on the bay are the smooth burl.

A great find for sure.

Orange is fine but I don’t care for it with the green blade….it would look great with a black blade..

I am all about color Jamie!!!

Came a few days ago, Kephart knife made by Ka-Bar. I love the knife but wish the handle was a little fatter and more profiled.____Dave

Scott,
Looks like Webster treated you well this morning!
Is the knife with the Daisy shield a Schrade/Uncle Henry?
Seems like I haven't been there in a year or so.

Nice haul Scott. Does the little Scandinavian Kinfe have a brand name stamped on it?

Picked up a ESEE 4, never sharpened but carried so the owner said…When you can find these used it’s a great idea to get them and still with factory grind… I’m proud of it…well colors are somewhat scary, I may need to get some different scales…

That’s extra nice! Out me down as a fan of the orange too! And an ESSEE is always special.

I have a 3, a couple 4s and a izula II and they are all fine fixed blade knives.

Just picked up this Voos for $5. It was pretty hammered. Took a bit of cleanup, but turned out okay. Can’t quite get all the scratches out of the steel without hurting the integrity. Good EDC now though.

Some nice finds Scott. Especially like the Camillus and the Daisy. With warmer weather creeping in, I need to get up to two of the larger Trade Days north of me. But, I did go by a smaller flea market just up the highway from me Sunday and Picked these two up.

First is a Kingston U.S.A. 3-1/2" trapper. It needed some cleaning, so did the warm oil soak, then steel wool on the blades. It looked like it had set for a long time without being used, or oiled. As you can tell by the dark areas on the blades, it did have some surface rust. But, all blades are tight, Very good snap on the master clip blade, and strong snap on all the others. Brown composite handles do have a little shrinkage, but are tight. Still a great little EDC and I believe the Kingston U.S.A. tang stamp was used up to 1958 and was made by Ulster.

Next is a Craftsman 9502 4" Stockman. It is from the Craftsman ACA series and the 9502 was only produced two years, 1972 & 1973. In 1974 the tang stamped number changed to 95025. It has black delrin handles which are milled, and has a Oval Brass Shield with an American Eagle with banner. The A.C.A. Edge etch is missing from the master clip blade, but all blades are full, tight and has excellent snap. Blades are spotted with some scratches, but again will make a great EDC, plus a model I didn't have in my Craftsman family. They both were cheapies ($30 for both) but I think they turned out well.

A nice one buckshot.

It does but it is so small I can't make it out. I'll send you a PM with photos.

Recently we made a quick trip to celebrate an aunt's 95th birthday in Virginia. Great time and celebration. While there she gave me a couple of her departed's knives. A Robeson Grandaddy Barlow he had in his shop and a little Santa Fe Stoneworks they had bought on vacation Treasures both.

Nice work, both finding it and the clean-up.____Dave

I rescued this little Lobster Pen from the 127 Yard Sale this past fall. Got it from a box of junk knives for $1.00. It is three and a quarter inches closed. Each blade is marked (Miller Bros. Meriden). The bone is really pretty. My camera does not do it justice. I think it is the only Miller Bros. in my collection.
