Another great group! Just curious here: the one Copperhead looks like a 1980, but what is the other one?

Imperial Electricians knife with shell handles.....crushed on one end.

Webster wuz kinda of a bust for knives for me , all I found of interest was a book an a bag ot candy. Lots of zombie killers and such. Most of the good stuff Scott got or I didn't need or sumpin.
Found a few at Bevilles up the road that tickled my fancy.

These look nice, bighomer!

Good Job on the 2 Queens! I like the one with the punch. What is the knife at the bottom of the picture, I can't read the stamp?
Bevilles Corner is a lot easier on my old knees. The most memorable find there was an unsharpened Unkle Henry 167 filet knife w/sheath for $5.
Sounds like you're enjoying your ramble around the Sunshine State.

I am Farmer, that bottom knife is a col.coon made by queen I'm thinking, its got a crack in the handle that's hard to see in that picture but it seems stable.

Was literally below freezing when I hit the flea market this morning...see frosty on cat iton pans...then my finds

this blade is hand forged. I got this from the maker. It fits my hand perfect.

This is all I found on my brief outing today.
A S&W Trapper with Ram horn handle and a Schrade Knife Care Kit.
Not sure how old the kit is but my friend I went to see gave it to me.

Nice! ...but I don't like Ram horn handles ONLY because I have had BUG problems with the handles been burrowed and eaten in by them damn ol' bugs!

I understand and to be truthful the handles on this one are not matched very well and they are really rough in your hand. I bought it from my friend as a favor (he's trying to sell my woodburning art) and I am considering changing them out for dark brown wood handles. I just hope I can get the S&W shield out of the horn without damaging it.

I think you have a great knife there. I like that size trapper Good luck with the new dark brown wood handles. I have several S&W folders and a few trappers and stockmen with natural wood handles or bone. I collected S&W paraphernalia for quite a few years. I always liked the brand ever since I was a kid .... back in the "olden times" ...

Found a couple of ole camp knives at bevilles, they need some elbow grease but that will wait till I'm home.

Nice finds, y'all!

Some of the better finds this year... or maybe about the only finds this year... so far... so to speak...

Yes indeed, some good ones in there! The fixed blade looks pretty neat, and who made the fish knife?

Dan thanks! The fixed blade is hand forged by a maker in Arizona. I bought it and a couple of others from him and I might end up buying a couple more... funds withstanding... The fish knife is made in Japan (70's maybe?) with bone scales...a nice little piece

The flea market was stacked with knives today....I got a handful

I'll say you did! Good job, Scott.

That's a great haul, Scott!

Old timer...

Nice lot, Scott!

Like that Old Timer, Dog!
