Scott, I would love to accompany you to one of those Flea Markets some day and watch you do your magic.

That's a good find! Though wet shaving was enjoyable (when I had a good water heater and didn't use a Feather blade), I presently use an electric razor.

Thanks tvic and Dan

Here are some pawn shop pick-ups... or AKA "Pawn Scores"

You and TripleF have all the luck with flea markets, estate sales, pawn shops, and the like! The Ka-Bar is especially appealing, and what is the little red one?

Thanks Dan... I am a sucker for Gerbers and it is a Gerber 400.

Very cool! I haven't owned many Gerbers, but I do enjoy bringing my 625 out on occasion.

I don't know what it is with Feather blades, but even if I use them with the utmost care, they cut me. I found Solingen-made (despite the fact Wilkinson used to be an old Sheffield brand) Wilkinson Sword that are coated, and thus less prone to make my face look like someone who's been in a fight.

But yeah, I've switched to electric too. I have a Phillips Norelco "OneBlade' that I like because it's barely bigger than my Gillette ProGlide.

Scott., knice pickups. I too appreciate the short line.

Nice finds, Scott! Are all three Camillus?

Found this cool little KENT cattle knife yesterday in Pocomoke City,MD. The shop owner knows I'll buy the good stuff so he gave it to me, nice guy!
It's a bit odd as the shield is on the pile side and it has a nice "curly" liner. I've never seen that on a KENT. I always buy them when I see them. They just appeal to me, maybe it's because I loved old-time Dime Stores like Woolworth's when I was a kid. J.O.

Finally got a Purina knife!! Kutmaster, Utica NY USA. My brother in law brought it down from Kansas City MO where he lives. Super shape.

Ya know, there was a box with about 10 of those in it at a swap shop for 2 bucks apiece, I didnt even grab one!! next time of course they were all gone.

buy

I had a hard time finding one so I was tickled to get it. 2 bucks a piece huh. Dang if we only know sometimes huh. Good luck in your search!

Here are a few my brother in law brought me from Kansas City, MO. He came for a visit.

Dang, I never get anything given to me! Maybe I need a brother-in-law!

The GERBER USA GATOR 625 Folding Knife is a true classic! I think it is a real underrated knife.

A Gerber 450, a 80 OT & a #72
