Well done.

Especially with the bone handled aw wadsworth pens. Those are stellar. I see why you scooped em up. Careful with that ice beer though. Sneaks up on yah.

Thanks G-Dogg I can't beat the feeling of being on the hunt for some old pocket knives... looking and looking and then BAM you finally find something really sweet

A few more pick-ups ... and an excuse to sit around on a hot lazy Sunday and drink ice beer and clean up these 'ol knives...

Great score! I suppose that is an old style can opener on the one?

Thanks TWKG!

Sometimes I get lucky ... like today... ... And Yes, ... I do prefer ice cold beer.... ... But....Ice Beer will do if nothing else in on tap or in the fridge...

Wow, you've been on quite a roll and posting some great knives, Dog, I'm enjoying the show and your little Gecko buddy is too cool, please keep on rolling!

I wasnt sure where to post this. This was given to me by a co-worker today.

Not a knife, but knife related.

I'm having a good week Floyd!!

Went to a local indoor flea market on Monday, avoiding tools until I get more organization done.

Found a box of various diecast models, and plucked out a Tonka Bobcat (only made a few years), only to be told they weren't for sale by the person at the front desk.

Kind of beginning to question this place--the box had prices, yet no signs saying "NOT FOR SALE". Supposedly, someone (assuming whoever had rented the booth) bought the pieces at some auction (which also begins to make me wonder what's getting sold under the table); and left everything as-is.

But, I spoke with a guy who's pretty knowledgeable about old knives and tools, and while market, he doesn't sell junk. Picked up a Gerber 600 Magnum LST for $15. The smaller 400, inherited from my great-uncle, sparked my love for lightweight folders, and I have wanted to try the bigger one for quite some time.

I like the fatter handle on this one better, and it's still very slim and lightweight for the size, without being uncomfortable. As with my smaller one, the steel these older LSTs used is excellent.

Pretty sure this is an early example, looking at the stamp.

I have grown fond of the Gecko, and also got some great deals on car insurance to boot

I am pretty amazed at this find... I'm not sure why I got it It was strange... as if some weird inner voice was forcing me to get it... a voice hypnotizing me... almost taking control over my mind!!!

That's a really nice Al Mar 13''er, Dog, I almost bought a copy but couldn't find a non-serrated model, so I settled for their all-metal 9" Secret Service folder, and I'm not sorry I did.

Oh yah, that voice you're hearing in your head,.....well, it's ME!!! Get use to it!
