Finds this weekend...
The Shur Snap is pretty but moody....works, then it doesn't. Then you can't open it, then it opens part way.

Found today at the flea market. Is this normal for a baby Butterbean to have a pattern stamp on each blade that is different? Master reads U.S.A. 62132 ss. And other reads 32132 cv. May be common. Just never seen it before.

Found this Mastercraft at the flea for 2 bones.

Right now it walks and talks like my uncle taking a field sobriety test, but I bet it it'll shape right up with some removal of neglect. Whatever the imitation french ivory is made of its shrinking but not causing any damage to the blades. Would be a good rehandle project if i was confident enough to double through-pin a shield. The coined liners and slant bolsters make this a worthwhile save for sure.

I've come to believe knives migrate north. Maybe i only found one because so few of them make it past Florida on their journey ::shrug::

Picked this up up from the bay. Received it today and was surprised. From the pictures, no I didn’t read the entire description, I thought it was white plastic (?) and only one blade. Turns out to be 2 blades and SS, made in Poland with “Gerlach” stamp on the pile side of the pen blade. Seemingly unused, unsharpened and with great snap on both blades. Though it is not a “Hudson” branded knife, it does have my surname printed in the advertising. I guess I shouldn’t be so excited, and verbose, about a sub $10 knife.

Thanks. I was actually searching for a "Hudson" branded knife, but couldn't resist this one at the price.

A friend found this, most likely at the trade lot or some where. Any idea on age/dating. Im thinking early 1970s.

Day 2 of our Missouri trip.
Schrade Classic Collectable Lockback
Roper Trapper
MAIN KNIVES Framelock
Roper Sodbuster Lock
Imperial Kamp King Utility
Pocket watch for my youngest son to work on.
It seems like many dealers have the popular brands priced 2 or 3 times their actual value. Then the no name or lesser known brands are almost a give away.

I guess this would be the place to post this. Its USA made but that's all I can tell. Maybe someone can tell me the brand. It was in a box of junk knives I had laying around. It's inexpensive buy the way it was made. But I fixed it today repining the blades to take all the play out cleaned out all the rust on the metal liners and put it back together. It has great snap, and the carbon blades hold a great edge. Just wanted to know who made it. So, to me it's a great knife find for today. ::uc::

Any help to identify the maker would be appreciated.
