All About Pocket Knives

Between 1982-94.........nice one.

Thanks Johnnie

Ok I got the other Imperial in yesterday and finally made it a computer that I could load pics to so here we go...you decide. I myself am more than happy with both as they are both tight, blades snap really good and the bone appears to be in excellent condition. Thanks to those that have provided info on these old workhorses....

Notice one has dark blades, that is after a couple of gun blue paste treatments, the pics do do it justice , but in the light it has a pretty rainbow trout appearance to the metal...something a little different, but it's an edc and that's easily removable if desired.

They both look sweet!!...

Those are great knives greg. I have and old Imperial cattle knife about that age (I guess).
I'll try to get pictures up to show it off.

Well, I got to take pictures of that Imperial. I sure like this knife. I don't want for much more while packing this.
It's sturdy and sharp.

Looks sweet.....nice spear blade.

Sweet FRJ!...I'm digging these ole Imperials. Man I can't wait till Christmas!!!

Here's a Imperial stag scout I won on the bay.....hopefully it will be in my hands in a day or so.

Sweet one JR. ::ENVY::

FRJ
great old Imperial

Johnnie

really nice stag i don't think i have seen a stag Imperial before

johnnie, you went high end there, that's a great looking knife.

greg, here's a couple of nice old Imperials. Somthing to shoot for if you like Imperials. I posted these earlier somewhere.

Tanks Fella's.

Those are some nice ones,Joe.

Yall gonna drive up the price of Imperials on me if ya's don't quit buyin' all up! ...

nice knives y'all.

It happens all the time Greg, I've seen this thing happen at least 5 times over the last few years here.

Good...that makes mine all the more valuable...Bwhahahahaha... ...

nice finds everyone, i just love them older knives myself, i found a camilius stockman with a bullet ccc and 22 hornet in the handle and camilius etched on the main blade with the sawtooth/serrated sheepfoot blade in near mint ,it has one scratch on the main blade but it is slight though, with c2 on the main blade and delrin handles. here are few pics.

Just to let everyone know, I didn't know how to date this Imperial Cell I just won until Phil showed me the Tang post on Imperials, Thanks Phil for helpin a brother out that just didn't know we had that info here. Greg, I used to have that laugh too but then the wife put me on the slow drip, now I just cry a lot and remember how it used to be. Cool Hornet Pes!

Thanks TJ.....boy,that one has some purdy stag also!!

I finally got a chance to load some pics of this past weekends finds. These photos are poor quality because it's like 15 degrees outside and I didn't want to go out this morning....but you get the idea.

1st is a 1985 edition Remington Bullet big muskrat new in box. I gave this to my dad for his 70th birthday friday. made this pic friday and forgot to get one with blades open..sorry

2nd is a Henckels Congress with HellBraun bone scales

3rd is a 1976 Queen #22 Barlow...etching on blade is good, just doesn't show up so well in pic.









again I apologize for the poor pic quality, I'll try to do better next time.
