Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Thank you all, very much, for your comments. I know these covers aren't for everybody.
These knives are very thin. They just disappear in your pocket, and they are really solid knives that take a fine and lasting edge. Thanks again.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Out working in my sales territory yesterday and stopped into a hardware store to get local directions. Looked over the knife display and found one Case that was marked very low - asked if the price was right and the young man told me "yep, we found some older ones in the stockroom and that is the price". So I picked up this Mini-Copperlock for $28 - not stealing it, but $20 less than the others he had in the display case - I was pretty pleased.

Deep in the guts of most men is buried the involuntary response to the hunter's horn, a prickle of the nape hairs, an acceleration of the pulse, an atavistic memory of his fathers, who killed first with stone, and then with club...Robert Ruark

Here is my latest find which I aquired today at an estate sale. It's a Sears lockback, model # 95415. It's an older knife but is in excellent condition. The blade is stainless, a Turkish clip. Thank's for looking, Dale

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
OH - Call a cop 'cause you stole that Mini-Copperlock. I wouldn't mind haveing one of those myself.
Gino - What sweet little petunia. How could Dale part with it.
I was drooling my way through eBay this morning and came on this Wards Power-Kraft with five minutes to go and only one bid for the minimum. I took a chance and sniped it for two bucks more than the minimum and sure enough the bidder had gone short. Another half dollar stacked on the bid brought it home. I'm pretty sure it's a #72 Camillus made for Wards in the '50s (?) or '60s (?). I'm basing my guess on the sabre ground main blade. Let the waiting begin.
