All About Pocket Knives

Great finds Bill, sounds like my kinda day!

I.G.
Nice finds. Case has got my atention with the scrimshawed smooth bone. I might have to start buying new knives again.

It was one of my better days There are days when I strike out, but I still enjoy the people and conversation. There is something about a playday that makes me feel FREE. No work no schedule and no worries.

Ditto Bill, ditto! Cant beat them days. (usually its only one) LOL!

I hear ya Bill, I want as many of those days as my wife will allow. "What's that Honey?? Oh just waiting for your next command Dearest"!

hey gang, got to go to the flea market, found a couple of nice ones,
1. a solingen copperhead greenish stag eyeball, worn main blade,but holds an awesome edge and great snap and no wobble at all.
2. a camco jack with "protect your rights to bear arms" written on it, not a glamorous knife but a great message.
here are a few pics.

I got 2 of these today and found the Boker hiding in a drawer.I believe a member who I do some trade'n with gave it to me.

I'm thinking that Boker ROCKS! Man!

Drool! Envy!

Thanks Dave.

Nice ones Johnnie.

Thanks Gino. .....I'll probably put the last 2 in my trade thread....I like them..but I have so many of the same....ya know what I mean?

I really like the Saddlehorn, Johnny!

very nice , good luck with them

P
Nice old copperhead

Johnnie
That saddlehorn is nice

Thank you Lady and Gentlemen ...
Yeah...I really like the scales on that saddlehorn.

It's been fairly slow lately but the last two weeks have picked up and I got this lot from two shows and a fellow collector that just buys and sells on but doesn't collect anymore.

Wow, nice bunch of knives Robert! Thats a find!!!

Wow is right!!.......done real good. ......after you go through them,I hope you take some close up pics. ..I see what seems to be really old nice knives in the midst.

Thanks! I am sure you will like Rogers. I have a good friend that is a dealer/collector. He actually leaves at 4 o'clock in the morning to get to Rogers on Fridays. He is under the impression that you find all the best knives with a flashlight at the fleamarket before dawn. He is most likely right, but I am not that early of a riser!

It must be really interesting to be a collector in the East. There might be a dozen of us in Wyoming, and no club. The nearest show would be at least 550 miles away, if Denver has one, which it might not. I wanted to go to the Oregon show this year but something came up. I have never been to a show, and it might be just as well; the folks there probably wouldn't like to see a grown man either weeping or slobbering, by turns.

I do feel very lucky to live in Western PA... I really enjoyed the Case knife show in Bradford, PA last year, but it was VERY hard on the wallet. We are hoping Queen has there show this summer, but I haven't heard of any details yet. I am sorry there isn't many shows out your way. What about flea markets or antique stores?

picked up two old ones this week a 1923- 1950 ka-bar peanut, and a mop filmore cutlery , germany which i can't find no information on.

Nice Paul!
I really like that pearl. I have a few but not many that look that good. Nice finds.
