Bresman has that ability to drop a few nuggets in with the grit. And there is no lack of volume. Love the Morley.

Beresman has played this game before, I see he’s an old pro at it!!! Came home to a stench so bad the yard man said he’ll have to come back another time!!! As the definition of POS rolled out one piece at a time, couple things caught my eye. An old tuxedo WH Morley, a decent Wenger and a Queen trapper. However there is a Swiza in the exact configuration I’ve been eyeballing and haven’t pulled the trigger on yet!!!! Thank you sir!!!! (Which reminds me I gotta send out a package!) Thanks again to Kolvir for managing this mess!
Glad there was something useful in there for you! By the way, I believe the Remington Nehi (short blade and all) is an original, from everything I have read about it.

Received my POS box from HerbVa. Herb truly knows how this exchange is done and provided me with some real stinkers and ammo for next year. Several keepers in the mix that I'll clean up and toss in my pocket, for they have a lot of life left in them, and they're just right for any small work that might need taking care of. The large Case Hunter will be used in household duties and projects. I enjoyed going through this bunch, Herb. Thank you for another memorable POS year. ::handshake:: ::tu::

Nice group!

PS: I always have a boot lace (paracord won't fit) through my Folding Hunter's lanyard hole, and the knife is always carried on my belt in a sheath. The lanyard is then tied to my belt itself. Bit more security than probably necessary, but mine's been in the family 50 years.

PS: what's the little silver handled knife above the Coke knife? The lines kind of remind me of a few Vernco ones I've got kicking around.

Haha, Herb did it wrong. The 3 posts above mine in response to Ken's pile reads more like when TripleF chums the waters in KFOTD thread than the yuck response a pile of poo should induce.

The UPS man just dropped a 4 lb box of stuff for me from cody6268. Wow, some good stuff too, including my first Moore Maker knife. Also included was several pocket clip lockblades, a Rough Rider whittler, a couple of Stan Packys, a nice Atech multitool, a couple of rebuilders, and a couple of parts knives. Thanks Cody.

Herb's POS is of a different level than mine. A lot of interesting knives there.

Had to run the buzzards of the mailbox this afternoon! I found inside the mailbox besides a Florida Farm Bureau hurricane declarations, blah, blah, blah...., a letter from NRA-PVF wanting $ and a suspicious box from tony111.
Found a manufacturer name that was new to me, JOHNSTON in an arch over USA with interesting green handle with sparkles in it.There is an interesting old Schrade barlow with a few laps left in it. Out of the dozen pieces, one really got my attention. I looked and thought could this be a Camillus 72? The main blade would open, the other 2 were stuck, the pile side handle looks like it has been in the sun for a few years. Got a bit of the rust off the tang and found it is a POWERCRAFT. With a bit of TLC this one will come back to life making a great EDC for someone who likes a smaller knife. Tony also included some Case stickers and usable knife roll.

Floyd,
Back in the old Corps, we learned to improvise. I used the tipped 125OT as a knife pick to open the blades on the 72 wannabe, the big folding hunter blade will be reshaped and then grind the kick so the tip will be below the frame, it'll make a dandy skinner. :)

Cody - The silver knife is "Japan" on the tang and "stainless steel" on another. That's all the information there is.

Jody - The knife you're asking about is stamped "Simmone Hardware Co." That's all there is.

Scale Military. - The knife you're asking about is an Ulster with a broken blade.
