All About Pocket Knives

Nice finds Kathy. Sweet candy stripe TC. I didnt get to make it to the market today but seeing someone else do good makes me feel better

very nice kathy, im loving those candy stripes

Kathy,

Really like that Beet. I have to admit though, I thought to myself...What could this one be called? 2/3rds Congress, 1/2 Swell center Seriously, It is really nice, is it ivory?

Just got these 2 in today. Cards from Hammer Brand knives! 1939 and 40'
I'll have to replace the twine on the 39' card, it just falls apart in the hand.
Note the 3 spaces at the top are already torn into.

Perry...those are cool.

Perry, very nice looks great

Perry, sure would love to get a few dozen of those at that advertised price! (30 cents!)

Just picked these up. A pair of Case Tested electricans knives.

The bottom knife appeals to me the most....... No bail, nice, and that oval shield is mighty nice.

And what a great spear blade. And four pins in the scales. Nice knives knife-nut.

Thanks guys, I'm with ya on that Blue!

KK, those are sweet! i have a ton of different electrician knives from just about every maker but no Case! ::envy::
Nice ones Perry!

Last few weeks have been a bit lite. I haven't gotten out much and the wife has taken an interest (not a positive one)in my activities. at any rate here's the last few weeks worth that I haven't posted yet. They haven't been cleaned up yet but aren't really bad.

Nice finds. What is the third from the left in the bottom pic?

Turtle shell scaled Venture I think. It's either that or a T. Ellin Vulcan. I haven't cleaned the tang stamp off enough tell yet.

Iron. in the top picture, the rigging knife, is that a John Watts by any chance? Thanks.

Nice knives all.

Its a Redge, Sheffield, I think I do have a John Watts though. These are Girl Guide or boyscout knives over here as well as being rigging knives.

I'm pretty sure one of these is a John Watts. They are a common brand and made a lot of my advertising knives.

Unfortunately this box was empty. Do any of you fine souls have a picture of what an Ibberson model 3136 might be? This box apparently held 2 Dozen.

wonder if this is the same company

Eggington is one of the few knife companies left in Sheffield. They have purchased the trade marks of the other companies as they went out of business. Ibberson went out of business during the mid eighties.

Great lookin box even with anything inside. I love seein the old boxes.

One of today's finds. C.T. Skelton & Co., Sheffield. The pile side is stamped ENGLAND.

Nice pruner IH, those handles are hard to find on a pruner.
