Thanks David

So, I bought that little fixed blade for myself....it was allegedly made by hand by s dude named Michael (i have his card her somewhere) and was
offered @ $19.00. I scooped it up in a heartbeat. We'll see how it goes.....I carried it to the park and I wasn't happy with the sharpness....

I’d be having fits if I hadn’t recently been bombed with the identical Richards, Richard!

There’s my one little treasure from Sunday. It’s a Premier Germany, tempered with three stars on the tang. The handle is reasonably decent. It’s right in my size range anyway. I didn’t actually look, but I’m pretty sure the blade is a mate for my Boy Scouts of Canada knife, which is actually made in England. Hmmm

Nice one Ann!Looks like the size of a bird and trout knife.
Here are a couple I got today.First one is a serpentine pen with bone handles and a California clip master blade.The stamp(if there ever was one)isn't readable.
The second one is a Utica arched stamp(pre-1937)equal end pen with tip bolsters and nice faux pearl handles.Paid $8 for both of them. Did a bit of repair work on the serpentine handle(not perfect but useable)and cleaned up the blades.Think this one will see some pocket carry;I really like the clip blade.

Ann, another triumph!!!
K7K a couple of very knice pick ups. And good job on the repair.

Thanks Dan. I hadn't heard that and would have really been bummed out if I had driven clean across Wisconsin to find no show. I went last year and, though the show was relatively small at least compared to the Janesville show,, I did really well finding stuff I really liked. It's scary that our hobby is slipping away and we may end up getting too old to keep collecting with a pile of knives and no way to sell them. At least I found a few locally to tinker with. Have fun in Wisconsin and hope you get out before next weekend. They are forecasting snow around here. ____Dave

I was kind of bummed out that it was cancelled as well. Woke up to 2" of snow in Minot yesterday morning and very ice packed highways. At least Minot was on the edge. The highways were clear by 60 miles out and it was smooth sailing all the way home. For knife content, here is an I.K.Co. shell handled boys knife I picked up at an antique mall in Madison.

Went to the indoor range today and shoot up a couple of hundred rounds of .357 & 9mm, but of course I had to shop for a few knives at the Pawn Shop. Here are 4 that they just couldn’t wait to get out of the store.

Top left: Imperial DE; Top right: Case Stockman 1976
Middle: Fight’N Rooster, Frank Buster, Solingen Germany: “FIRE and BRIMSTONE 1992 1 of 800 #211
All I have found out with a quick check this afternoon is there were 3 Fight’N Rooster stock knives from the 90's: Ramblin’ Rose 1990; Wild Card 1991, and Fire and Brimstone 1992. The knife appears to be very well made; stainless steel blades, brass liners; Nickel/Silver bolsters; Celluloid handle?; and stainless pins and shield. I paid $25 for it, but I have no idea what the real value might be.

Bottom: This is a Muskrat with absolutely no markings anywhere. The only thing is the bolsters remind me of one of Mr. Frost’s products like maybe the Steel Warrior brand. It might be a knock off I don’t know, but you wouldn’t believe how well made it is and with that green dotted handle one of my grand daughters will love it.

Dan, the guy we are building for right now lives in Fargo and he called me today. They are getting dumped on today and just across the boarder he said they got 3 feet. We got flurries that didn't even show on the ground. I'm glad you got through without hitting the mess. ______Dave

I'm pretty confident that the serpentine is a Western by the color, shape, jigging and Calif. Clip. ____Dave

So, here’s a real “find”!
My co worker found it sitting at the top of our dumpster. Nobody seems to know anything about it, so it followed me home!
It’s pretty loose, but the scales are intact. I like it!

For many years I carried a little Swiss Army Knife that included a sharp blade & a phillips screwdriver. I think that was most useful knife I have ever carried!

That was my thought also Dave;thanks for the reply.I don't recall anyone wlse using that California clip on such a small knife.

Added a few to the 29 type pile ,also an ole wore out boys knife.

Just in!
