All About Pocket Knives

895's, 899, 855's (one's a Razor Blade) and a Primble 913... all from the recent acquisition... I like this size for EDC.

I like that one with the Coast Cutlery etch!

I was thinking the same thing Glenn

I figure that one was made in the 50's or 60's. It has some tarnish spots on the blades but it looks to have been used very, very little, if at all... and all the blades looks to still have their factory edge.

I like it! I used to buy from Coast when I managed the cutlery store. They are in Portland Oregon!

After 1960 but before 1973.

I like the 855 size best for carrying too. Been carrying a 58OT lately but I have a one time sharpened, otherwise mint, 855 waiting a turn in my pocket. You have some pretty ones. Here are some of mine.

Very Nice

Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

If you see anything in my group I need to know about, please share... I'm in learning mode.

Nice collection

Man that 825 is NICE

If you are referring to the bone handled one with the odd shield, yes! I consider it a real jewel in my little collection. I have kept an eye out for another one like it but I haven't seen one yet. I have no idea what the story is on that one. But it's the real deal, for sure. Here are the auction pictures of it before I wiped it off with some non-abrasive, ammonia based metal polish to remove oxidation. The Schrade Walden MoorMan's 825 is my second favorite in my little 825 collection. It came special ordered with a mirror polish on all the blades, polished springs and plain brass liners. MoorMan's is a large livestock feed and supplement supplier. I got lucky!

Tracy, you have some knives in that group...that 4th picture down sure looks familiar. When you get tired of that SW 825 with the crest shield let me know.

Yep, that little 855RB with the 'Stainless' shield is the one I got from you.
My latest premium stockman is this 895. I waited a long time to get one this nice.
