JUST KNIVES

[Gone2Three]

Nice looking knife but I'm not a fan of that kind of opener though. Guess you got to take the good with the bad.

Thanks, that's for sure... it's a good looking knife, just not for everyone though :Shrug:

Still getting used to the opening of it, hate to have to open in a hurry if a bobcat was getting ready to pounce :AGGHH: :laugh:

Home from work now, a parcel arrived today so I did some therapeutic knife cleaning to unwind from my day.

This was one of two knives picked up together as a bundled deal. The other is not worth saving and is in the trash due to out gassing...but this one was well worth the rescue!

An early 40's Camillus Sword brand jack knife. It's got some blade loss as to be expected from a knife this old. But the look of the pocket worn bone scales is what got me

Nice Randall... I like it!!!

It’s definitely has high mileage ..... Nice bone

 

[BillR]

I agree with Frank. Good looking bone.

You guys.... If I had known these old knives would be collectibles one day I would have snatched up every one I saw at my grandfather’s old farm, my daddy’s house, the old mechanic’s shop, the airplane hangar, the old hardware store displays.... they were scattered all about - in drawers, tackleboxes, toolboxes, backside of old workbenches...gheesh.... had no clue. So many of these old knives look so familiar from those places and times...

Apparently Grindworx had a photo of the M&P knife as well, the M&P was the one I wanted, with the safety. Called Grindworx, they cancelled the Smith & Wesson and ordered the M&P ... difference was $2.10 so they just discounted it that amount. Here's what it really is

While I may not have a collectable knife, I do have one that would make someone :Crap: them self. Frost Cutlery makes it and Walmart sells it.

True Dat .... it would get my attention.

They don't have to be collectable. Anything sharp & pointy is good here.

That thing is BAAAD. :clapping:

Don't let Kaden see that, or Randall will have to GET it for his birthday.

Thanks you guys, didn't pay much for it after all so I was pleased with it. Looking at it as a rescue effort :laugh:

Yeah Carla, there's many a time that I've wished for a time machine to travel back into the past to do just that. Who knows what these old knives will be worth in the next 20+ years from now

Dang Fuzzy, that's a nice one :clapping:

Kind of reminds me of my old fixed blade boot knife from back in a day

Yep, that's exactly the kind of knife he likes... Walmart you say (Thinking) :laugh: might have to take a gander

I'm not a knife person per say....I have a few laying around 'I just recently bought a Gerber Strong-arm Fix Blade [Made in the USA] just to carry in the woods...

But i have one that I'm really fond of....

And it comes with a story...

Back in 1956 i save my nickels and dimes ....And that took quite a while to save enough, I can't remember what it cost but i'm thinking it was a lot , I ordered it from the Shooters Bible....And it like every thing orders back then took 6 or 8 weeks to get it..

Its a fixed blade 7 inch with bone handle , Made in Stoeger Germany ....

Model Stoeger Zephyr.....I carried it till 1965....Put it away for years, And 3 years age i was rummaging through the back of my gun safe next to my fathers old fishing/hunting knifes, And a ratter large switchblade knife?? i'm thinking he carried it just in case cause he would go fishing off of bridges at 3 am in Brooklyn/Queens alone...

But i digress , When i found it i showed it to my Grandson...And i said if you take care of it 'Its yours....And carries it in the woods like i did...That knife is 63 years old...And he did have to hand make a new leather sheath for it the original one was worn out.....
