The online community of knife collectors, A Knife Family Forged in Steel

Knives from Dad.

My Dad lives and works in the Memphis area. He has a knack for refurbishing antique clocks among other complicated antiques. Recently he received some knives in a barter to fix a friend's clock. He kept one and sent me these 3.

2 AG Russell knives and a Kershaw Double Duty.

Well, he normally carries a small Schrade stockman. But, he is not a collector of knives. He has not told me what he kept, as he doesn't really know what he gave me. I said thank you very much and left it at that.

I'm really diggin' that Micarta-handled AG. But I've always liked that Kershaw too, not really sure why I never picked it up, it was eminently affordable...

3-1/2" closed length, 2-11/16" blade and weighing in at 1.2oz. The Horn is my favorite of the 2 AG Russells. The Carbon fiber handle knife is also 3-1/2" closed, 2-3/8" blade but weighs in at 1oz and doesn't feel as refined as the Horn.
