Heck yeah you do ("get out and explore the whole site") that is, cause its got really good stuff! You have some really good stuff too.
Thanks for the the pics!
Now take a stab at some of the discussions.
In fact, love to have you start a topic or two. That'd be great. Got some really knowledgeable members a part of this group who will chime in.
Thanks for joining us!

Do I like really old knives? Oh YEAH! A box of office knives...


A really rare Jas. Sefton double Wharncliffe Jack. Made in Sheffield.

And finally, the Coupie DeGrassie... A prehistoric dagger weapon with Bart Simpson's skull carved on the pommel...

I really need to start exploring this whole site. I didn't even know this Vintage American Knife forum was here. And it's the perfect place to show off one of the knives that will be buried with me. Well, maybe not actually BURIED with me. But it will stay in my posession 'till I pass on. It's a genuine Holley Mfg. Wharncliffe Whittler. Made, as near as I can find out, some time in the late 1800's. Holley was arguably America's first full time knife manufacturer. It is in original shape. Almost full, and has never been cleaned as far as I can see. You be the judge...

I think I've found it - this knife looks like an old '22 pattern, as seen in Sargent's 7th ed, p. 48...

Yes character indeed! This knife is 3-1/2" in length; blade is 2-3/4". We're having trouble id'ing the pattern here. Kinda looks like a "skinny" balloon jack...any thoughts?

Cool knife there Fred. Too bad the small blade is broken....just adds to its character, doesn't it? Other than the years reported as the years they were in existence, I couldn't narrow it down beyond that.

What do you think of this ol' honey? It's an ancient Case Brothers - Little Valley Jack knife - any guesses as to its actual age?
