Another acquisition this past weekend at an Estate Sale.  The knife is marked American Knife, Germany on one side of the tang and Sabre, Soligen on the other.

Very nice.  Thanks for supporting the NRA. I like my rights.

 I wish I had the rest of that barn. In my opinion ,there is no material as beautiful for  knife scales or pistol grips than  good old   wood.

I attended the Friends of the NRA banquet this weekend in Amarillo, TX and won the bid for the 2012 Knife of the Year.  It is a drop point skinner made by Canal Street.  The handle is American Chestnut,, an extinct species, and the display box is from a barn of some historic value.  I will have to take a picture and get it posted.

Here's a Pal Cutlery knife I recently found on ebay.  I believe it to be a Pal Jack Electrician's Knife.

So here's another knife out of my "Bakers Dozen" box of knives.  I forgot I took it out.  So I bought a package of 10 junk knives and actually received 14.  Such a deal!

I like this one a lot.  Kind of a mini-Bowie knife.  When I first saw the little round design in the handle I thought it was a Boker tree.

Close inspection showed it to be a working compass.  Pretty cool little feature.

The knife is 4 1/2" long with a 2 1/2" blade.  There are no markings of any kind on this bad boy.  And it doesn't appear to have ever been sharpened.  It's like some guy built himself a knife and just left it in the build status, never finished it up.

Maybe it was meant for a kid??  I've never seen one like this but I don't collect fixed blades or home-mades.  I just wind up with a few here and there.
