i love collecting knifes i been a collector for about 20 years. it started when my dad gave my first knife. it was a old timer 4 blade congress it was so sharp i almost cut my finger off cutting twine on a hay bale. i was in a hurry and cut the string with the knife backwards. it clamped down on my finger thats when i started to appreciate knifes.and also lock blades...
Hello Stephen, Thank you for your comment. I do have alot of knives. Most of them are put away in secure storage for pass down to my childern and grandchildren. I had a computer chash last year and it wiped out my pictures that were not backed up. I need to take some new pictires of the knives I keep for display and I will post some of those photos. The ones I keep for display are my best ones anyway.
For the past couple of years I have been collecting antique Japanese swords but I still pick up a Knife now and then. Take care, Mark.
Thanks for your comment. That is the knife that got me started in R.H. Ruana knives. My dad got it in 1945 and gave it to me years later in the 1990's.
Thanks Steve this is more than just a club, it's a felllowship of genuinely caring and extraordinary folks and thank you all for reminding me that the world does still have that rare commodity of exceptional people. Have a great day and THANKS!
Stephen, I agree with you about the Boker Camp knife. To answer your question the Geppetto Whittler feels pretty good in hand. I still prefer the #56 Dogleg Jack's feel though. The little blades cut into the fingers a bit on the #57 and to me it feels a little odd with the big part of the handle up front and the small part in back. If I was using it I guess that I would get used to it but I'm still sold on the #56 instead.
Hey thanks for all of your nice comments on my knives sir! Tom
The blade finished to this point runs $50.00 if it is to be sharpened and base ground 75, mounted in the some fashion to those in the group photo would start at $200.00. In answer to me having a web site, no I’m a country boy just trying to get on line. However if there was a web site builder in the group I do have some trading stock and would like talk to some one about it.
Hey good buddy, why don't you try sell those knives one at a time? I think you will have better chance of selling them that way, instead of all at one time. I know some people will buy one and some others will buy more. Try it that way and see what happens. If you do, I'll take that Viet Nam, folder. Let us know what you think.
Stephen, why not, redo your post and list them one at a time for a price for each one. Let us know what you come up with. I'm sure you'll sell some faster that way. Good luck, good buddy.
When are you planning on going? I think I'm shooting for the early bird special & trying for Friday. I know I will be in town most of that weekend. Maybe we could meet there or grab a bite to eat or something. Let me know & we'll figure it out.
bro, freakin love that eagle pic, (bein an eagle scout and the eagle bein my spirit totem, i've got a bit of a major liking for that kinda artwork lol)
Hi Stephan, Thanks for the comment on my new large Bowie. It certainly is a hand full with a 15.5" blade, but the thing I like about it is how well it is balanced. It really handles very well for it's size. Larry did a great job on this one! Have a great day... Warren - "Lone Wolf".
Hi Stephen, I looked at the middle pin on my knife and it appears to be same material as the other.I also checked a few other wood handle archangels and they had three pins as well,also the rare stag archangel has three pins, so I would say they are made that way. Its does grow on you its one of those knives that you keep coming back to and pretty soon you really like it alot.Thanks for looking Stephen,I'll talk with you later,Carl.
Hi Steve I noticed that I haven't seen your name at my page lately. You should come by and check out my EK commando knife pictures that I just posted. Let know what you think, Carl
