    Hi Jim, silly question... did you at live in Eau Gallie Florida in the 1960s - Subdivision known as Lakewood Park?

  • Jim Kitchens

    No, I've never lived in Florida, just Georgia Alabama, New York, and New Mexico.

    Welcome to iKC Jim.

  • Jim Kitchens

    Thanks Steve. I just happened upon this site.  It looks to be a good one.  Right now I'm trying to weed out my production knives and won't have a lot of time until I get them photographed, listed and sent to Bruce Voyles.

  • Jim Kitchens

    That's the idea.  I have 1 to 2 hundred that need to go.  Mostly Kershaws, CRKTs, and Case with a smattering of old camper/scout knives.  I'll throw in a few Northwoods and Grecos to spark interest.  I want to get down to only those of current interest and get some money for the Blade Show.

  • Steve Scheuerman (Manx)

    Ooooo...Kershaws. I like Kershaws. Maybe some will miss Bruce and end up here for sale. ;-)

  • Jim Kitchens

    I'll share the list before I take them to Tennessee.  Most of the Kershaws are when the company was in its infancy, not what the make today.

  • Steve Scheuerman (Manx)

    Would love to see what you have! Depending on price, I may just try to take a few off your hands.

    Hi Jim, Thought I'd move this off the forum thread. I think we met at UGA. I was there 69 - 72. Think we met through my sister Susie and Clay Heath.

    Been a long time but sounds right to me.

    Be sure to stop by and say hello at the Blade I'm at 5-J.
