Yes
How long have you collected knives?
21- 25 years
Favorite Kind of Knives
Whittlers, especially CASE "Seahorse",
and the Great Eastern "Gippetto" Whittlers.
I also like other utilitarian frames and whatever appeals to me at the time.
Thanks, JJ. I like the idea of a photo album. No grand kids, but lotsa dog pictures. I have a section on my web site dedicated to our 10 lb poodle, Lucy. She's FRIENDLY. It's called "I Love Lucy".
Hello, Thanks for your welcome. I have a collection of old Sheffield knives and would like to sell some of them. When I get to know the site I will illustrate them.
JJ , thank you for the warm welcome. From the picture of the GEC I would say you are a man who collects along the same interests as me. I will have to get some pictures up soon.
Hey JJ, will those oils actually swell the wood some?
I watched a youtube video that showed those type oils are good for conditioning and cleaning, but did nothing to swell the wood. What do you think? In your experience, does the wood swell at all with a good soaking in any of your suggestions>
Hey J.J. I know what you mean about the shows.. When I get bored, I buy knives. Blah. Needless to say I can get quite bored. LOL. Oh well, a show is coming up this next weekend so Hopefully I'll sell and not buy.
Too bad you have to drive to the show. I usually average 10 to12 shows a yr. All are in Tulsa, Ok. We don't have knife shows around here. We have gun and knife shows with the opportunity to get candy, jerky, jellies, and even home siding. LOL. Oh well, we go and do our thing.. #121 coming up this weekend.
Yuck. Lima Beans !!!!!!!??????? About the only bean that I've ever run across that I can't deal with is Lima or Butter Beans. All the others are open game !!!!!!! Anyway, I'll go with the game hens for sure!!!!!!! Again, hope you had a great day in your old age !!!!!!!! LOL
Thank you. ... I am on a quest to find more information on Track Knives by Ithaca Gun Company. My problem is when I purchased these knives in the 70's I took them out of the boxes and put them in my safe. Now many years later I have boxes and don't have a clue as to which knife goes to which??? Do you have a chat room you would suggest

Thanks so much for the detailed explanation JJ.
The movement is so minor, but noticeable.
It's probably less that 1/16" and more like 1/32"
Just frustrating, because otherwise this big old knife is just perfect!'Again, thanks for your time, and all the best.
