Case classic Barndoor Toothpick 1992

"Very good information Mike. Thank you! Looks like all of these would be considered fairly limited production, and relatively rare now a days. Always nice to learn something new. Thanks again"

"Oooh! I had never heard of a 'barndoor' knife let alone ever see one like this. That handle is really attractive. Looks like a decent sized knife though. Very nice!"

Olsen OK - before and after

"Good evening Lars! The sheath for this is essentially identical to that one. BUT The sheath is not nearly as curved on the spine side of the blade, because the blade of the knife is straight. I have not done anything at all to the…"

Olsen OK - before and after

"Oh man....now that is pretty all cleaned up. So....does you sheath happen to look the one in this photo? I lifted this photo from the internet for reference. If so, what you have is a vintage Colt Olson hunting knife. The one I am showing is a 1971…"

Straight razors

At 20:08 on January 30, 2022, Lars Ray said…: Hey man...thanks for the friend request...of course I accepted! As for sending private messages, this is just fine - but if you truely want to send a private message - use the iKC email - upper right hand corner of your page in the area of your name, sign out, Fried requests, etc...

I wanted to start a formal stand-alone CFK group, but I could not accurately gauge if it would be accepted or not - so I started the it as a sub-group in the Box Full of Knives Box of Knives. I'm glad i did - as I commented to Lead Left Knife Guy , I seem to be the only one playing in that sand box at the moment, and I'm not sure my ego could manage no one join a group! LoL!

Right now it looks like it's just my thread....but if you add a post to it, then it will be as it is intended - a place to appreciate the CFK/iPAC brand.
