"Here is a picture of the Kershaw I got in the bunch.
Not in bad shape."
"Oh I forgot there was one early Kershaw in the box that was in pretty good shape.
Looks like it was carried more than used.
And all guarded by my wife's American Bulldog, Charlie."
"The other day I bought at auction a box of knives. The main problem was I could
not see the condition of the knives and only tell the make of a few. My count may
be off by one or two but I believe I ended up with 49 knives in various…"
Civivi Baklash
"I just bought a Civivi Dogma and while the quality of the knife is great the finish on the G-10 handle
material makes it look like cheap plastic. The D2 steel came as sharp as any knife I have purchased
and I like the blade profile. I will…"
"Here are a few boys knives/ camping knives I picked up the other day
at a local indoor flea market.
The first is a Sabre 619 stamped JAPAN.
The next one is a Imperial USA Prov.R.I. With a Kamp King shield.
The next is a…"
"I have a folding hunter that I know nothing about. It is a PIC brand made in Germany.
If anyone can tell me anything shout out. I have had it for years."
Ozark Trail Multiforce
"The mechanic I use carries one of these and he loves it.
Says it does everything the Leatherman does but at a
much better price and when he loses it, it does not hurt so
bad."

"Very nice! Hope it shoots as good as it looks."
"This is my haul for this year."
Just couldn't pass it up.
Was out and about the other day and saw this and just couldn't pass it by.I haven't had a chance to take it out yet but picked up 150 rounds to run throughit when I bought it. I hope it shoots as good as all the magazines claim.I will try to remember to post and let you know. If it is really good I may haveto look for the compact model. Its a Taurus G3 in 9mm.See More

Guns Magazine vintage issues
Just thought I would post this in case not everyone knows about it.Guns Magazine has .pdf copies of all the old issues starting in Jan. 1955and going thru 1970. They add years as they go.Just go to the web page and down toward the bottom of the page on the rightside you will see an icon for Guns Classic Issues.You can read them online or down load the pdf copy to read at your own pleasure.While most ads and articles are about guns there are a lot of knife ads forRandall and Buck and Old Timer…See More

Profile Information
- Profile
- User/Collector
- How did you hear about iKnifeCollector?
- I just stumbled in one day
- Do you currently subscribe to any knife publication (offline)
- Yes
- How long have you collected knives?
- 41 to 45 years
- Favorite Kind of Knives
- stockman preferably with stage grips. But I have been known to buy a trapper or a canoe or a congress or a barlow or a toothpick or a tactical or a lockback or... who's kidding they are all my favorites. I can always find something that I like about a knife.
- About Me
- 65 year old retired IT Tech, though I was schooled as a Draftsman and worked for over half my career as one, living in central Ms on the Ms River.
Married to the same woman for 35 years with 2 grown boys.
Now a 65 year old retired former IT Tech still married to same woman but with 2 boys a daughter-in-law and 2 grand daughters.
I now spend my time as an Uber driver for the girls and a baby sitter when called on.
- Interests
- My collection is various in nature, when I see a knife that I like the looks of I usually buy it. Most of my purchases are production not custom.
- Other Hobbies
- It seems that I sometimes I just can't help myself and go and purchase a gun, usually a handgun, more than likely over .40 in caliber. The problem with collecting guns is they go up in price but my retirement check doesn't go up at the same pace. I also have a small collection of 1/18 scale diecast cars, mostly 60's and 70's muscle and somehow a M48 & M4 tank and a M3 Half-Track.

I read somewhere that today was national knife day, so that's
my excuse.

Went over to the eldest for lunch and not only did he feed me
he gave me a little something.
A Bastion Braza EDC folder that he got from Battle Box.
D2 steel with stainless handles and ball bearings.
Weighs a ton but a really nice knife.…
I did it again.

The mail lady ran today and left a little package.
I think I may have to seek help.
First is a new Kershaw I thought was mighty good looking.
Then I picked up a Rough Rider because it had my initials on it.…

I just got the mail and lo and behold I have prizes in the mail.
Ok not prizes because I bought them but something new in

In MemoriamD ale said… Rome,
I've tried to PM you twice now through iKC. Perhaps, the attached link presented an issue.
.
I'd preferred to send this via a PM out of courtesy to Jan ..because.. it involves a different knife form. Anyway .. I'll send it this way.
.
I am a member of another forum that specializes in Queen City, Schatt & Morgan, & Queen in general. It is the site from which I gleaned the scissors & clippers.
.
It is unfortunate, the forum is Fb based. None the less .. I will include the "LINK". The name of the group is "Queen City & Schatt & Morgan knives". It's a "closed forum" ..but.. you'd be readily accepted.
.
When I mistakenly attempted to contact you through Fb .. I took a guess & contacted "Rome Patrick Rushing" who also hails from Vicksburg, MS. Obviously .. my bad !
.
Enjoy,
D ale
