OK guys and gals:

Here is Clue number 1 for Contest number 4

If 2 more people answered this Contest we would see that 3 is really iii.

Good luck everyone.

As I explained in the post about this contest (#4), the winner gets to make his/her choice between three knives.

• A Craftsman Barlow.  You don't see a lot of them, this one looks like the 1960s or so, saw cut brown bone handles, blades have a nice patina.  The tang reads Craftsman
• A cracked Ice white colored handles on a small (2 5/8") advertisement knife with an attached hole that could allow you to connect a chain and attach the knife to something.  This knife is…

Well the last contest seemed to zip by with Peter's nice win.  I had expected a more difficult time and a little longer contest.  I even had at least one Tip to give you guys.

That gave me an empty case to fill up.  So the pics below are a mixture of things.

The first photo is an entire row of…

I received two beautiful old Sheffield (I think) stags today.

You can see one is a foldingg knife and the other is a very large Bowie or hunting knife (?)  I'm not sure.  I bought these from a guy on All About Pocket Knives (AAPK).  I have bought a few knives from him over the last two years and I always print out info when I buy them but I can't find it today.  And he always sends printed info when he ships a knife, but not this time.

And what do you know....the Bowie or…
