Your collection of Remington & Case knives are cool, and you can really appreciate the Rough Riders when you can examine them in pattern groups. Thanks for your comments regarding my collection. For certain I believe we are both enjoying our hobby and we have both come a long way with our photo skills. Best regards and I wish you all the best, Bill

I am not as agressive since retirement. Makes a difference when yor every Friday paydays end. Also much harder to find the old knives. They are scarcer and certainally more expensive. I look at all that are on eBay each morning. Flag a few, sometimes I may bid but most of the time I use it as a reference.

I am going to do a couple more of thes, one will be in buffalo horn and if I can convince myself to make the investment, I think one in quality sanbar stag would look real well. I have taken the liberty to look at your pix and you have a beautiful diverse collection and I see your wife is involved as well. Thanks again....

Any knife, that I've bought, was one that I liked. (Cheap or expensive)

The new Bulldog was my gift, to me.

At 0:56 on April 30, 2011, In MemoriamD ale said…: The story I recall mentioned an over-extension of resources. I'm happy with the knives produced under his control .. including the Case .. Queen .. 'n others from lesser known manuf of the time. It is my understanding that is how Bear MGC came into being .. producing damascus for Case .. when under Parker's cntrl.

At 23:24 on April 29, 2011, In MemoriamD ale said…: I used to buy direct from PKCS .. I have many of their old catalogs .. he offered some deals back then. I purchased more than 1 mini copperlock @ the $20 level .. have given most of those away :(

At 21:32 on April 29, 2011, In MemoriamD ale said…: James Parker was buying everything in sight there for a while. "n yes .. he was licensed the stamp "Marbles". I think he/CASE bought the Kinfolks & other CASE family names , he even owned CASE for a bit.

Tak Fakuta went on to do some good schtuff. I really like the units I had. ???? hard to give away .. not to me daughter !!!!

At 1:53 on April 29, 2011, In MemoriamD ale said…: I've had a few knives made by Tak Fakuta .. all damascus .. really liked em all !!!

I'm using the past tense because I gave all 3 of them away .. one to a very close friend .. the other two to my daughter. That should provide an indication of what I thought of their quality !!!!
