Hi guys,
I have a NIB AG Russell pen knife with Abalone scales, titanium bolsters and VG-10 blade. It is extremely sharp for such a small blade. It come with a small leather pouch for carrying and box.
I also have a Case pen w/ scissors with stag scales. This knife is also NIB and has a nice bail to attach a lanyard or chain.
I have a second Case Pen w/ scissors with mother of pearl scales. I'm no expert on Case knives but the dealer who sold it to me told me it was made in the 1950's. It looks to be lightly carried with some fine scratches on the bolsters (they should buff out, if you care) and comes with a velvet lined gift box. It feels very solid for such a small knife and I think there really is something to all the talk of early Case quality.
I'd like to trade these for another nice slipjoint. I'd love another Russell, but will consider S&M, Queen and others. I have just about all the Case knives I think I want. I have a preference for wharncliff blades and nice scales (stag, MOP, abalone, etc). I'd like to try and keep this to traditional folders if possible. Please email me with any questions or offers, I can't check the threads as much as I would like. Thanks for looking!
