Thanks for all of the nice comments. Lyle, I sold that lockback to Charlie a few years ago.

Another nice one, Charles. Barry Wolder (1fartsmella) also has some great NYK Co. knives.

I have noticed through research that Hammer Brand has made a lot of very nice celluloid handled knives. Im in the process of obtaining some. and some of the bowling ball figured knives as well.

You're well on your way Mark,thanks to your good friends.

Wow, looks mighty good on wood, Mark! I bought this knife at the OKCA show back in 2012. The guy that sold it to me said it was as scarce as hens teeth! Course I was more impressed by the fact that the handles weren't cracked. Obviously the gentlemen that bought this knife new was more accustomed to using the pen blade than the main.
