I thought it would be nice to show off some February Finds. I just found these the other day and wanted to share in my excitement.
The one on the far left is an Imperial with pearl celluloid scales. Great walk and talk now after a complete overhaul. The scales are in perfect shape ...so far. The blades slam shut like a bear trap and really took an edge.
In the middle, the mystery knife. The handles are topographical celluloid or something? The blade shape was very interesting and the handle shape is superb in my book. The bolsters scream...old. It was very rusted and took quite a bit of work, but now it walks and talks again. I can make out CURT & CL on the tang, but may be wrong as its so faint. The shield just sings.
The knife on the right is a Schrade #834 in some nice peach seed Delrin
. It also was quite rusted and has some play in the main blade but cleaned up nicely.
Any help on the middle knife would be appreciated and please show any new ones you've found lately.
