I was reorganising my gun safe, wherein I store some knives as well.
I used to shoot a lot of pistol, both combat style, and NRA contemplative/precision paper punching.
My favorite was bowling pins though! 5 pins off the table with my .44 in under 4 seconds! Loved speed shooting!
My guns have been sitting still for a lot of years now. But what is this?? A small knife roll, hiding behind some zippered pistol cases!
5 knives in there, two quite interesting! Small knives.
Empire Knife Company. I acquired them after I finished up the Empire Collection, which I subsequently sold years later. But I don't remember putting these little knives in such an inaccessible place?
Something strange going on here!!
A small curved jack with a blade that is a cross between a Wharncliffe and a Sheepfoot. This knife is only 2 15/16" long, but feels powerful and competent! Great striated blackwood handles. You photographers would have fun with the wonderful grain lines. Dandy snap all three ways. Small!
And then there is its little buddy . .err budder! Budder and Grafter!! I've never seen an upswept point on a B&G, let alone any folding knife! And it is thin. The grind is right to the edge (no bevel), and razor sharp! 2 7/8" plus a 1 1/8" ivory spud.
Some little person or being was trying to make off with these small knives - I'm sure of it!
