Couple old Case Blades 1940's

Any more information on the dagger-style blade behind the stacked leather hunter? I love the design but can't seem to find this type of knife anywhere!

Here is one from the WWII era that was an Army issue. Nothing fancy but a good useful utilitarian knife that many of our greatest generation who served used during chow time.

.. my knife finally arrived today. #31! Designed and custom built by Jim Behring the Treeman, with hand forged O-1 hi-carbon steel full tang construction and vacuumed heat treated to 58 RC, completed and finished with a special matte black coating including the set screw hardware, slightly rounded off custom scull crusher, with forrest green indestructible tenite G-10 checkered grips, and housed in a digitally camo patterned Spec-Ops made in the U.S.A military sheath. . .

Not an old one, but a John Nowill & Sons Sheffield Bowie blade I purchased from the company and put the handle on myself. It has a nickel silver guard and pommel pieces with sambar stag handle scales, all pinned with steel pins.

Hope you enjoy looking at it!

Those are some serious bowie style knives there gentlemen!

The top knife is a Weck and Mueller trade knife I got for a dollar. The blade cleaned well but the handle is pretty rough. Still it is a true classic and well within my budget.
The bottom one is a Turk Bayonet.

This is the before photo for my Ross rifle bayonet. Notice the blade is shaped a lot like the trade knife.

My other Ross has the blade altered like they were in WW1 when they decided a bayonet should be pointy.

This is the after photo of my Ross.

The bayonet mount was toast so a chopped it and cleaned it up. The blade is very very sharp and hollow ground and very good steel especially for a 100 year old knife.

This case holds a GEC scout and can be attached to the Ross sheath.

This 100 year old knife gets a lot of use now that it has been brought back from the dead. It took a ridiculous amount of work but was worth it.


This is my custom camp knife. It stuck in here with one swipe. The blade is 1095 ,the guard wrought iron and the handle maple burl.
Made by Conan from CGN.

this is a crazy cool thread for traditional regular sheath type knifes. here`s one of my older ones that i got as a gift a long time ago i`m not sure what type it is but it has an old style to it.

I just got this one in the mail today. I didn't really need it, but the pictures from the internet just haunted me for some reason. Well it's at least as impressive in person, and has a wonderful feel in the hand -- excellent heft and balance. I was going to get Ebony handles for a more traditional set-up, but I love green canvas Micarta so I went with that.

Its the "Hudson Bay Camp Knife" by Bark River. A2 tool steel, full height convex grind. Supposedly it's a replica of the prototypical "Camp Knife" made by the Hudson Bay Company to meet the needs of American Trappers and Mountain Men in the 18th century. Regardless, the fit and finish is amazing, and the sheath is a thing of beauty on it's own.

These are the stock pictures from the DLT Trading website, where I bought it.

A. G. Russell is selling a similar pattern, made by Kabar: http://www.agrussell.com/ka-bar-union-razor-pig-sticker/p/KA6476/

From the farm to the battlefield in every war since WWI!
Limited to 500 serial numbered knives. In 1917, when the United States entered World War I, most Americans lived on farms. Most farms processed their own pork, ham, bacon and sausage. In the process, many of them used a knife called a pig sticker, a knife with a double edge intended to cut the throat of the hog once he was shot and hung. Many a farm hand saw this as just the thing to carry away to the Army or the Marines in 1917 and again in 1941-42. It was a lot more useful than the trench knives issued in 1917-1918 and almost as useful as the standard issue knives of 1941-1945 and later wars of the 20th Century. Probably no longer made for bleeding hogs, they seem to always be available whenever we are at war. Ka-Bar, the descendent of the Union Razor Company, has decided to make a limited edition of this knife and is limiting it to 500 serial numbered pieces.
