I`m feeling a bit nostalgic today, so I dug into the safe and pulled out some of my most special items.
First up is a knife I got from my Grandfather when I was around 8 years old, a small Kent. My Grampa was one of my heroes, he was a policeman in the 1920`s and 1930`s in Cicero Illinois, then later became the Police Chief in my little town until he passed away in the early 1960`s.
That`s my Grampa, second from the right in this photo.
Here is Grampa with his pride and joy, his 1955 or 1956 Cadillac (I can`t remember what year it was).
These are two Colonials my Mother bought me. The camping one was bought in Lake Geneva Wisconsin, the fish knife was from one of those cardboard displays in our local drug store.
These were my Dad`s knives, a small Case, Camillus Stockman, an Imperial Kamp King, and a Victorinox Classic.
This is the Buck 112 that my wife surprised me with when we were dating in 1986. I knew right then and there that she was the one!
Thanks for reading this, these all brought back great memories for me.
