I saw that one up for grabs after a friend notified me about it, I have a couple of them and thought about it- came back and it was gone lol - nice grab

Russell made mostly Barlows!! These are rare, non-barlows, apparently!! Older pics!
I found these all around 2005-2006! HJ prices started to jump, then the market dried up!! (I probably bought them all!!)

Thought these deserved to be carried over to this page- Oh man Charlie- I love these more every time I see them, Thank you for everything you have done in the Knife World- by reawakening some of the classic Patterns - I'm just so thankful you did as they are the main vein of my taste in Traditionals, and very thankful you share your knives and your knowledge.

Thanks Charlie for the kind word. Your creative skills are top notch and a breathe of fresh air to the knife community. For your 1st HJ at queen… you hit it out of the park.

That was my first vintage HJ purchase, sorry I didn’t give you much time to think about it. I’m not sorry it’s in my collection though

I did hear a wee whisper in the dark about that Charlie- that's SO exciting my friend - really is! As much as Sears Knives have taken me, my love for the HJ is King there's no doubt about that!
I haven't participated much in the last year with the huge happenings of shifting twice, change of job roles because of that shift etc. and to be honest I feel I have missed out on a lot.

We miss you around here, Duncan!! It seems you have a lot on your plate!!
We look forward to "seeing" you more when the dust settles!! All the best!! I am sure many wish you the same!!!

Thank you Charlie kind Sir

Hi, new here, have a few old blades I’m hoping to identify starting with this old Case XX. From the tang, it appears to be a 1920’s era Case. Anyone have any info on this particular model? Thanks in advance!

 

[Old Engineer]

We could better help you with a photo of the knife Tang Stamp to sort out the Era of when it was built . If you cannot post a photo , then go onto the big Case store in Missouri's website & look at the info they have there on being able to read the model number to tell what it is .
Welcome to Blade Forums my friend .

Welcome, Knight!! Pictures are what will get you answers, as Harry said above!!!

I really like a HJ. That punch is just so useful as a secondary. I've shown these before but hey while we are on the subject why not show them again.

Three beautiful HJs, pistonsandgears ! I really like that Enders with the Oak Leaf etch!

Fantastic knife, tongueriver !! I really like equal ends with tip bolsters.

 

[Campbellclanman]

I agree with Dan, pistonsandgears those HJ’s are awesome, one never tires of seeing them.
Cal - aren’t those knives just gorgeous- wonderfully built as well.

Added a couple of small barehead jacks yesterday so got all my older Robeson knives out for a group photo.

M majorpain1 , very nice collection of Robesons. Love the three granddaddy barlows, especially the strawberry bone one on the bottom left corner.
