"Old Knives"

[Duckdog]

Wow! Great Knives @Duckdog - but with probably the most lethal unstable Celluloid, are they starting to gas out? ( by the Bolsters-) I hope not because they are great, I probably wouldn't store these with my other Knives though?

Thanks, Duncan. Yes , it"s a tenuous relationship, but all parts seem to be compatible. No corruption/corrosion so far. They do sleep alone. - Stuart

Scary eh! I too have a few Celluloids I keep separate as I just don't quite trust them - which annoys the heck out of me as I want everything in it's place

Another Herder, this time a big Boy steps into the ring!
A 6 inch closed F Herder Sodbuster, not the easiest to find in this size- and this one is in nice Shape, the Soddy as we know is a pretty basic Knife- But I really enjoy handling this Beast! I always enjoy seeing the Ace of Spades on these Knives too!

I just picked one up at an estate sale just like this. The Ace of Spades is almost worn down, but it’s there. Any idea of the age or value of these knives?

You did a spectacular job of getting the pearl to show in the photos. Not an easy feat. Well done.

Hi there

The discussion of Value is often frowned upon here, without looking up any Catalogs I am unsure as to what year these would be if they are pre WW2 or Post, possibly the later.

I have one that is very similar, but made by Carl Schlieper. A little smaller as the handle is only 4 1/2 inches long. John

Absolutely gorgeous, Stuart, the pick bone is the highlight for me, but the whole knife is just fabulous.

Thanks, Jeff. Yes, it's pretty loaded for a hardware store knife.

Aaahh, just a 10 bucker . . . I could tell that!
