"Old Knives"

[Gevonovich]

I appreciate getting to see your beauties, Charlie! Thank you

Primble, that is a great group!! Just splendid! I kind of liked your long windedness...lol

Lyle, holy smokes that FJ is a looker! Thanks for sharing your joy

Mike, those are some lovely additions to your collection. They definitely belong here:thumbup:

Lyle, Charlie and Primble thanks for the chance to see your true one of a kind gems.

Here are two I got recently, not even close to your examples, yet an older knives with very nice red bone. Be sure that knives looks better in hand as my photography skills are not so good.

These are half stockman and small premium jack, I have posted them in other thread but I feel they belong here too.

Mike

Thank you Mike.

Very nice old red bones! They have some very nice patina on the full blades and the bone looks nice as well. Those old Case XX's have a special place in my heart.

Primble, that is a great group!! Just splendid! I kind of liked your long windedness...

Much appreciated Gevo. I went back and re-read my long-winded post and changed it to be more consise, however, a few might remember the original.

I recall on an old thread a few months back of a member who stated he just loved all kinds of knives. I thought that really described me pretty well and I will add a bit more to what he said to describe how I feel about knives:

"I love old knives, I love new knives, I love "as found knives", I love shiny knives, I love dull knives, I love knives with patina, I love knives with no patina, I love my knives, I love your knives, - I just love knives."

and wasn't that Lyle knife just SPLENDID?!!!

Knice pair of Cases, Mike!

And a Cool Cattle Perry! I like the way the B&M crosses at the shield!

 

[Gevonovich]

Super piece, Perry! I think its my favorite of your herd

 

[gunstockjack]

Perry, that is quite the herd! Makes me hungry for flapjacks!

 

[singin50]

Me too, Charlie! I couldn't believe it was right at the crosshairs of the B&M celluloid. Thank you Gev! My favorite now too. Thanks Barry! You cook 'em and I'll come a runnin!

Very nice Cattleman Singin! I see you say you just scored it and it made me wonder if you scored the whole herd in one place? Either way - they are a nice collection.

 

[singin50]

Thank you Primble! I didn't, these were found all over the place. Some from friends here and others from shows and auctions.

 

[Mike Robuck]

Very nice collection of B&M knives! Always nice to see knives from your collection Charlie.

This is from the Voyles museum auction: "Hilger & Sons Celebrated, Germany four blade carved pearl equal end with grooved bolsters and grooved center spacer. All blades long pull, Salesman sample numbers on the back of the master blade, mint except for some specking and a line of pits on the upper swedge of the master blade. 3 1/4 closed."

 

[Gevonovich]

Super specimen, Mike! Just a treat to see, thanks!

 

[bill2000]

That Camillus is a stunner. Love that long pull and swedge. The color anf jigging are beautiful. Any chance of seeing it open?

Here is a group picture of some of my old knives. I took these pictures a few days ago.
I like to line them up in groups of three to five and see how they look. I like the variation in the bone and shields.

Left to right: NYKC Hammerbrand, Cattaraugus, Schrade Cut. Co., Camillus, and John Primble.

Mike B,I like those old red bone Cases too,especially have a fondness for single spring opposite ends.

Perry,that cattle is special.

Mike R that Hilger is exquisite,simply stunning,what a knife.I think you got a bargain.

My latest,a
Maher and Grosh. I don't know who made it yet,but it looks similar to a Camillus I have and the K & B Cutsure,at least the bone does...? I don't have all my knives at the present,will confer as much as possible later.

Thank you Jeff! Here's the rest of the heard.

Perry my friend...what a great selection...just awesome....( I love just about anything with that D/E on it, I only wish I could afford to branch out into concentrating on that as well )by the way - the crowd went wild here when a special package arrived yesterday!!!!!
