Very nice, Jack! I have a Schrade Craftsman knife on the way. I bought it from KJ on the BF Exchange. :thumbup: A few more goodies on the way also.

My mouth is watering, guys, keep bringing on those old knife photos! I have one or two items that might qualify en route, and maybe one more that I'm currently waiting to see if I can make mine. I will post photos as they are received.
 
Been out of the loop for a couple weeks, some nice knives have been posted, thanks all.

Here are a couple oldies that I picked up recently, a Catt equal end jack and a Camillus rope knife, the Camillus is a little different than a couple others that I have in that it is not stamped Coast Guard approved on the back tang,it is blank.

A gift from a friend of mine for watchin' his house and pets while he went on vacation to California for a month, he said, "I paid ten bucks for it, think I paid too much?" :eek:

A beautiful celluloid piece from the 50s, I have some great friends.

That equal-end is fantastic, I am rediscovering my curiosity for the Cattaraugus history after picking up an old Barlow. Yours is one of the nicest I've seen! :thumbup:

I can't find beat-up, oxidized versions of that Ka-bar for $10, and yours is the kind I'd want as a representative of that pattern. Even the hook sharpener seems minty, you seem to have better friends than I do. :grumpy: :D
 
Sawcut bone with a hundred years of pocket wear, gotta love it. Sweet knife jprime84 thanks for sharin'.
 
Interesting old bottle opener Jack.

There used to be a Crown Cork Co. factory in Leeds, Alabama, which is just a few miles from Birmingham.

Birmingham? Leeds? Get it?

We weren't very original when it came to naming our communities.

Thanks Charlie, PM me and address if you'd like it :thumbup:

I've sometimes thought I could maybe earn my fortune writing pieces about the different namesake towns for the local papers of their US counterparts! ;) :D :thumbup:
