Duncan, an awesome show! You must have opened the INNER SANCTUM to pull those out. The wormgroove bone on the Pocket Eze is as good as anything I've seen. Many thanks.

Nice knives, Duncan. Thanks for showing them. I'm no expert, but I'm thinking this is a Boker USA.

Charlie, I REALLLY like the Sheep HJ
Duncan, I'm puzzled that some of those beauties made it out of the great state of North Dakota. Honestly, I like them all, but that Robeson is so UNIQUE. Just a heads up on the UTICA BIG JACK, customs contacted me insisting it be returned to ND, something about red tape and all
Gev- Im killing myself! Thank you my friend I am starting to worry as I hear whispering when I enter the room, and then it stops - knives talk right?Duncan, you are killing it !!!!! In both the knives and the photographs. How can your heart take it. I'm worried for you

Whoa Mama!! Nearly a whole page of killer knives!!
Outrageous Duncan, simply outrageous!!
How could you stand having them sit in ND for so long??
Are those Paul's fingerprints I see??
Unusual punch on that Robeson - a beautiful double-end Harness Jack!!
Never seen that punch before! Great score, in a sea of great scores!!
Nice going my friend!!
Great. I am always scouring the net for tang stamp charts, even saved them to my phone for easy reference at yard sales and such. I can't attest to their 100% accuracy, but that Boker one was published in Knife World, so it should give some guidance.Awesome R8shell - when looking up in Goins and BRL4 - There wasnt the Bold Letter Stamp by itself to help me- you have Thank you so much for that.

View attachment 773598 I get a kick out of these 2 well loved doglegs. I picked them up years apart and get a kick out of their near identically broken pen blades, and that the owners kept those stubs sharp and used them based on their wear. The lighter coloured bone is a Walden Knife Co with 19343 stamped on the tang. The darker leg is from a brand named Crusader, which I have found no info on. The rear tang is stamped 2957 so I presume it was made by Winchester. These frames are so near identical, down to pin and shield placement. Good thing there wasn't forums back then, cries of counterfeit would fill pages.
Very nice.PAL Cutlery - we all know and all too familiar with the beautiful Easy Openers that come up now and then like the one shown below..
This is the first Clip Point Pal Cutlery Jack I have seen, The Patina is all nat-u-ral on this old Girl- please dont get me wrong- the Jigged Bone is Rather Plain- and the Knife itself isn't a High-end Knife - but in saying that- FAR from a bad one as well, I just find this knife quite interesting as I have seen few- well to be honest from memory ...none! if you have one of these? I would really appreciate seeing them!
That bone is singular. I like it!,Henry Sears and Son, quite possibly Camillus Built, a somewhat of a Plainish Knife- But the Bone Colour is so mellow I sort-of fell for it
Plain Bolsters, the fit and finish in the close ups that I will post make the Knife look quite shabby- but this is not so "in the Flesh".
Nice Blades- Sharpened- but not overly - Nice long Pen Blade....
