My wife had a collection of about 200 old pruners; US, Germany, English,etc. All the early, early US brands. Alas she sold the collection (against my advice) several years ago :-(

Hello and welcome. Go to the Tech Support part of this Forum, many people ask about showing images & you'll get a tutorial or advice there. I just got Imgur and put my photos there, copy the link and then paste them into the post I'm writing. There are other options too.

I know this is not vintage but Lyle's SFO looks the part with all steel construction and I think some very tidy bone. Based on GEC's 38 frame. Mr C.Campagna also issued some fine variants on the same frame, got them too, but this is m'user Nice blade.

- it is simple for me to post pics, John, as I have had a Photobucket account for many years, so posting pics is a doddle.

On Edge Matters, we set it up so you could just drag pics off a desk top or your phone and input straight to your thread - don't know how it works on here, but given BladeForums upgraded its entire software not so long ago, I'd suggest it's easier than you think - perhaps Gary or Frank Peregrin @knarfeng would be good enough to point you to a link/give some direction

S Stag knife Many members use Imgur since Photobucket decided to hold everyone's images for ransom. There are a number of threads on the subject. Here are links to a few of them,

Stag, here is my old Pal Cutlery in some very dark cocobolo. Since my older posting of this was lost to photo_ucket, I show it here anew.

Hi John, Three blue boxes appear at the bottom right of the post box. Click on the middle box "Upload a File" search for the photo you want on your hard drive. Select the photo and click "Open". The photo should appear in your post. Select thumbnail or full image as desired. When finished, click "Post reply" I hope this helps.

I use Flickr. It's fast,easy, and provides you with lots of space. Great interface too

Here is an OVB ( Our Very Best ) which is a Hibbard Spencer & Bartlett branding. More than likely made by New York Knife Co.

I use it all the time. Welcome and looking forward to seeing your knives !!!
