Thats a fantastic looking knife! I love everything about it, blades, handles, pattern.....the whole package.

 

[TheChunk91]

Thanks guys.

Jeff, it's a 2334 at 3 3/8''.

My third and last knife this year was also a Cadet. My first Alox and finding it very useful already.

I want to see all the knives everybody got for Christmas presents.

It pays to put knives on your "Wish List". I got a beautiful Red Alox Cadet.
It already came in handy, opening presents and fixing the knob on the bathroom door.

Not my gift per se... But the gift we gave our boy. I was pretty excited. He cares more about the screwdriver...

We spent Christmas at our daughter's house to see the grandkids, so just opened our presents this morning. The wife was very generous this year! Now I did buy a couple of these myself, but with her blessing.

From the top, clockwise: late '70s Camillus 1014 (near mint in box), Tidioute #235108L burnt carved stag bone (NIT), Bulldog Tobacco Barlow in stag, a nice user SW 880 Kon-Kav stockman, and an #861219 in Sambar stag.

Thanks, fellas, it was a good haul. I immediately threw the old Schrade Walden stockman in pocket. The previous owner put a marvelous convex edge on all three blades . . . lightning sharp!

What a fistful of knife this is!

That one has a different swedge than usual, more of the ulster style. I hadn't seen one like it on an 880 before; interesting. Sometimes schrade did different little things, perhaps just to confound us. At any rate that's a nice stockman Jeff. I really like the aesthetics of the saber grind.

A very nice Christmas collection there Jeff, each and every one of them but man my eye's go right to the Bulldog Barlow

Very nice also Bill, it's like a roll of quarters in your fist, and to me, that's a good feeling

 

[black mamba]

Thanks to both Pauls for the nice comments. Paul T., I thought the swedge looked Camillus, but Ulster seems more likely. Definitely not Schrade's usual style.

Here are my first pics of the BF Traditional Forum’s Annual knife and Christmas present from the Mrs, the GEC Barehead Jack Sailor’s Rope knife, with a 1095 high carbon steel blade. brass liners, African Blackwood scales and a bomb shield.

Here’s this years knife.

As you can see in the above pic, the blade’s perfectly centered and nothing’s proud.

One of my Daughters gave me this book of Sheffield Exhibition Knives copyrighted in 1999 . There are some pictures of some un-real knives in it but this one really grabbed me . Made by Joseph Rodgers in the 1910 to 1914 range . Pearl and Gold



Now to the knife thatI have wanted for 3 years and my wife got for me for Christmas this year . I can assure that the pictures do not show the real beauty of this little knife . Arno Bernard Galago in Wart Hog Tusk Ivory . Razor Sharp and smoother than a babies back side .



I doubt that I will ever use it b but then again I have 100+ others that I probably will not either .
