Just a few photos... There's a LOT more to see but you need to stop by the Case/Zippo Museum in Bradford, PA and see for yourself!

Thanks Andy! I had a lot of fun. Lots of great knives. There were also a lot of interesting and unusual patterns that I didn't expect to see.

Several times last year I picked up freight a mile down the street from there. Of course I was in a hurry. I sure hope to get back there soon and these pictures really help.
Thanks for sharing.
 
Nice! I should have taken more photos, glad to see that you did!

Interestingly, just before you get there, you see the one sporting goods store, to the right of that is the place that mfg's Microtech knives, talk about both ends of the spectrum! You can't go in there, it's just a mfg facility.

I really gotta get to Bradford one of these days. It's only a 12 hour drive. ;)
Thanks for the pics.
 
A visit to Bradford is on my list too. It's not that far away from me, so I really have no excuse.
 
Thank you Gary and Jake for taking us through there.
This Kiwi would love to go through something like this... you guys are most fortunate to have experienced this.
 
The Thread seems to be a little bit old. No problem to me ;)

Thank you for the great pics.

Maybe, once I take a flight around half of the world and visit that museum.
In the US seem to be a lot of great places to look at. For a european.

Kind regards
Andi
 
Hi Duncan -

You will just have to arrange a trip to the states then, maybe to coincide with Blade someday.

Jake - That model 65 with the screwdriver is sweet - I wonder if we could get something like that for a future forum knife.....

best regards -
