A few days ago I stumbled across bladeforums while trying to research a knife that my father gave me for Christmas. What a find
bladeforums has been! I asked for help and was referred the Mr. Levine's Forum and guess what? Yep he had the answer. I have always liked knives and have carried at least a pocket knife everyday for the last 30 years or so.......but I have always just "used" a knife but after the last 4 days I have started appreciating them more.
I have never bought a knife, but after I started looking around the house I may have started collecting and didn't know it. The "old Case" pocketknives that were my grandfathers, the 3 Queens that were his also, the Queen #39 that I got in 74 for making Eagle Scout. The Buck 110 I wanted so badly in 76. My Dad's old Western he had as a boy.......yeah they have a story and now I appreciate them more. Thanks and I look forward to furthering my knife experiences....
Oh by the way the knife I needed info on is a Gerber 525 with Stag
made for "Eddie Bauer". No Gerber markings or serial #'s but certainly a Gerber made in the early 70's. Maybe not a true "Valuable" collectible but priceless to me.............thanks!
