The Cadillac of Imperials

[Trent Rock]

I CHALLENGE ANY OF YOU TO PRODUCE A FINER, MORE VALUABLE, (Your pink electric carver don't count Codger!!) EXAMPLE OF IMPERIAL EXQUISITE CRAFTSMANSHIP!!
Just kidding

This is bone right?
I got an easy-opener in my collection now :thumbup:
I didn't even know what an easy opener was until I got my OPGCK XV a few months ago

So
Dude puts up "Imperial Bone Handled Easy-Opener" listing on EBAY for 5 bucks
No bids

Dude selling the SAME model knife tosses out the WWII and Schrade words and he gets 36 bucks===>

Up for auction is this very old and rare knife. The knife has exquisite bone handles that are just flawless with a bale on one end with an easy to open groove. The knife has 2 sturdy blades that are in good shape for their age and have audible snap. the main blade is stamped Imperial Prov. R.I., The secondary blade is marked USA. The knife measures 3.25 inches closed. This knife may be have been made prior to 1947 when Schrade and Imperial combined and possibly had been manufactured for the military circa WWII. Dont miss out on this knife you wont find another like it in this good of shape.

Nice grab Trent, you can pick up some nice knives on the imperial pages now and again for not much of the greenstuff.

Ok
Rusty wins my CHALLENGE with his old skool main blade nail nick and his testicle cutter blade!

I wonder if mine used to look like Todd's top knife?
My handle looks pretty well used...............

I have one just like yours, even to the little piece of missing bone just above the bail pivot point (but only on that side). Nice little knife, still has good walk & talk and sharpened up nicely. That one Rusty1 posted is nice too.
