Grandpa's old Camillus peanut. Grandpa passed away in 1964 at the age of 71. Came to this country from Norway by himself at the age of 16 and never returned. Talk about an adventurer! Took the rail all the way to Ballard, WA a suburb of Seattle, where lots of Scandahoovians lived.He worked in the sawmills there for a couple years before heading to Alaska where he met my grandmother. They were married in 1919 in Seldovia and lived there until 1957 when they relocated to Pt Angeles, WA. During his life he was a commercial fisherman, carpenter, boatbuilder and for the last 15 years or so, a U.S Marshall for that area including the Kenai peninsula. I only have a few memories of him as I was 8 when he passed away and they include him playing his accordion and showing me all his hand-tools in his wood shop.....plus the barrel of pickled herring in the corner.

Wonderful story and a very nice knife. A perfect way to remember him.

Great pics Ed. I especially like that Ebony #15 w/caplifter. I know mine is a favorite and has seen daily use keeping me refreshed :)
 
ED, love that 6488. looks like a great work knife my friend. How does that spear compare to the GEC #79 main blade?
