Goodies, Lloyd!!
Nice stack of Bolsters!!

Thanks Charlie! Nothing of your kind of caliber but decent I guess. I just love the variety of bolster stamps and then combine that with the range of handle cover materials and blade options--well it doesn't get much better in terms of vinyage knife collecting opportunities for us enthusiasts

Very nice Lloyd - that jigged Schrade and the New York Knife barlow are favorites of mine.
