I like the extra flair to the design Paul.A lovely folder I bought many years ago from Russell White. Sadly he's not well enough to make at the moment, and I know he was probably the reason for some of the best Taylors Eye Witness folders I have too
Was his birthday this week......many Happy Returns, Russell....!

I love that you give more chances to good knives with a little more life left in them. I'm sure whatever knife maker was putting them together never fully appreciated how long the knife's useful life could be.Two from Sheffield:

Thanks!Well said
Thanks Travis, this one dates from 1950-70 according to the tang stamp, but I suspect it falls more into the early to mid 50's from what I've discovered about it. It's been worked on in regards to blades loss/reshape but still such a great solid knife with great snap and the bone is killerPaul, I saw this one in the “Old Knives” thread too. Thanks for sharing it. The jigged bone is incredible. The whole package is stunning. What year range is this one from?
Old? Not you.I love those single-blade folding hunters. I sometimes look at mine and wonder what exactly has been improved upon since.

Of course, I'm old.
Ah geez. At the risk of appearing excessive, I also have small covered.Very nice pair of #99s.
Nice set of Old Timers... Medium, Large, and X-Large.![]()

I've had it long enough to have no idea how long. Mine's a Camillius-made Craftsman, judging by the visible pivot pins.Old? Not you.
Yessir, the 125 is cool. And it’s plenty slim for pocket carry. But it’s on my belt today.
How long you had yours?
