Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

Picked these two up this weekend from a Dealer in Newark New Jersey were the Valley Forge Jack is originally made I believe. The Hibbard Spencer Barlow has some cool looking Saw Cut Bone Handles and it looks like it's probably quite old as well. I'm vary happy I found this one. However it's The Valley Forge Jack with that Random Jigged Bone handles that I'm truly looking forward to checking out. :cool::)

Thanks Dwight I thought the same thing when I came across them. Then when I saw they were both still available I was pumped. You know the deal most times the ones that draw your eye first are often along gone . The best part is I think the Valley Forge is in original condition never cleaned. :D Do you know how I could find something like that out for sure?

Very fine duo:thumbsup:

That Valley Forge exudes quality, not just the exceptionally beautiful deep jigging, but also you can see a fine rendering of a broad Spear blade, remarkable addition:cool:

That Valley Forge is a great find! I hope you post it in the "Old Knives" thread.

Rachel beat me to it. :) Post it in the "old knives" thread and ask any questions you would like answered. That's where the experts on vintage knives are.
 
If the definition of insanity is doing the same task over and over and expecting a different outcome I think I'm in trouble. I keep buying GEC Pembertons. Each one has been a dream to look at and expertly made. The single blade white bone, the single and double blade stag were all dynamite but just too small. I still have the double blade stag for its looks.
So, what did I do? Hahaha, bought both of the Templars. The clip point is far better for me so I'm hoping it stays longer than the others. Here's the Caribbean Blue.IMG_8080-1024x772.JPG
 
Thank you R8shell, Dwight and Will for both the compliments on the knives and the information about the Old Knives "Thread" who would a guessed it. :eek::D:thumbsup:
 
Perhaps not everyone’s cup of tea, but...not very big, great build with nice detailing on the smooth bone scales.

My newest is a Case Panama Trapper in whiskey bone with CV blades.
I wasn't sure I'd like this pattern. But I'm lovin it.
