Those were in his "junk drawer"???![]()
That’s what I was thinking. Makes me wonder what his “nice” knives are.
He had a bunch of old Western and Case knives from a collection he had bought at an estate sale. Many were well used (i.e., had been loved to death on a grinder) however, about six or seven were in as nice a condition as the two I bought. His big business is modern tactical's of the better brands (I saw Benchmade, Kershaw, and a few others I haven't heard of - Z.T. and ProTech). He also makes some nice fixed blades, that is his passion. He was about my age, mid-60's, and enjoyed having someone visit who liked to talk traditional knives. I got invited in to sit and talk awhile and invited to plunder in the toolbox drawers. I will go visit him again on the next show date, he was fun to talk with. OH
