I can't even begin to express what a give-away deal that was!


You're making me feel guilty dude! :lol:

But, if anything else, they'll be well taken care of and with about 70 or 80 of their Beltrame relatives! I even have one of their "grand-pappys" here, a BV&F, for them to visit with!! :wink:

I have 3 Widows. One I bought way back when they were first introduced in ebony and two I acquired more recently. In comparing them I wasn't able to find any issues that concerned me too much about where the newer ones were produced, even though I can be paranoid! The only thing I noticed of ...

Just to get this thread back on track- buy Dave's knives!
They are all reasonably priced!


I wholeheartedly agree!!

I've bought at least 6 over the past month or two, and I'm still considering a few others!!

Very fair prices, extremely well kept pieces, accurately described. David is a great ...

PM Sent!

I hate to even suggest it, but, I noticed over the last 12 months that Black Widows are available again, and in all sorts of scale variations on 3K/KS. Does anyone know who's building these?? I can't imagine they're NOS or old inventory because there are so many scale materials (burls, etc.) that I ...

Same with old Harleys, if it doesn't have a wet spot under it you probably ran out.


:lol: So true!!

I also have an '84 1000cc Sportster (another all in the family since new candidate) and I'm always suspicious of it because it doesn't leak! :wink:

Regards my Triumph, it's not considered authentic "Brit Iron" if they're not leaking oil!

Nice bike, I have a 66 flh which is a work in progress but I have a 96 Heratige Nostalgia which I ride as much as I can. Old with a lower back surgery keeps my rides shorter than I like, it what it is.


I hear you on the aging and riding thing! Believe it or not, I managed to fracture my C1 on ...

Beautiful car Dave, they don't get more classic than that!!
I have a '55 Hemi powered Chrysler New Yorker, it's been in our family since new and has 36k legit miles! My grandfather had a stroke not long after buying it so it's been a Garage Queen all its life! The only problem with these cars is ...

I can attest to the statements above as I bought 5 of these 2025 LE Picklocks and they're built solid. They are snappy, with tight tolerances, and on a beefier frame!! Great knives!

Whomever acquires it will definitely be happy with it!

Sorry, not trying to be a shill, I just finished re-oiling ...

Yeah, he's a solid dude!

I recently picked up one of his butterfly "letter openers!" It looks like a brass pocket pen!!

Fun little novelty piece!

I'm not sure I've ever seen a honey horn worn so well on an older knife!! That one's a real beauty!!

That offer seems fair! I don't have one but I've always wanted a knuckle knife to add to my collection. There was an AGA version that someone mangled offered on one of the popular websites recently. If I recall, it had started life as a Frosolone too! Nonetheless, I think if I ever get one, I'd ...

Wow! Super nice example!! I wish I had picked one up a couple years ago because I haven't had any luck finding a nice vintage Latama recently after deciding I should add one to my collection. You've got a true heirloom there brother!!

Ram's horn shrinks badly.


No, please! :(

Seriously, I know it's true, and I do my best to properly maintain my knives. Do you know if there's any specific routine one can follow for Ram's Horn to mitigate shrinkage? Is there a Polish or treatment that helps slow it from drying out and ...
