Re: 60's Swedged Swinguard Stiletto Switchblade Set

There were a handful of sellers back in the late 70s on: Crowley, Monica Smidts, Bill Todd, Tios Imports, Bob Tack ( Bob T Still around), Adams Intl ( Barry Adams still around), Phils Fine Cutlery, and a few others. Crowley was a salesman in a store and he used that address to get his cutlery produc...

Crowley prints...the old days! I wonder what he did when he got out? I assume he no longer sold knives....Never heard of him again.....

Re: Due Buoi Edge

I agree that it should be factory sharp, very sharp! The blade style is not the most useful, but as a teen I carried a 11" bayo everyday and it had a nice factory edge on it and cut everthing I needed it too!

Re: NAILED ONE ;] :] !!!!

I am going to try to get out fishing for a bit today. I have caught turtles last four times out! I did not want to but they keep taking the bait. Two were snappers one with a 23" shell and one about 14". They look like prehistoric monsters out of the water! I hope the fish are biting! I picked up a ...

Al any fis...

Re: 60's Swedged Swinguard Stiletto Switchblade Set

I am 51 and I do strongly think he is my senior by a year or two, but I will check with him. Either way he is a great guy, and I have never heard him tell a tall tale yet, and we have spent hours on knife talks.....He will deal a bit if you know him. Now there is another guy from the same neck of th...

The collection was bought about 8 to 9 years ago and they were all in the plastic selves they came in. The owner had them for years. I am not an...
