Please post pics of your knives

Post by Lucentcrow »

I’m pretty new to this hobby and understand that some on here have been on here for years so the novelty has worn off a bit, it would be great if you could all post your old knives because I’d love to see them:)

Cheers fellas I’ll start it off

My favorite style of vintage German knife with its original leather pouch. It is in original uncleaned phenomenal condition. The release mechanism was patented in 1895.

Not many knives made before or after have the fine beautiful qualities like these.

Great knife, Charley. I get the toothpick, but what is that other stand alone piece for?

Could well be, but they look pretty big. The maker must have anticipated the need to remove sizable splinters.

My first auto was a Colonial fishtail I got in the 6th grade which broke in about two weeks of me constantly flipping it open. My second was my first Italian(R.J.Richter)that lasted about two weeks until my 7th grade teacher appropriated it for me opening it in class. Have acquired way too many over the years but my favorite is this one: A Press Button one armed man's knife with fork point and very faint etching that says,"Compliments of the A.A.Marks Co. Maker of Artificial Limbs".
