Knives

[Freebird]

I think it was Luvmy40 that recently posted about knife collecting.  I am not a big collector but there is one style that I buy when I can.  They are getting hard to find.  My preference is Fight 'n Rooster and Bulldog but a couple others also.  Here are most of my small collection.

These are the four specific brands and patterns that I'm always looking for.  From the top.  Fight 'm Rooster, Case, Schatt & Morgsn, and Bulldog. .

And here is a 1984 set of Case commemorative Congress knives that I recently bought but would like to do some trading for any of the above 4 knives.

Thanks.   I was an electrician for about 20 years and the sheepsfoot and wharnecliffe blades just worked very well for stripping wire and etc.   They just stuck as my favorite.

This is mine.  I only have two, but this is what I carry around and I use it everyday.

Very handy and useful.   I used to carry one similar.

I actually just bought another Fight ‘n Rooster.  Not a big fan of mother of pearl but it’s my favorite style and getting hard to find.

  My father carried an electricians knife with him for most of his life.  It was a tradesman's style and was sharpened so many times that it was worn down to a narrow blade..lol..

  When he passed, at the funeral, I put it in his pants pocket so that he'd have it on the other side in case he needed it;

  I miss him.....sniff....
