Yeah, a little bit of everything. Things keep getting rotated in and out.

A really nice set!

Rarely chase the newer items, but this one spoke to me!

Titusville Big Easy Cotton Sampler 1095 Carbon W/ Long Pull 1 of 1 PROTOTYPE 2024 Stone Giraffe Bone

She cleaned up really nice!

Spending the weekend going through this box I got from an estate sale, about 60 knives. Separating them into USA, China (and similar), Germans. Right off I’ve found imperial, shrade, Camillus, boker, and one bulldog so far. Started cleaning them up to see what I’ve got.

The bone on this one is really nice, and I just love me some green!

Wish I had enough period correct knives to fill it, I don’t so I’ll just have to deal with some favorites. Didn’t want to overfill it either, went with less is more.

1950’s just itching to get product in her again!

Another Prototype

Still learning where the limits are, might have taken it too far chasing rust pits

Like new condition, couple of pepper spots but came in the original wood box.

Photos don’t do it justice, you almost want to lick it. 🤪

Worked this rust bucket over today, couldn’t even tell you what it was at the beginning, tang stamp completely buried in rust and crud. Turns out to be a 1946-1950 Camillus Short Line tang stamp. Once cleaned, it’s really a nice carry piece, heavy, and just enough shine to make it proud. Walk and talk a little stiff, CLP will do its thing over time. She’ll walk around with me a few weeks.
