What did you have to do to the notch to fix it?

I just enhanced it a little/pushed it forward with my 1x30" belt grinder. I do this to most slip joints (did to my matching Zulu as well), and many modern folders. Gets the heel of the cutting edge to clear the radius of the plunge grind and removes the ensuing bevel flare/recurve. When I started collecting knives, I had a few things that were pet peeves, including that flare, and it's one that remains a pet peeve. It's really nitpicky, but I know myself well enough to know to just do it so I won't think about it.

I wanted to post this here because there was some discussion about a month ago about long pulls that extend into the tang. This Barlow by Bryant Hollinger is 3 5/8’s and has a long pull going into the tang. I would never have known it was a thing without learning that here.

Just came in! This has been something of a grail knife of mine & thanks to a generous porch member who was willing to part with it I now have finally obtained one!

I am going to pass the blame on to birdsbeaks and pat9198 ...... who enabled me in the first place !
It does fall short in size compared to the old granddaddies ...... they are both nice though.
I love your old Remington !
I might rub on my bolsters a little more, after seeing yours. Thank you back for enabling me.

New to me 62 that I was excited to have come my way. I really enjoy the stronger pulls on these blades.

Camillus 33 Easy Open.1930s to 1945. (3.25 inches closed)

EDIT 04/24/24:
In researching the Camillus, I found out The Camillus 33 was one of two US Navy and Coast Guard issued Utility Knives during WW2. (the other one had a Marlin Spike.)
I don't know if this beauty was one of them.

I have been unable to find any Robeson military contract folding knives other than they were among the suppliers of the Signal Corp's TL-29 during WW2.
In both World Wars Robeson did supply some of the more important/ famous non folding "Fighting Knives" to the US military and her Allies.

QUESTION FOR ANY ROBESON EXPERT(s):
At 4 3/8 inches closed with a 3 3/8 inch main blade (bolster to tip) would the 622110 be considered a "large" or "extra large" jack knife, or a "folding hunter" like a similar size "Coke Bottle" or "coffin jack" was?

I have been unable to find any 622110 specific information on line.

GEC did a nice job on those, didn’t they? I initially passed on them, but was able to pick one up a little later (at a slight discount, even) and I’m glad I did.

Been pretty lucky on the auction site as of late, I’ve been searching for a stag ez pocket congress to pair with my courthouse whittler for years. Stag isn’t as interesting as the courthouse whittler that it should yellow with some pocket time quite nicely.

Lucked into these two canal street punch knives as well. Market has been soft on them for some reason.

Tribal lock is the first newer Case I have purchased in a while. It’s a really nice example with CV steel. GEC 74 and 78 are a really handy pattern in the single blade configurations.

I finally got around to taking pics of my newest, a #13 Clerk in cocobolo. This is a beautiful, light, slender, versatile knife that packs a lot of blade into the slight frame.
