Ive gotten way over-knifed recently, so time to thin out the collection. Im breaking these down into three groups:
1st Group: new or almost new, with factory edge.
2nd Group: sharpened and lightly used.
3rd Group: offered at a bargain price as a lotthe first 2 knives have cosmetic issues with the blades and the last one is a nice but inexpensive knife.
Family shot of the 1st Group (new/like new):
1) GEC Tidioute #252115 in Burnt Orange Jigged Bone.
Very slightly used with the beginnings of a patina. Has factory edge, which is well done. Moderate pull, centered blade.
Includes tube and wax paper. $65.00 SOLD
　
2) Case Humpback Stockman in Harvest Orange Pocket Worn Jigged Bone.
New and unused. Very pretty bone and "1st Run" (inside a Case "C") is etched on main spear blade. The sheepie can be a little hard to open at times (but other times not, which is odd)probably just needs to be broken in. More pics, along with some small mods on another Humpback, here: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1395506-Case-Humpback-Stockman-Goes-to-the-Spa
Includes a Case box & paperwork, but it is not the one from this knife (label says "Stockman Bone Stag"). $50.00 $45.00 SOLD
　
3) Case Half Congress #62052 in Brown Jigged Delrin.
New and unused. 3 5/8" closed. I believe the blades are carbon/CV simply because Case usually puts "SS" on the tang for stainless and thats not present on this one. There are blade rub marks on both blades.
I am thinking this knife is from 1974 based on the tang stamp and this reference: http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com...eference-guide/case-knife-age-identification/ I am no Case expert, though, so no guarantees on that.
No box. WITHDRAWN
4) Case BackPocket in Deep Canyon Dark Red Bone.
New and unused. Well-centered blade (not dead center but close). SS blade. Beautiful knife.
I bought it on a whim, knowing full well I like smaller knives. And I was right, it's too much knife for my purposes.
Includes box & paperwork. WITHDRAWN
5) Case Mini Copperlock in Smooth Green Appaloosa Bone.
New and unused. Beautiful appaloosa bone with the mark side brighter green and the pile side darker with more black interwoven in the green. Box is dated 5/13/98.
Includes box (somewhat worn) & paperwork. $50.00 $45.00 SOLD
6) Case Mini Copperlock in Smooth Chestnut Bone.
New and unused. Lighter shade of the smooth chestnut bone and well matched on both sides.
Copperlocks are great little knives, and I like them even better "de-humped" http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...lock-Joins-the-quot-Formerly-Humped-Club-quot
Includes box & paperwork. WITHDRAWN
7) Case Mini Copperhead in Smooth Persimmon Orange Bone.
New and unused. I have 2 and am keeping one. I now understand why these knives have such loyal fansthey are extremely handy little knives.
Includes box & paperwork. WITHDRAWN
　
8) Case Mini Trapper in Red Jigged Bone.
New and unused. CV blades. The dye looks like it pooled a little around the shield, hence the dark ring. The Mini Trapper is a classic Case pattern and a great size for pocket carry. I have several and tend to prefer the SS, so am selling the CV.
Includes box & paperwork. WITHDRAWN
9) Boker Barlow in brown jigged bone.
New and unused. I believe the blades are carbon steel. Very nice "Boker Tree Brand" engraving on (both sides of) bolster. These barlows are a little smaller and lighter than a typical barlow and very comfortable in hand and pocket. Clip is not centered but no rub. Really nice fit & finish overall. I have multiples so am selling a couple.
If you like barlows, I believe you will like this one.
Includes box & paperwork. WITHDRAWN
10) Boker Barlow in brown jigged bone.
Same knife as above except the bone on this one is a little darker.
No box with this one. $50.00 $45.00 SOLD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now on to the 2nd group (sharpened and lightly used) and 3rd group (bargain lot). I should mention that if you like a knife with a very acute point, several of these fill the bill.
Family shot of the 2nd group (light users) and 3rd group (last 3 are the bargain lot):
11) GEC Tidioute Talon Spear #922114BE (bare end) in Goldenrod Jigged Bone.
Lightly used and in very good condition. Nice patina. I rounded the sharp tang to make it more comfortable in hand and in the pocket. It has been sharpened to a nice edge.
Includes tube and wax paper. $75.00 SOLD
　
12) Case Muskrat in Smooth Persimmon Orange Bone.
Sharpened to nice edges and barely used. The spring sits a bit proud on the mark side when the blade is open. If it bothers you, send the knife in to Casethey take their lifetime warranty seriously: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1088595-Great-Customer-Service-Experience-with-Case
Includes box & paperwork. WITHDRAWN
13) Case Slimline Trapper Utility in Rough Black.
Sharpened to a nice edge, with a real needle point, and very lightly used.
Includes box & paperwork. $29.00 $27.00 SOLD
14) Case Lockback #R61405L SS in Jigged Red Bone.
3 3/4" closed. Very lightly used. Sharp and pointy!
I am thinking this knife is from 1989 based on the tang stamp and this reference: http://www.allaboutpocketknives.com...eference-guide/case-knife-age-identification/ I am no Case expert, though, so I cant guarantee that.
No box. WITHDRAWN
　
15) A.G. Russell 3.0 Titanium Lockback #RUS-P73CQ in Quince Wood.
Sharpened and used a few times. 3" closed. Made in Japan for AGR. VG-10 steel. Very light at .9 oz. Sharp and very pointy. Amazing how much blade A.G. packed into this small frame. The fit & finish on A.G.s Japan knives tends to be superb and this one is no exception. I believe these are now discontinued.
Includes black leather slip and original box. $55.00 SOLD
　
16) A.G. Russell Reverse Congress in Coral Rucarta.
3 1/4" closed. AUS-8A steel. Made in Japan. Sharpened to nice edges and lightly used. Easy pulls. The small wharnie now has a curve to itbit of a mini hawkbilland is very sharp & pointya clamshell destroyer!
The good folks at A.G. Russell told me the model no. is AG-438CR and that these sold for $44.95 (plus shipping) back in 1998 and were big sellers. I have several of these and they are terrific gentlemans knives.
Includes box. $35.00 SOLD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These last 3 are the "bargain lot". WITHDRAWN
17) A.G. Russell Reverse Congress in Black Rucarta.
Same model as above knife but in black. 3 1/4" closed. AUS-8A steel. Made in Japan. Sharpened to nice edges and lightly used. Easy pulls.
The small wharnie has scratching and uneveness along the upper bevel line, but is very sharp.
No box.
18) Boker 240 Half Whittler.
Nice wood scalesIm guessing dark rosewood? 3 1/8" closed. Boker Tree Brand, Solingen, Germany. I believe the blades are carbon steel. Sharpened to nice edges.
The main clip was badly scratched and required radical surgery. It now has a rough satin finish, a slightly different blade shape, and an uneven upper bevel line. Odd looking but a very sharp and thin blade and a great little slicer.
No box.
19) Elk Ridge Lockback in Dark Blue Jigged Bone.
3" closed. Made in China. 440 stainless steel. Blade has movement when closed but locks up tight when open. Surprisingly nice fit & finish. Lightly used and sharp & pointy!
Includes box.
