    Classic knives.

    That's a fatty. I think this Solingen is the only peened split tang in my collection...a practice that goes back centuries to early sword making.

    Pretty safe to say, very old knife. Why a knife; there was pine tar on the blunt bottom end to help hold it in a handle. Only the edges are sharp, like razors. A spear point would have had a sharp tip. And it's nearly 4" long.

    Cool stuff. Number 'One' rock looks like the edges have been knapped, may be artifact. Third one looks like slag, have you run a magnet across it?

    Western Knifes go back to Boulder Co, 1911. The name Coleman appears on Western knifes or sheath snaps 1984 to 1992. My uncle sent me this Western/ Coleman skinner last year. He says his mother in law bought it new in Tucson in the mid 1980s when he claims Western had a knife plant there.

    Math wasn't your strong suit? $55.00 x 5 is $275. But thanks, yeah I'm selling this but my newest claim is strictly dry washing. It's a fabulous hobby that can pay back if done right.

    I was putting my old knives together for a thread too. I like that knife, the blade profile and handle, sweet. Looks similar to a knife I made my cousin a couple years ago from an old saw blade and an oak handle.

    Fire Ban

    Fixed it for ya. My rural neighborhood was on fire twice last year due to ignoramuses having fires at home.
  16. Just last week, the state website said “boating falls within the outdoor activities permitted under the order.” Now the Dem Gov hits reverse again. Libs were bat chit crazy before eating bats were cool.

    Did you read the link I provided? The Japanese surrender wouldnt go forward until Wainwright was located and brought to Tokyo Bay.

    I knew the PT boat commander that removed MacArthur from Corregidor. After the mission the PT squadron returned to their base in Palawan just as the base commander was surrendering to the Japanese. He was given the choice of surrendering or fleeing into the jungle. He did the latter and spent the War with a band of Filipino guerillas.
