Post 2500, and a "new" toy.

#1

Post by vampyrewolf »

OK, if anyone enters contests on BFC, you know that T Erdelyi had one running with a "bday guess". I won a "new" slipjoint for being closest, with a wild guess.



2.5" (cutting edge), modified warncliff, single blade slipjoint. Has some pretty good snap to it. Just sharpened the edge in about 3min on sandpaper. No idea on steel.



Tang markings: top arc, first bit is unreadable, 2nd bit looks like "Howarth"

bottom arc reads "Sheffield Eng"



3 pins in handles, last pin covers the end of the back spacer/spring. pivot pin through bolsters(which appear to be brass)



ground on both sides, and has a swedge to just behind nail nick(both sides).



going to oil it up and carry it for sheeple duty.



http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showt ... did=260571



pretty nice timing, 2500 posts and this same day.



gun con·trol n. definition 1. The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her pantyhose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker received that fatal bullet wound. 2. The ability to hit what you are aiming at. 3. The first key step of a corrupt political agenda where good citizens are disarmed so that a dictatorship may replace a democracy in the future.

Congratulations on your mileage and your new knife as well. Always enjoyed your refreshing topics. They also say Sheffield steels are great. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Then 'reincarnate' with a different username.. say like : 'frog-dude' , 'themadtraveller' or something like that.. <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>
