Buying and selling not allowed.

No intention of generating a sale. I'm looking for model numbers of GECs (or another brand) with a primary blade sheeps foot.

I do have this Schrade Old Timer 3 blade traditional with a prominent sheeps foot. It's my user and my Dad gave it to me. NORPAC is North Pacific Paper Corporation and it was probably swag as he was the printing room supervisor in a newspaper company and delt with vendors a lot.

1095 on its way from shiny to dark.

Parts of the spine and the area around the nail nick has been darkened from handling. The other dark from kiwi fruit and the blue, purple and pink colorful bits come from garlic.

The ephemeral nature of patina is a large chunk of its charm. Very reactive steels are especially this way. Of course it can be polished away and darken again later too.

I have this knife, minus the business logo. It's wicked sharp.

Nice.
Thnx. Another one I had to mess with. Simple dye job on the covers and turned one of the pen blades into a tiny clip point. Couldn’t see any reason to put two identical blades on a knife?

Just picked this guy up for my work bag, airsoft bag or family outings etc. I’ve had a number of occasions where I wished I had something like it so now I do. Just have to remember to bring it now!
