·I have a mixture of old Case kitchen knives and Ontario Forge ones, both are good high carbon blades though the Case are better.
Anyone else collect knives?

·Being a retired Boatswain mate in the US Navy a deck knife was part of our trade so I collected them. One of them a Camillus deck knife was issued to me when I striked BM as a E-3 in 1981. We use to make our own knife sheaves with a spot for a marline spike did have a case sidewinder pocket knife I got at the ships store that sheave was for but some when I worked at a sail loft at NAS Alameda stole it when I left it on the table. Dam the case sidewinders sale for a few 100 bucks on fleabay these days.
And I picked these up through the years US Issued knifes from WW2 and the Korean war.

The Sheath is plastic or more likely Bakelite. The blade looks like that of the KABAR but the grooved stacked washer grip looks longer than a KABAR grip.
At some point the sheath had something rectangular (a whet rock?) bonded to the front surface but its long gone.
When a youngster I had a WW2 era Camillus made hatchet head. The steel was not really suited to the purpose and I ended up breaking it. That hatchet would take and hold a true razor edge.
A friend had a Sea Scouts Shrade Walden switch blade that resembled the old style boy scout knife.

·My brother said that he had an old Scout knife that was " a bit rough ", and would I be able to spruce it up for him.
He sent it!
" a bit rough " Master of the understatement, my brother. 🙄
Had to make a new pommel, other than that,and fibre spacers at guard and pommel, all original.
"Before" pic is the top one, by the way.😁
