    Congratulations on the finds. These shopping videos you get together with your friends are definitely my favorites. I’m a huge collector of premium high quality switch blades and of course other knives. Could you please start showing some switch blades what you see them ? I have had surgery on my foot and came close to losing it. I have been watching so much CZcams videos and just wanted to also say thank you for taking my mind off of all the bad stuff in my life. You are helping me with my depression of not being able to enjoy life. Things are looking up for me. Thanks again for your videos. Have a wonderful day

    To fix the guard on your western knife get JB weld and squeeze it in under the guard that meets the plastic or leather handle piece after you clamp the handle in your vise tight wrap the handle with leather or cloth so your don't mar it up in the vise now get two sliding wood clamps that opens far enough to clamp on both sides of the brass guard to the other end of your vise jaws at the back of the handle to clamp it up while in the vise tight there will be jb weld squeeze out when clamped up just clean it up when it is clamped with acetone and some rags I also put tape on the blade where the ricasso meets the guard about ab 1/8 inch up so i can clean up around the guard.Let it stay clamped up in vise over night.

    That knife @19:22 is an OKC (Ontario Knife Company) one of the oldest knife manufacturers in the USA. They make the old hickory line of knives, and a full line of SP (Spec Plus) knives. Lots of them designed for military use. I have the SP10 Marine Raider Bowie that I made a video about recently building a leather survival pack using that knife as the base. Sadly OKC shut their legendary doors recently. So if you find any on your knife hunts I would recommend picking them up if they tickle your fancy when you see them because they just keep going up in price on the secondary market.
    *edit - just got to the part of the video where you called and bought it, glad you did. For that price, it's almost unbeatable.

    • @theknifedoctor
      @theknifedoctor  Před měsícem +1

      Thanks man for sharing this!! Yeah. I was going to look at it in the Pawn Shop. I forgot to look at it. When I got to the Hotel, I looked it up and couldn’t believe I didn’t buy it. I gave $35 shipped. Every where they are sold out.

    Nice haul. Place where you got the OD Kershaw, on that middle shelf all the way on the left was, I believe, a Buck OD Bucklite 422 like the one you reshaped the blade on a few months back. And I think there was a partially serrated Blur laying next to the OD one you got. Maybe on your way back home you can stop back in and double check. You and the Knife Nurse enjoy the blade show and have a blessed weekend.

    Solid buy on that Gerber folding hunter. The blade shape and finger grooves aee always so satisfying to me, and theyre built like tanks. Ive been looking for a sheath for mine for a while. Also, those other prices were also quite high. $70 for that camillus leverlock is like twice the normal price, though the leverlock mechanism is pretty sweet if you like fidgeting lol. Great video doc.

    Hi Kevin, I have seen you look at a Sharp brand pocket knife a couple of times recently. They were sold by Kmart in the '80's. Made in Japan. I have a 300 that is my EDC. It holds an edge much better than some of my better quality knives.

    A knife like that western fixed blade is similar to the knife i carried when I was young.
    Far as i know the version I had was carried through ww2 by my grandfather.
    I think mine was a fifteenth brand though? Kbar perhaps?
    Wish i still had it but it broke.
    I was listening to talk annoy repairing the loose guard, and i know you know more than me about them old knives. What i used to do was take very thin, and strong wire and wrap a half hitch between the guard and the handle and continue to wrap it until the wiggle was gone then go one wrap past that. Should last indefinitely.
    Works on any leather handled fixed blades.
    Can't recall who taught it to me...
