Re: Henckles and the Americans
Yeah Bill, the knives are much cheaper. My son and his wife live in the central part of your state. They are musicians, and are not famous so they are not wealthy (unlike some other residents of their area). Housing prices there have skyrocketed!

Re: Henckles and the Americans
Thanks for the feedback. I don't own any of those models either, but would like to. The issue is that nice examples cost as much as a small house

Re: Stag Handled Lever Lock
The two on the left are from the first run which is evident by the lack of the trademark sign after "Leverletto". The two on the right are dyed bone.

Henckles and the Americans
Bill - Henckles and the Americans - sounds like a good name for a band - maybe you could be their bass player :D Seriously, I have a question. I remember you mentioning that you have repaired many Henckles, as well as Case and other(?) American leverlocks, and that many of the components were identi...

Re: Frenchi94 switchblade collection

Re: 8" Edwin Jay/ Coricama
