Gumming up the Works

Gumming up the Works

  It comes and leaves about before you can even really blink. I’d argue it’s the very definition of ‘here today, gone tomorrow’.  I’ll stop beating around the bush and just say what I’m talking about here: Bubba gum handles. They’re the type of thing that we can’t ever keep on hand. An order might […]

Looking at perspectives

Looking at perspectives

There’s a lot interesting I can say regarding the knife industry. Upcoming releases, new designs, twists on old ones, shows, podcasts, events, you name it. But I think what makes the industry so compelling is the community behind it. It seems like everyone with some interest to collecting or even simply owning a knife has […]

Going Whole Hog

Going Whole Hog

I’ve always admired a bike rider. I’ve never had the guts for it myself, being that close to pavement buzzing under you at anything above thirty miles an hour seems like an invitation to terror, if you ask me. But I’ll freely say the designs and look of a classic motorcycle is something to behold. […]

Loafing Around

Loafing Around

Hard to think that popping two pieces of bread into a toaster is a revolutionary act, but, well up until the late 1920’s, it was. While the idea of sliced bread wasn’t a revolutionary concept—John Montagu, also known as the aptly-named 4th Earl of Sandwich, was eating the things during his poker games all the […]

Smashing Pumpkins

Smashing Pumpkins

In the late 60s and early 70’s the pocket knife craze was alive and in full swing. Any hardware store worth their salt would have a good collection to choose from, and if they were a Case, you’d be seeing the bright orange of the pumpkin boxes behind the shelf. Originally, these boxes were used […]

Bill of Rights

Bill of Rights

The Bill of Rights is one of our keystones as Americans. A set of unshakable, inalienable rights granted to us due to being citizens of the United States. Honoring this document in our upcoming auction in June is a Bill of Rights knife by none-other than Linda Karst. So I got to thinking, and realized […]

Red Cross Knives

Red Cross Knives

At the Oregon Knife Collector’s Show earlier on in the month, we came across quite the interesting fella. His forte? Hobo knives. He had a massive display of Hobo knives, it was quite the sight to see. His collection consisted of hobo patterns of all eras, but a certain vintage caught our eye, WW1 vintage […]

Bowie

Bowie

The 10th marks the birthday of one of the most influential men to walk the wilderness. A man that has ascended from a humble beginning in Kentucky and into the pages of history with his roguish deeds and tales of adventure. James Bowie, or Jim as he was more commonly called, was a man of […]

The PBR Results Are In!

The PBR Results Are In!

After a grueling event, the proverbial dust has settled and the PBR World Finals have been decided. It was a hard-won neck-and-neck battle between three of the bull riding scene’s greats for the title of world’s champ: Kaique Pacheco, JB Mauney, and Cooper Davis. In the end, it was Davis that took the title, netting […]
