That's my Sunday night reading sorted, thanks for that.
Great stuff. I like info' like that.
I quite fancy collecting SAK's/Wengers but don't seem to see them on car-boots etc that often.
Are there any good books on them ?
Yep great old things.
I have quite a few myself.
Nice. Copper bail & no bottle opener, early ww2 methinks.
Congrats on 20 years
I still have a steel Omega F300 I bought off you around 2005 (I think you were on RLT too then). I must put a battery back in it.
I can't remember what I paid but reckon it'll...
I just read this.
How awful. I remember reading his many posts about vintage Omega's they were always fascinating & he seemed such a knowledgeable & really nice chap.
Truly terrible to die at such...
Hello

Hello all
I'm looking for some advice if anyone can help.
We're looking to sell our house & buy another (we live in England). We own our current house outright & to reduce hassle we are...
That's interesting to know, thank you for that.
Thanks for that, it ties in with what I was thinking that the pins are earlier.
Hmm that's interesting thanks for that, I wonder if the service replacements are perhaps older stock (hence pins) & those actually fitted to watches from new went over to screws later on in...
Hello
Long time without a proper post on here (life gets in the way sometimes..)
Does anyone know if during the production run of the 17000 all steel version, they changed the mechanism for joining...
I just logged on for first time in forever to post a wtb & read this. I'm truly sorry to hear this news Eddie.
My father had Prostate Cancer & he had it for a very long time. He was already a ...

I once encountered a Fox at 7:30 am one weekday morning on the way into work in Preston town centre. It just casually walked past me & wasn't fazed at all. i was more bothered than it was.

Hello
Yep Navy issue jack knife. It'll be Joseph Allen & Sons i'd think not John ( made knives up to 1959 I think). Not that common a maker of this pattern in my experience. Most of these seem to...
Yes indeed all I really meant was for the money, you start thinking about quality control & how well it's put together etc - long term.
Got to say though, certainly appearance & timekeeping wise, so...
I got one the same a few days ago. Matthew was very pleasant to deal with.
Will it last & be reliable, I dunno, but so far it's keeping to +1.5 spd & i'm still slightly shocked at how good it...
That is bloody stunning.
Great job.
Ha ha, I wish i did have all the makes & years of British army knives !
As much as I love the old Army clasp knives (& i'm still trying to collect them all), I do find a Victorinox a handy EDC....
I must admit i'm finding the Victorinox small Tinker a great EDC currently.
Being a touch smaller than a regular Tinker makes it a great pocket carry knife.
That Richards knife is very cool, reminds me of the American scout type knives.
Thanks for posting that.
He's certainly thorough & does a good job.
For my taste it's a bit too new & perfect looking & I never understand why people remove casting lines. However each to their...
