[@osbaldohernandez9174]

When it’s a long video you know it’s gonna be good

[@littlemanscorner1718]

Gerber is a killer peice. That Western fixed blade too. Good haul Mr Hunter

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!!

[@richardvirchow3390]

I have a Kershaw Leek and a Blur and you got a TERRIFIC bargain on those knives. Congratulations. Thanks for allowing me to tag along on your knife hunting expeditions.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you and thanks for watching!

[@ryanmcintyre2587]

Was yelling at my TV that you missed out on OKC spec ops for cheap 😮.. until i seen the end!! Great eye!

[@Kodiak_Edge]

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.

[@billyj.williams2341]

That's a Gerber Magnum folding hunter. Early 1980s. They were quite expensive for the time and are very collectible today as far as Gerber goes. Other good finds today as well. As always, love the videos.... hope you enjoy the ATL Blade Show. SF brother.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks for the info!! Thank you for watching!! God Bless!

[@dannyjackson2062]

id be going back to that antique store...lots of knives & reasonable

[@10gaugeTroy]

Good morning everyone!!!!

[@theknifedoctor]

Good morning!!

[@knifecoop001]

Enjoy the Blade Show!

[@theknifedoctor]

We had an awesome time

[@TimothyCibula-vh5ip]

Awesome knife haul good knives love that western I got one I used to use on deer and turtles hold good edge

[@JhaeMo777]

Nice Kevin. Have a great and safe trip to the show.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks 👍

[@bruceowens3258]

I screamed at you😮 !!! I said : What are you doing! Go back, get that Ontario fighter 😮 !!! I got two, DOC! Great knives... 😆 Lol ! Anyways 🤔, Great job. You bought well 😄 Semper Fi Marine 💪...

[@DimepieceCustomWorks]

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]

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.

[@robertsova71189]

Awesome pawn shops! The pawn shops in my area if Ohio suck as far as pocket knives forsale, not many people around here appreciate pocket knives like the older generations did.

[@WoodsmanHobo777]

You got a good deal on that Ontario fighting knife. They are not being made anymore. The knife is made in New York

[@KevinCummins-n3j]

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.

[@GeorgeT6566]

The two Kershaw's you picked up was a real good buy. I buy a lot of Kershaw's and would have grabbed them up real quick. Thanks for the Video.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!!

[@KenpoFish]

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.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you! Yeah, they had $40 on that Blur. I didn’t see the other one though. Thanks for watching and we did have a wonderful time!

[@timlovingood1346]

That gerber is selling for $260 at Arizna custom knives. Great find!

[@Freedom2219]

Love the Gerber

[@charlesjordan7857]

Stay sharp Brother !!!

[@jamesstork5544]

The Sharp brand lockback made in Japan is really nice knife. They are built well. I pick them up whenever I see them. Take care.

[@DavyCrockett101]

I'm a Japan Fan . As well as everything else ,only bad name is Pakistan to me. 😂

[@Wanderer3-]

That craftsman knife is awesome I have many older American made craftsman tools. Can't beat American made craftsman

[@federicogarcia4950]

[@stephenjeffrey75]

Great haul! Enjoy the blade show and safe trip.🙏

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks. We had an awesome time!

[@Kodiak_Edge]

Talking about Ken Onion knives weren't we lol, anyways the Ken Onion Kershaw Flash is $98.00 new today I was lucky to get mine for $10.00 in the box new at a garage sale last year I have three of them now yours is the green iodized aluminium handle with the bead blast finish rubber trac-tec inserts grip, mine is the Black Iodized with a stone washed finish blade steel is on yours and mine is 14c28n hollow ground drop points. that leek you got is a Black out Leek that is on sale at knife center for $64.99 and is a hollow ground Wharncliffe cerikote black blade made from also 14c28n like the flash and also your leek is a frame lock not a liner lock even though they do offer the leeks in both frame and liner lock but yours is a frame lock.

[@standsproud]

I love your videos. You are so genuine. I really enjoy your music at the end as well. I found you 3 months ago and just can't stop watching your videos. Thank you for being you.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it.

[@ihrescue]

Great video. I learn a great deal from your purchases and approach. Look forward to seeing your shop plans. I think your view on putting money into the shop and fixing up old knives is a spot on niche.

[@Gingerbeard_69]

Great video doc! God bless you and your family!

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks so much for watching and always supporting!

[@Bulldogshaw1]

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 KZbin 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

[@Bulldogshaw1]

My name is Ron Shaw

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks Ron! I’m glad you’re watching and supporting my channel. Hope you have a fast healing. God Bless you sir!

[@jonpondi1206]

I looked for you at Blade show today but didn't see you. Me and my son stayed a long time. I am wore out. Back home now.

[@theknifedoctor]

I hate I missed you! Glad you made it home!

Good morning KnifeDoctor

[@theknifedoctor]

Good morning!!

[@stevenpotter-en2me]

Good looking 70s Gerber,Buddy! Glad yall had a good time,I love old things ,in general. Right now I'm super interested in trying to locate old USA Wrenches. I enjoy them,and they hold value well. Especially if you're patient enough to try and put together complete sets. I'm over here near Crestview, Florida in the Panhandle. I like your Channel, you're good guy doing cool stuff. Take care

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!! My son lives down below you in P.C.

[@gavinreddig3969]

Highly recommend going to the microtech booth and picking up a BladeShow edition ultratech. They sell them at half the price at the show

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you. Maybe next year.

[@Stephen-d7k]

I have a Craftsman camp knife like that in my collection.

[@mikemcwilliams961]

Nice haul today Doc!

[@howardkayecrabyman]

Great video, the traffic in Atlanta is worse than Chicago I told my daughter I will never drive to see her again 😢. You did good again 👍. Are you going to meet up with the boys at the show? Have fun and don't cut yourself. GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸 🙏

[@theknifedoctor]

I met a few of them. I didn’t get on the interstate and it was not that bad at all. Straight up Hwy 19. Led me straight to the Event. Drove right beside Mercedes Stadium too. Nice little drive.

[@TonyBaroni]

The Gerber looks like what they called a Gerber Magnum Blade 97223. Saw one sold a while back for $125.

[@theknifedoctor]

It’s a great Knife!

[@lummindnable]

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...

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks for sharing this!!

[@christianmcbride9905]

That is a beautiful Getber lockback, back in the day Gerber made some wonderful pocketknives! Hope you have a wonderful Blade Show, one of thes days im going to get myself out to that event. Cant wait to see your BS footage, god bless

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!!

[@esfwr17]

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.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!!

[@ShadowR-jz2cw]

Going to flee market in Raleigh NC Tomo .wish me good knife hunting

[@theknifedoctor]

I hope you found some great deals.

[@jerryphillips5112]

Great Video brother 😊

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks. Appreciate it!

[@fredcox6994]

Forgive me if I'm telling you something you already know, but Rostfrei is not a brand, it means rust free or stainless. When you looked at the one switchblade, it seemed you were unaware. Anyway another great haul. Love the Gerber.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks for the info!

[@thomastommy1192]

Awesome video thumbs up. I hope you have a fun safe trip.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks so much. We had an awesome time! Back home safe and sound.

[@bobbyd4400]

Every time i get a new knife i see the same models in the video lol

[@WhippleUniverse]

Great deals

[@christripptripp797]

My cousin has our booth at the blade show right by Alpha knife supply. Rebel Knife Works. He might have some of mine there if they haven't sold out. Smith Fork Cutlery is mine.

[@theknifedoctor]

That’s Awesome!! Wish I would have gotten to this comment before I went.

[@christripptripp797]

@theknifedr-edc it's ok, there'll be other shows. I'm behind on production or I'd have been down in Atlanta with him. I only had a couple knives there with him and I think he sold them while setting up during the week.

[@terrell48]

That Western fixed blade that had the loose guard. I was wondering some of those knives have a nut in the handle tip that can be tightened I could not see that, but I was wondering if that end cap could be tightened down somehow to pull that all back tight??

[@theknifedoctor]

It’s pinned.

[@MomoJRchalifoux]

Thé Gerber 🤩🤩✌️👌👌♥️🇨🇦

I want the crasman

[@gmanblack9198]

The gerber is a magnum.

[@RoubidouxCreekOutdoors]

Doc I’m glad you found some that was in reasoning . It’s getting out of hand for sure and slim pickings. I hit up 10 locations in prime areas of the Midwest with in two days and 400 Sq miles . I found some stuff but man it was intense and kinda wore me out lol . I should have found more stuff and what I found was scratching the bottom of the barrel . I got my eye on a buck that was 45$ . If it’s meant to be it will be meant to be lol. Have fun at the Expo !!!!!

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks man! 400 miles…WOW

[@RoubidouxCreekOutdoors]

@@theknifedoctor 400 square miles I meant

[@davew5583]

@The Knife Doctor I’d have paid all the money for Western. Just watched further. I agree with your thinking, do the spacer, rather than just glue.

I was thinking oiling or treating the leather may take up the space?

[@theknifedoctor]

Yeah. I’m doing the G10 spacer.

[@osbaldohernandez9174]

Knife doctor you should get that other western knife at the first pawn shop

[@theknifedoctor]

I know. Isn’t that weird??! I didn’t know if anyone saw that.

[@osbaldohernandez9174]

@@theknifedoctor I’d say go check it out again see what price is on it

Just finished watching the road trip video and was wondering if you were interested in selling the fixed blade Western knife ? Great find.

[@theknifedoctor]

No. It’s a keeper. Thanks for reaching out!

[@cheesymoonworkshop]

You need to get a laser pointer for those cases.

[@theknifedoctor]

Yes I do!! LOL GREAT IDEA!

Wanted to go to blade show but not gonna make it. I did pick up that mini bench grinder at harbor freight along with 4 fiber wheels half way there on restoring knives just waiting on my 1x30 sander already got the belts and the strop

30 dollars for a one day admission, I only live 15 miles away . Probably will pass on going.

[@NathanWade-nr5vw]

That Parker&edwards is a USA made

[@theknifedoctor]

I know. Just not a big fan. Some and most are Japan.

[@angelpagan5289]

I was going to say they were ripping you off with the imperal folder. But then it turns out its an old knife. Thus meaning its potentially made in the US or Ireland.( i still think they ripped you off because a new imperal folder would cost you about 10 dollars)

[@RelentlessRevolver7]

Rostfrei means Stainless but im sure you know that.

Kevin ggo to the Balisong championship and watch them amazing boys flip them knives at 12:45 and if you want to meet allot of the worlds collectors and knife makers go to the after hours Party in the pit it's a great time you will meet allot of famouse knife maker in the industry around the world and share a drink bullshitn about knives they are full of knowledge!! collectors to, outside the blade show in the Renaissance Waverly hotel parking lot each night after hours starting at 4;30 pm. have fun my friend !!
