Thrifting For Knives on a Road Trip to Florida

[@bw4048]

so casual about the shiv in the knife basket

[@neilhart9924]

Glad someone else noticed that. Lol

[@user-iv1in2bd2w]

This has become my favorite channel. I’m 20 and have lost both of my grandads who were both veterans (one was in Korea, the other Vietnam). I used to go to flea markets with one of them and always had a good time, in fact one of my best memories I have of him is from just a few years ago where we had to chase him down at a flea market after he had taken off in his truck solo to go shopping! Anyways, this channel is just cozy and brings back memories of them! I greatly appreciate it :)

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I wish Grandpa’s never had to leave us. God Bless you.

[@kevinAuman1]

​@@theknifedoctor heyyy, finally someone pronounced Olean NY correctly haha I was born and raised here and let me tell ya sir if you wanting to find ya some old knives then you have to make a trip up this way because we have KaBar, Cutco here in Olean then OKC 15min north in Franklinville and Case cutlery, Zippo 10mins south in Bradford were located in Cattaraugus County where some of the very first pocket knives that were made in the USA were made mid 1800's knives can be seen in just about every pawn shop or antique store you come by... Cheap too

[@jeremynedrow7003]

Knives of Alaska makes great knives. I love the video's brother. Thank You for saving America a little bit at a time.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!! I know about them now!

[@bunsonhoneydew9099]

Looks like it still has a lot of DNA still on it

[@alimuh007]

That combo is over $200 new

[@robertfandel9442]

It's part ulu knife my buddy has every one made knives of Alaska.

[@FORDultra]

@jeremynedrow7003 reading about Knives of Alaska now. They're based in Denison, TX, which is about 30 minutes from me. Small world!

[@b80-s9i]

For a minute, I thought you were gunna pass on that amazing Knives Of Alaska set...I was hollerin "GET IT...GET IT" over & over! I'm glad you decided to man, cause them knives are world-class tools with some of the best edges a man can have, if sharpened correctly!! Well done, good sir!💪😎👍

[@jodydille8612]

I totally was doing the dance thing on that set. Knives of Alaska make great knives. That set is my favorite. They are made with D2 tool steel and are tuff to sharpen.

[@StoneRunning23]

Nice! We love thrifting is the backcountry as well!

[@Orlosthedruid]

That set by Knives of Alaska....I paid over $300 for mine, new, in Ft. Richardson AK, at the PX. That was decades ago. Those knives are the BEST if you hunt or guide. BEST skinning knives EVER. Those round tip blades never poke through hides and slice like razors. You will enjoy them, great trade bait once you cleaned them up and sharpened them.

[@Orlosthedruid]

I just looked up the set I bought, $687.00

[@theknifedoctor]

Thanks for sharing this!!

[@stoffel6348]

Yeah, that was a steal! Not bad for the KaBar too you racked up in that place!

[@nick_t7467]

How does the bead blasted d2 hold up in terms of corrosion? It seems like a bad choice of finish since d2 is already only semi stainless.

[@Blue-ws1io]

The pawn shop didn't lie about the price on the Knives of Alaska, I appreciate his honesty. I'm hooked on your videos. Great content. Please keep doing these, I enjoy them. I only collect the newer/date style of knives, but it is nice to see the classics and the interesting shops that sell them.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you and Thanks for sharing this!!

[@GWS-rl4wh]

Don't be so cheap. You want a knife, old, used, made in America and free. No free or cheap when it comes to old things. Being cheap, you'll own little.

[@spazzlo8356]

@@GWS-rl4wh You obviously have no experience buying refurbishing and selling then, you'll earn little. It favors both the shop and the knife restorer when they buy multiple items at a time and frequent the store quite often.

[@danedwards8535]

You’ll love that little Bear & Son’s farm hand. I picked one up at the blade show and I love it . Have a good time in Florida and enjoy the family.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you sir!! God Bless! I have a few of them already. Just couldn’t pass them up for the price!

[@BryansKnivesKy]

Some good finds! I’d never heard of Knives of Alaska before. Pretty awesome! Enjoy your visit.

[@theknifedoctor]

Me either Bryan!! Love it!

[@lddtyrone]

Knives of alaska was a good find specially with the leather sheath

[@MrG77]

That Knifes of Alaska are cool. The ridges on the back can also be used for a striker for fire. Between them and the Kbar you scored a home run for sure.🙏

[@fjyamaha-fc7cm]

nice stuff you found there, i have never heard of Alaskan knives either and what a great little skinner/paring knife in that set, the 2 Schrade's u found early in this video I have both and in vgc and the Schrade stockman has a factory serrated sheep's foot blade, very rare, all my old collectors clean up nice with fine steel wool, kero, degreeser, wd40, autosole, purple, keep up the good work giving new lives to old knives!

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you and thanks for watching!

[@b80-s9i]

Yessir...you made out like a bandit with the KoA set, also the Kabar is immaculate!! Literally awesome finds brother! God bless y'all🙏🙏

Awesome sir!! Welcome Aboard!

[@ozarksfirewood3936]

Sometimes you have to hunt for a while to find some deals. I was on the hunt last weekend in Branson, MO. All of the places I went to were firm on their prices. They had knives (Schrade, Camillus, etc. with broken, or even missing blades, most of them covered in rust… for $20+ each I did manage to find a Schrade Clip Hanger CH4, never used, for $7. So all was not lost.

[@theknifedoctor]

So true! The clip hangers are good knives! Great price too!

[@kentuckybluegrass8695]

I’ve been searching for a Kabar like that for a year now. That’s a great grab. My neighbor has 10 of those old Queen City cutlery original knives. He won’t come off of them. I have 2 of those old imperials and some old German made knives Hen Roosters. You had a great day.

[@theknifedoctor]

Very cool! Thanks for sharing this!!

[@Retdigger]

Loved your stop in Chipley! My wife and I both were born and raised there. Lots of family still there. I recently stopped at the antique store across from the pawn shop but they didn’t have anything, didn’t have time to go over to the pawn shop. You beat me there, lol.

[@theknifedoctor]

LOL!! That’s Awesome!

[@Stonedog77]

I really like that knives of Alaska set. One of these days I’m going to pick up a K bar as well like your channel.

Those are super rare Knives of Alaska Military Brown Bear Combination Set. Tested by the 21st Special Tactics Squadron in 1996. The set received great reviews from the 21st. I see a set on ebay same setup you have for 500 bucks.

Thank you!!

[@jackasswhiskyandpintobeans9344]

6:42 I've refurbished many a CAMCO. The innards on CAMCO's are solid, it's the scales that make a knife look horrible. It's Derlin or a plastic composite.

KOA makes a smaller knife that looks like the cleaver it’s called a muskrat great for skinning I won’t get rid of mine and once you get used to it and familiarize yourself with it, you’ll take it on every trip. Also knives of Alaska. The grip is known as sure grip and you choose antler or sure grip anger puts a substantial price on the knife so I only get sure grip
