Pocketknives - Timeless Treasures In Steel

It's the thrill of owning your first Pocketknife that lures thousands of young men and women into the knife collecting hobby each year. For many of us, it was that memorable trip to the local Hardware store to pick out our shiny new Whittler. For others, it may be their much-anticipated first Cub Scout or Boy Scout knife found hidden under the Christmas tree. The Pocketknife is offered in countless variations, which add to the mystique of collecting. Some of the more popular patterns include the Whittler, Stockman, Trapper, Jackknife, Muskrat, Peanut, Canoe, Toothpick, Congress, Doctors, Swing Guard and Gunstock. No wonder Pocketknives are such a treasured possession, and have been for centuries. Pocketknives, such as the Single Blade Toothpick and Multi-Blade Stockman, are pure using knives, designed and built specifically for cutting twine, wood, leather, paring an apple and of course skinning small game. Function and versatility are the key elements, as they have been handed down for centuries, as the right of passage from Father to Son.
