Pocket knives .. that's the display I am working on now, but cleaning and treating them is taking forever.

Those are some Great looking pocket watches. I have never found a pocket watch, though I did find the working gears to one some time ago. Thanks for sharing these. Well Done.

I've found a few over the years but not one whole one except the one I made off with after 30 years of working for a living. It didn't work from the beginning and it left a bad taste in my mouth!

I still haven't pried the back off this to see if there is an inscription. Silver, with a bull. Maybe it's railroad related. Maybe it's from one of the wealthy gold miners from the Cripple Creek mining district!

What a cool relic! It is beautiful in its current form.. I can only imagine how pretty it was when it was new! Thanks for sharing!

It's shot to heck but I was so happy to dig it. The fob is sweet.
