Description:
We fondly remember our good old friend, Mr. James Hollis Glover, late of Baldwyn, Mississippi. James Hollis traded with us from shortly after we opened in the 1950s until his untimely death a decade ago. More than any other American, James Hollis was responsible for a massive wave of Pakistani-made pocket knives that fairly saturated the Southern and Midwestern markets during the late 1980s and early 1990s. He even sent his supplier plant managers by to visit us when they were in country. Mr. Glover’s knife brand was White Tail Cutlery, slick made and good looking knives with his trademark inked on the obverse of the main blade and the word Pakistan on the reverse. Laminated Micarta handle panels were as good as anybody’s, even though the steel strength left something to be desired. Here is one of Mr. Glover’s most innovative creations, a Canoe Pattern with four blades on the order of the Congress type knives. Where his stockman knives 25 years ago wholesaled in the $2.50 range, these were upwards of $6.00 apiece, so not many of them ever came onto the market. Bolster, blade, liner, and backspring material are all brushed stainless. Blades are, as the photos show, paired spear pattern main blades, each measuring 2 5/8 inches with paired pen blades each of which measures 1 3/4 inches. Overall length closed is 4 1/8 inches; and note the exceptionally strong backspring and bolster setup on this knife. Those measurements are factory original. Backspring strength is excellent, and fit and finish is better than other Pakistani knives from the period. We do not believe this one has ever been sharpened or used; we rate it as Excellent, Near Mint, but photos ought to suffice for prospective owners to judge finish grade for themselves. The present flood of Chinese made knives, of course, spelled the death knell not only for White Tail Cutlery and Pakistani producers, but also for almost all U.S. Made modestly priced cutlery. That flood is so extensive that resale on China made knives is nil. We will not even pay $1.00 apiece for any of them. We’re offering this fine Pakistani Mississippian specimen, however, for only $ 20.00.

Don't let your buddies use your account. Registered user must be the buyer, with his or her own money. Buying firearms and related items for other people can result in felony charges. Don't try, either, to circumvent any law; for example, a California civilian may not buy a high capacity magazine and have it shipped to his brother-in-law in Nevada. That is a felony.
GA Pay buyers are NOT charged until we confirm we have the item and are ready to ship it. The same thing is true for phone-in, fax-in, and mail-in payments. In this respect, and in several others, Guns America outshines all its competitors. This is the best firearms website there is, hands down.
