Great video!

I don't trust greedy companies who never care about people safety.

nice ❤

First I've ever heard someone say jigged bone was a synthetic material. Jigged bone is cow bone that's been "jigged", or cut, to add texture to the handle scale.

How do you value uranium glass items?

HI, I'm thinking of starting my own collection of Uranium Glassware. Do you know where I could find some?

I’ve been carrying a Case pocket knife for as long as I can remember and I’m 67 years old. I carry the trapper Buffalo horn handle right now. I thought I lost it once bought gave a hart attack but I found it.

This stuff works great. You should’ve dusted the bottom though, and just removed the dusting out of the video

Yep it’s safe just don’t drink from them, and if you do the uranium can’t be dissolved by stomach acid.

I bought a limited edition case knife set got it home and saw it's made in China on package

Jigged bone is not synthetic, Jigged bone is a natural material used for knife handles that is made by dyeing and jigging cattle bone.

Is it for sale?

Is it for sale?

The older knifes are very nice but I’ve started getting the Christmas trappers (preferably with engravings on the sides) for every year since 2010 and they’ve gained a decent bit of value

i have a uranium glass chalice i sometimes use, and i also have a uranium glass ashtray literally next to my bed. ive used a dosimeter on them and although if you get right up close on it the detectors absolutely screaming, its all alpha and beta so it disappeared to background radiation past around 3-4 inches. its totally harmless.... however NEVER EVER EVER USE FIESTAWARE.... that will literally give you cancer. ive a-b tested fiestaware with both thorium mantles and radium paint on dials, fiestaware is way worse, its really funny, ive got a few bits like an old pocketwatch that are radium painted and the CPM doesnt even come close to a fiestaware pepper pot

Radiation has a lot of struggles getting through glass. So it isn't released in high enough amount to harm people in uranium glass. However, if it is broken it will expose some of the uranium and can become slightly toxic

Uranium is also used in nuclear moms like the little boy and nukes

It both safe and not safe from what I know. If its just sitting there and I believe even used lightly not a problem. The problem comes if its chiped or starts to wear away then you have BIG problems.

We bought some glasses and jugs that we drink from and no problems after 1 year

Hello, I have several very old antiques, approximately 2,000 years old. If you know someone suitable who might be interested in purchasing them, or if you yourself are interested, I can send you photos so you can take a look. Thank you.

It looks like a mini trapper. I’ve seen one like the big one. My gramps had one and called it a bears tooth. He carried it when hunting beaver and bear in the early 80s. He was born in 1920.

Be more intelligent. Why take a risk with this shit?

Watching this 2 years after it was posted, found a mah jong set from the 1920's at the goodwill bins and want to do it justice in one of my first wood restorations! Thank you for the helpful tips

Very informative video, and the collection itself is missive and interesting

Looking for a small green stag handled 3 blade spli back spring case knife

Manganese glass exhibits luminescence similar to uranium glass. The fastest method is to measure with a dosimeter. If you haven't done this, you may be surprised to find that not everything is uranium glass.

Case is crap especially that vandalism steel shit.i can't put a edge on.use outdoor edge or anything with a replaceable blade.

Them 2 by sum

There are a few different types of black light/uv flashlights. (The light band can vary) The one I have will charge glow in the dark items... will it work to find this glass too?

Great vidio

I have a multi color green n red hen on nest I’ve had for years had no idea they could be valuable .

You run a higher radiation risk going out between 10 am and 2 pm. Uranium glass rocks! I’d be delighted to have any of these pieces, especially the ring tree from your last uranium video.

Auto body work maybe

I'm finally starting my Fallout merch display and I plan to thrift a bunch of this to add to the authenticity of it, can't wait

What exactly does double x mean. Enjoy your content thanks

What am I missing…….dont these glass pieces emit gamma rays since they contain uranium?

Imagine thinking that some glass vase is worth 100 bucks.

I have half-pint jar 13

Cattaraugus. Pronounced "cat a raw gus".

First one is a reverse peanut.

Want to sell mine. Glass uranium glass

For hand hewn beams

After watching this video it is very clear that you need to do considerable more research as there are many false comments in this one...see below.

Not interested in making money off the glassware. I am attracted to the color and beauty of glass . It makes me happy .

Hey look everyone Uranium Glass... ya fucking dork

The "hog scraper". I've used one when I was young, but not to scrape the fat off the skin. although it might be used for that as well. But the hog being butchered (after it was dead) was dipped in boiling water mixed with resin. Then the scraper was used to remove the hair from the skin. If you didn't scrape fast enough, the hog had to be dipped again. Not an easy task.

Nice video! Several slight errors here (nothing too drastic) but: (please bear with me) 1) The "bluish aqua" color of those early fruit jars is the normal color of "natural glass" - trace quantities of iron in the sand (nearly all sand contains iron impurities) caused the color. In the case of "Ball Blue" this color resulted from the sand source used by Ball to make the jars. Ball did NOT intentionally create that color. Most of the sand they used for the Ball jars (made in Muncie, IN) came from areas along the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. Much of that sand accidentally had just the "right" percentage of iron to create the shade of blue-aqua. (A nearby glass company also used sand from the same source, Hemingray Glass Company - and many of their insulators from the 1920s are the same or very similar shade of aqua-blue). By 1937 Ball Bros had switched over to (mostly) clear glass so the customer could see the food better. 2) The original Mason patent was actually pertaining to the concept of a "screw threading" on the jar, as compared to other jars that did not have a threaded lip. 3) The numbers on the bases are Mold numbers, not batch numbers. Each mold number just identified the mold installed on the automatic jar blowing machine. Each jar machine would hold usually 8 to 10 molds, each one numbered so if any faults happened with the finished jar, the defective mold could be quickly identified and replaced. MANY, MANY different sets of numbered molds were used over and over for many years, the mold numbers range between 0 and 15, and some are also numbered with a number AND letter, or have backward numbers (which are a little scarcer). 4) The story of the number 13 jars didn't become popular with flea market dealers until the 1980s or '90s so it may OR may not have had a tiny kernel of truth. Whatever the reality of the story, the PERCEPTION of the scarcity has increased the desirability of the mold number 13 so they will normally sell for somewhat more. (SUPPLY AND DEMAND!!) The "13" is actually about the same scarcity as the number 11, 12, 14, and 15 jars, but since they are being snatched up and hoarded by collectors, they SEEM much scarcer. Definitely harder to find in antique stores and flea markets, but common on ebay!

I think you got the metal wrong on the crescent. I worked with berillium as a nuclear material and it is extremly poisonous and is the texture and color of graphite, not of brass.

Where is the best place to start trading case knives ? I have some but I am always looking for deals I can by clean up and resale any info on that and is there a spot I can go research each case knife I have ?
