The News from ElephantToenails.com

A B Haines

Many of you may remember Mr. Haines as a big time toenail collector from years gone by. In fact, I interviewed him for us here at ET.com (See Old Timers on homepage main menu) back in Nov. 2002. While no longer chasing toenails, Mr. Haines remains passionate about collecting knives. Well, today I had the opportunity to visit with him by phone.

Mr. Haines called today after receiving a mailer from my company pertaining to some work were are doing in his hometown. We spoke and agreed to meet when I visit his town in the next few weeks. It was very refreshing to once again speak with a collector as enthusiastic about old knives and history as he is. I look forward to sitting down with him. I’ll probably take a few knives with me when I do.
