I was very pleasantly surprised. It’s much more than knives. Numerous booths and the shop is big. I was impressed as soon as I stepped in the shop. It was spacious and clean. Their merchandise, of course, is dependent on the individual booth owners, but there’s lots to see and buy. The shop owners are also very helpful and pleasant.
So glad you enjoyed your visit with us! And thank you for the awesome review!

Pappy’s offers an excellent experience for new collectors. I took my son there to pick out a collectible Case knife for his birthday, and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. They were incredibly patient, showing us every knife we wanted to see while sharing valuable knowledge and expert advice to help us make the perfect choice. The level of service and attention to detail made the experience truly special.
We are so glad you enjoyed your experience and happy to help! Thank you for the awesome review!

I went for the knives and wasn’t disappointed — Incredible selection and I found an excellent mother-of pearl pocket knife. We also enjoyed the selection of antiques and decor items. It’s a big place and they have plans to make it much larger. We’ll be back!
We're glad you liked the store, and thanks for the great review!

If you are a collector of knives this is a place you have to visit. They have just moved down the street into a different building and still needs more room. I visit a lot of antique stores but this one is supper, now mind you they are still getting things straighted out but it’s great place to shop. The staff is very friendly and just the kind of place you want to shop. Main Street Springfield stop in.
Thanks for the awesome review! Come back and see us soon!
Adam
Very cool shop. Very large selection of Case knives. They sell some snacks and drinks at the checkout register. The majority of the store is antiques booths. A few of them were more modern items but an interesting variety, for sure. I look forward to coming back to see what new items get added to the vendor booths. The staff was friendly and the store was clean. Free public parking right next door. Will be back!
Thank you for such a wonderful review Adam! Come back and visit soon!

I went in looking for something interesting and different for my new home. Found not one but two pieces that will be perfect for what I want. So many pretty things and I had so little time. Pappy’s can look for me because I will definitely be back! Everyone was so nice and helpful. I recommend you take time to go by and see them!
Thank you so much Sandy! We are so glad you were able to find pieces that would work for you! Come back and see us soon!
