Hello my friends,
Again fund is needed and these 3 has to leave.
1. Wester bros. New York - Wester Bros. Cutlery Co. c. 1904-1967 , I believe this one is an early production. The info I found is that originally founded 1891 as Jacoby & Wester. Bought Jacoby out and changed name to Wester Bros. in 1904 Sole importer of Wester & Butz of Solingen, Germany. When WWI began, imports from Germany stopped, and then contracted with U.S. factories. In 1915 were called Wester-Stone Inc. Named used for short period and then back to Wester Bros. After the war they imported from Germany again. Herbert Wester became owner and mgr. By 1949 they were located at 71 Murray St, NYC.
The knife is 3.25" closed. Bone has great old worn look. Iron bolsters. Small blade has no snap but firm open and close and can be used. Main blade is worn but snaps fine and has long life ahead, note the long pull.SOLD shipped with tracking number.
2. Case XX USA 5 dots 62032 Texas jack, 1985 Production mint condition, no issues other than some spots on the tip of the main blade. nice green bone. Solid knife. 47$ shipped with tracking number.
3. Keen Kutter barlow 829 pattern, mint condition, saw cut bone. Large blade front tang stamped KEEN KUTTER, rear tang stamped 829. Knife looks like very little use and have some patina. The scales are undamaged but there is a natural flaw and it probably left by the factory that way it appears as a crack but it is a scratch. Approx. 3 1/4 closed. It is probably Camillus manufacture made for Shapleigh c 1940' - 50's . 60$ shipped with tracking number.

This Winchester tear drop jack by Queen. Great price, cost more even on the bay. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/991013-Winchester-teardrop-jack-by-Queen-Repost
