Here's a 525 anvil knife... It's unsharpened and is stamped two times with 100 year Anniversary on the back... Just different... So is this a 100 year Anniversary knife or a 1 of a kind??? :eek: Thanks for looking... ITE

Certainly, a rare 100yr. Anniversary knife . How rare, I'm not sure . Someone more experienced with this model needs to come along . Thanks lucky 'E' for posting . DM

Hi Armand,

Thanks for sharing your photo. I like the fish print & 100yr logo. But, what the hell is with that odd blade?

John, it's just unsharpened... That's just the way the blades are before they sharpen them to a point... ITE ... :thumbup:

That's pretty cool Armand to have a knife that didn't hit the last stage in the production process.I guess you could say it's uncircumcised. :eek:
 
I guess it got that far and quality cotrol went "oops" and pulled it off the line. I'd take it with you next time and let Leroy sharpen it to spec, I bet it is then very rare.

I'm thinking it jumped into an employees pocket before it reached the sharpening bench.:eek::confused:

I hope not:thumbdn: I figgered that there shouldnt be 2 100th stamps, only 1 centered-anyone know for sure?
Haebbie has to have one or two dont he?
 
Most likely it was used as a set-up knife for the logo and then lunchboxed its way out of here...

Fritz, I think it's more rare the the way it is... I think I will leave it the way it is... I didn't get this one from a ex-employee... and that's rare... :eek: ... LOL ... ITE

Yes, Fritz, I have one with a 100th stamp. Otherwise I don't know anything
for shure. But I assume, that ITE's knife was sorted out because of a quality
lack and they took it out of the rubbysh again to try out the quality of the stamps.
I think Buck will never sell a knife with such a bad stamp. So the knife went
into the rubbish again, where anybody foud it. These are my thoughts when
I see the pictures.

Best,
Haebbie
