Another pretty little jack

Blades_Two · Apr 13, 2005

I guess I need to get a life and stop photographing knives. Ah well, here's another pretty little jack.

Very nice, a true gents knife.

You take excellent photos and it's always a pleasure to see them. Thanks!

Thanks, gents. I'm glad you all appreciate it.

Very nice, what does the tang stamp say?

Is that a Pelikan next to it?

Don M · Apr 14, 2005

Yes, that's a nice Pelikan next to it. I can't tell for sure, but it might be the M800. All that's needed to complete my vices is a nice gun for a trio.

Blades_Two · Apr 14, 2005

The knife is a Robeson. Yes, the pen is a Pelikan M1000 - the big dog of the series. Next time I photograph a knife, I'll be sure to include a gun as well.

Very nice, great pen too.

Nice knife, nice pic!

Can you give a model/source/cost for that knife?

It really grabs me!

It is a Robeson swell end jack knife, probably made in the 1940's. The company has been out of business for a long time so there isn't anyplace I could send you to buy one. Glad you like it, though. So do I.

If you like that kind of celluloid, you can find it regularly on ebay. Check out this Challenge whittler:
