Does any one out there have any simmons hardware or keen kutter knives?

Pity someone defaced the blade by writing on it. (JOKING!!) It is a beauty and nice to see so well preserved. Maybe it survived all of these years in a salesman's knife roll.

Ha Ha, good one!, that probably would have been my first reaction a few years ago. Thanks for the comments, Shawn and supratentorial.

Thanks KAW for the kind comment. Not 100% sure it was made by Walden, but probably (in my mind anyway) 99%% sure. I do really like the German made Hornet!, not quite as nice as Charlie's, though.
Thanks
Dan
 
Another new to me Keen Kutter. A K4063, Sellens says was in the catalogs from 1924 through 1929, so likely Winchester made? The crack at the front of the shield was not there when I got it. Dropped it on the garage floor:eek::(:mad:.

That's a sweet pen knife, Dan!! Hardly seen any wear at all. Nice liners:thumbsup:
Sorry about the dive it took! Been there, done that!!:rolleyes: I cannot see the crack!!

Here's a junior (3 3/8") Scout. Looks like Junior practiced a bit of sharpening,:rolleyes: but not too much!
E.C.Simmons KeenKutter Made in USA on three blades. Most of the etch is there, and it has excellent snap all around.

Thanks Charlie. That is a nice scout! I believe that having the Made in USA stamp on three blades (as opposed to the usual St. Louis Mo.) is fairly rare.
Also got this one not too long ago, a 73266 1/4. Knife has been cleaned and buffed. Both blades have seen a lot of use and the punch is very short. I bought it for the pattern.

Great pattern, Dan.:thumbsup: That "whittler" construction is always fascinating to behold!
Nice to have until a better one comes along -
Known collector behaviour!!:D

"Everlasting Sharp" means…. never having a dull moment.:cool:
 
Thanks Charlie and KAW. I also very much like the whittler construction.

Recently picked up 3 new to me Keen Kutters. Will put them in three posts as when I try to post multiple pics I seem to get them duplicated and mixed up quite a bit. All three are pretty much unused with the factory edge. All three have some spiders and staining.
First is a small (2 5/8") pearl handled pen knife, K27121.

You're a lucky Canuck!
