I got this one in a bunch of knives my Mom gave me last year for Christmas. Imperial Prov. RI. I remember seeing these as a kid in bait shops and hard ware stores on the counters on cardboard displays.

Thanks for reading.
 
actually that overall pattern was popular usually with hook puller, cap lifter and serrations on the top of the blade... yours is probably just a large tooth pick.
Looks to be in really good shape too! Nice

"8 Dot" Case "Fish Knife" built for Abercrombie & Fitch. Got this when I worked at A&F back in the mid 70's:

(Unfortunately, the hook sharpener is no longer with us.)
 
Thanks for the replys, Blues I really like that case, I will be on the lookout for one of those, I have a Stag Ireland fish knife.
 
blues that looks like a rare one. if you hit enough gun shows you will find a twin that's had the blades worn out & can get the hone to replace the lost one.

Elliott, have you asked Case if they have a replacement hone??

Charlie, I wrote them sometime back (a few years ago) and at the time I was told that they didn't have any as the size had changed on more recent models.

(The funny thing is that I had it for years in a drawer and knew just where it was and then one day (before or after my move) it went missing.)

Maybe one day I'll find a replacement but the knife brings back some great memories of my days on the 8th floor of 360 Madison Avenue, NYC. :cool:
(And I still have a few other knives from my time there.)
 
I have a ka-bar fish knife that i picked up at an antique store, it's in terrible condition but it's a pattern i didn't have yet. I thought i had pics of it but i must have deleted them.
 
Another made for Abercrombie and Fitch.

Jeeezzzz Charlie...get a life ;) (jk). No man should have as many good looking knives as you (except me maybe)
 
Thanks, Elliott! Maybe you sold that A & F!!??

Campbell, you are no slouch in the knife department!!
 
Here's a knife that looks like a fish! A different definition of a Fish knife!!:D
