The last knife; etched "OUR WINNER", crosses the line at Pen or Jack, at 3"!! Nice knife either way!!!
All are from the turn of the century, or pre-war!!!

Fabulous knives Charlie 😎👍
 
If Pearl handles catch your eye as a collector, you will wind up with some from Sheffield!!Sheffield Four pearls 1.jpg
The top one is marked Ibberson, and it has SS-57 marked in the liner!! Stan Shaw made it back then!!!
Next is an I*XL from Wostenholm!! Third is marked Hadfield's, and last is John Watts!!!

Second, a Schrade Cut Co, with a handle dedication etch!!
Third a Robeson, resembling a gunstock!!

Stunning, sir! My english is lacking to express how adorable I find those little things! Say, that exact shield on the Robeson, was it a generic shield of the time, or a distinctive one of that exact maker? I see a small MOP pen on local flea market with same shield, but seemingly no tang stamps, so I am hesitant...

NYK, and Schrade used similar shields???? Not distinctive to that maker!!
 
Recently rediscovered. Been 'lost' for quite a while.

While excavating paper debris on my desk (shockingly deep and messy!), I found this advertising Pen from Schrade Cut Co, pre-WWII !! Been there for months (I'm too old to be embarrassed!! :rolleyes: )Schrade Ad 1.jpgSchrade Ad 2.jpg
Clearly Embossed metal handles!! A simple knife where the handles and liners are the same pieces of non-magnetic metal, probably nickel silver!!
The result is a light, slim but sturdy, pen knife!!! Neat little knife!!!!

I share your pain brother! 😁 Cool Pen 😎👍
 
Picked up these really nice pen knives up from a friend at Badger knife show. Stamped Case Tested. But I’ve heard that they have maybe been made by Utica or Camillus. Anybody help me with identifying who made these? Either way they are really nice. Not a huge fan of the advertising on them but I got something brewing for these.

I’m not saying it’s not true, but you just know the guy who said that had a super messy desk. 😉😁

You mean you’re not selling off most of your other knives and focusing your collection exclusively on industrial midwest advertising knives? 😉

Nice pearlies Charlie :) I think that stainless fruit knives are historically interesting :cool: Here's a few by Joseph Rodgers, Croisdale, and William Rodgers, respectively :thumbsup:
