Knives from the year 1900

I just found a catalog reproduction of the Sears and Roebuck catalog from 1900 and looked at what pocket knives were being sold. I thought I would share it.

Thanks for sharing, always fascinating to see those old ads. There's a long-standy sticky here with similar images :thumbup:

My father has an old Sears Roebuck catalog, the knives, axes, guns, tools etc are some great ideas for designs for custom makers. I thought the knives looked like they were Camillus made, I may be wrong. I don't think Kastor came over until later.
