I don't have much time to look around for info on this knife, but I thought I would show it to you.

We went to a knife show this weekend (as a dealer) and it was a complete bust. I wandered around as a knife guy and I found several great slipjoints. Here is one of them. Kind of rough, but I liked it anyway.

Any idea how old it is?

Pretty old!
I would say ca 1900, but I'm just trying to be psychic.
That tapered central liner is something I've never seen. Very cool knife.
 
It really looks like W.H. Morley & Sons bone and shield. My first inclination was that's a Morley Whittler
 
If anyone wanted to do a GEC 68 White Owl Whittler SFO, I'd be all over it. That's a neat looking knife.
 
Great find, I like it!
Those oldtimer spearpoint blades with long off-center swedges, would be a fine addition to the line.

It was in a pile of knives....I bought it along with 3 others for $50. A steal, if you ask me.
 
I don't know much about it but I like it. Looks to be a George Wostenholm. I would guess it to be pre WWII possibly close to turn of the century. You might find more info on age from searching what marks were used when and compare what you have against the information. N
Not much help but like I said I like it.
