"Old Knives"

[Augie]

Thank you all for the nice comments, much appreciated. I took a couple pictures showing it with the Schrade Cut Co I mentioned, frame and shield size is exact.

Great eye as usual John, did you have a Schradey gut feeling upon spotting the EO?
Perfectly matched these two, from their shields to those Gawgeous scales, those nicks and swedges! I also like the steel structural pins on the labelled Schrade.... such a pleasure to have both of them together!!
Thank you for the comparison pics

Picked up this Bridge Cutlery easy open jack, has great pick bone, snaps like a gator. I have a Schrade Cut Co jack with the same bone and shield so maybe made by Schrade Cut, first Bridge tang stamp in the collection.

Augie nice set of knives. Love the pick bone. Looks like they must have come out of the Schrade factory around the same time.

Nice one pistonsandgears
Such nicely rounded coco handles, again brass/steel pinned, and one of my favourite stamps ever!

Nice one P&G, the small pruners are hard to find, I've seen them called ladies pruners.

Elegant 3 9/16" Teardop Jack from Empire, with their famous Banner shield!! ~ca. WWI.
Hardly used, nice dark Ebony and barely used. Whole Etch remains!! Amazing F&F with snap at around 7 1/2 at both blades!! Tang "double-stamped"!!
