"Old Knives"

[Campbellclanman]

Nice to see you posting Dave my friend, although I do see you "Liking or Loving" a lot of posts.

Ever since I talked to you my eyes search for that Gowanda, to me that's a Tang stamp that needs to be sent to Knowtracks!

Charlie that's a beautiful conditioned Centenarian from Morley and Sons there Sir!

Found a 1910 to 1930 Passaic Knife Co Newark New Jersey 3 3/8" bare end jack. Not a whole lot known on them. The bone jigging is almost a basketweave or herringbone jigging, I have heard it called New Jersey style. Knife is pretty much relic condition but still has a decent old look to it.

Wow! Note how the long pull is tilted along the swedge. Very unusual!

Schatt and Morgan moved to Titusville in 1903 and quit manufacturing by 1931. They used the same tang stamps in Pennsylvania the whole 28 years.
That's as close as I can narrow it down to.

W.H. Morley made knives in Germany from 1913 to 1927. This Sausage tester has French Ivory embossed handles!! (The Schrade with it is newer - 1970s! With Delrin handles)!View attachment 2428405View attachment 2428406View attachment 2428407

Nice! I'm a fan of W. H. Morley .

While your knives are outstanding Sir. I really love the elk ivories on the bead string. Mine all just sit in a jar. Maybe someday I should make my bride an elk tooth shirt like the Indian maidens wore.

I'm certain she would love it! Mostly because you made it just for her but also buckskin is the absolute most comfortable clothes I've ever put on. Don't let those beauties sit in a jar!!!!

It has been my experience that the Prunner and the Toothpick are the easiest patterns to find in really nice shape when looking at an old pocketknife.
I understand it with the Prunner, just don't need it's blade shape that often. Anyway.... there's a Toothpick....

[Campbellclanman]

Loving this Dave, That Bone Jigging work on that Toothpick is something else!
