"Old Knives"

[waynorth]

Here are 2 pretty rare Newark NJ marked knives. Cattle is Sterling Cutlery Co, first knife with this mark I’ve ever seen. The big Navy folder is a J. T. Mount Newark NJ.

Interesting tangs, Mike!! I've never seen either one!!

I've had the Mount knife for years. I have a pearl 4 blade that has a cool etch that is marked JT Mount and have seen others. Never the Sterling though

I gotta say, other than the old knife boxes thread, this is one of my favorite threads. I love seeing the variety of old knives from decades (or even a century) ago. Always something new to look at.

Mike, galvanic1882 you have been posting some great stuff lately! Love the Cattaraugus sales book and the beautiful knives. Those two pearl 4 blades and the Utica with the abalone handles are really something.
In the theme of your boy's knives here is a Challenge, bang on 3", that I have had for awhile.

Thanks Dan, great knife! Love boys knives with wood handles. Can just see a young lad having that in his pocket or whittling

J T Mount closed his shop in 1905 according to Goins. Early knives,they are. Here's a farmers jack by Mount with the ELectric nickname. This is early jigging.
