Old Swell center Hammer Brand Stabber jack.
A bit worn but still a nice knife I think. Mostly full blades, nice pick bone handles with propeller shield.

Here's one not often seen. A Walden Co op knife , Pre 1874 I believe. NYK employees disgruntled because not being allowed to play baseball formed a new company. Strange stamp ,as the word Walden has only the letters LDEN capitalized.

"waLDEN" . Mike L had one with the exact stamp.

This Boker USA Camper was included in a package deal. I'm pretty pleased with the bone, even with a missing shield (it really seems most common with Bokers) Unfortunately, I don't have thumbnails of steel. Even after much cleaning and oiling, I can now open the blades, but need pliers to open the tools.

I don't know a whole lot about the particulars of this pattern, but some google-fu landed on some interesting reading. I'm guessing the knife was made in the early to mid 60s. (which is pretty cool, since so was I)

Through the Decades: Collecting the Boker 9361 Scout/Utility Knife, Part 2. — Rover Haven Straps

Part 2 in a two-part article on the Boker 9361 scout/utility knife. This part picks up the story in the mid-1960’s and carries it through to the end, covering several changes of Boker ownership. The 9361 kept its basic format, but the devil is in the details of tang stamps, nail nicks, and Tree bran

Ole flat cap jigging!

All I found on the net is that Baxter of Bury St. Edmunds was a retailer, not a cutler. Yet again both Goins and Levine gave me null and void on the matter...

Thank you, sir! Yours too.

It's just that I had an illusion that having Levine and Goins automatically guarantees me a proper attribution for most old cutlery. German knives quickly proved me wrong, so I got a Carter book on the matter. But I still keep finding knives that I can't find no info about...

Found this Keen Kutter cattle knife at the OKCA show.

I always wonder who made it when I see a Keen Kutter; that one is exceptional!
