"Old Knives"

[ken erickson]

Thanks again everyone. I'm more than happy to contribute to this wonderful thread.
Here is something else from the Walden, NY area.
Walden Knife Co Eureka Jack, It is a solid 3 3/4" long a bit bigger than most you see around 3 1/2". I love the bolster and shield.

Very nice example of the cutlers art! And fully agree on the bolsters and shield.

Thanks for posting your knives:thumbup:

What is the length of the Schrade Cut co. 2203?

Paul, that Walden Eureka Jack is exceptional...I like everything about it. I try to pick up old knives anytime I can, but you truly have some cool pieces in your collection. I look forward to your posts in the future!

Here is another old Keen Kutter a barehead jack. Not sure what the handle material is, Celluloid or Ebonite. But it has a full spear with a long pull and nice swedge.

 

[ken erickson]

Nice Dogleg and Jack. Keenn Kutter really had a knack for stuffing a full spear blade in their frames.

Stainless Cutlery Jack

3 1/4" closed, ebony scales, nickel silver bolsters and bar shield, heavily tarnished brass liner and scale pins, stainless blades, springs and center pin. Manufactured from 1924 - 1940 under this brand name by Camillus to introduce their then new and yet to be accepted stainless steel to the public. All the examples I own and have seen exhibit very little to no rust and seem to take and hold an edge as well as many modern steels. These knives all seem to also be very stoutly sprung as well.... Bose - like and then some. The knife has been sharpened, used, and the main blade is heavily scratched . It was crocus polished on the front and glaze finished on the back as were most domestic knives made during this period. The secondary blade was typically glazed both front and rear as was this one

Here is a Robeson "Dogleg Jack" Main blade has
"Robeson Suredge" and Pen blade has "Robeson Cut Co"
Blades still have excellent snap, Some blade loss,
Bone has no cracks or any other problems. Still a
very nice slip joint!
