"Old Knives"

That's an amazing find, Lee!
It looks like Empire's work for sure. A Premier Cattle knife is a rare bird indeed!

Thanks Charlie :thumbup:... and thanks for posting lots of the good info in the past regarding the connection between Shapleigh and Empire which helped me to determine the maker of this knife!!

Nice knife, Mike!
There's not much information about the premier cattle that I've seen. LongBlade's knife could be a premier cattle since it is serpentine and has a spear main blade. Here's an excerpt from LGIV...

Thanks Jake for the info

This very nice looking Barlow Harry, you are very lucky to find it. I love the rounded bolsters and the bone is real nice. I am watching for one of these and a Russel Barlow, but these are hard to get by in good condition.

A post was moved to Rough Rider & Related Slipjoints. The knives weren't old enough for this thread.
A second post was moved to the Boker sub forum.
