"Old Knives"

Harry, according to a chart of tang stamps I have in my notes, it looks like 1911-1916 for a possible dating.
It is, without doubt, a wonderful old knife. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Thank you so much Jeff . That suits me just fine . I like to find knives older than me and that has me beat by a few .

Finally able to acquire a Robeson Suredge Pocketeze. This particular knife checks a lot of boxes for me . Sabre Clip , Split Back Whittler Sunken Joints , Good Jigging with Worm Tracks , in pretty good condition , and price was really good .





I have no idea yet on the age of it yet . Any help with it would be appreciated .

Also picked this one up yesterday . Have no idea of maker . Was made in Sheffield . It is a 3 Bladed Split Back design . One of them is a File . etching of Sheffield Steel is still visible on the main blade . All 3 tang stamps are : WARRANTED ENGLISH STEEL . Liners are Brass . Knife is not in real good shape but for $3 , what the heck . I liked it immediately when I saw it and it had me at the Split Back Design .






If anyone can enlighten me a little about this old knife , I would appreciate it .
