Some really beautifully aged pieces in classic patterns and covers! Not an expert in pricing these older knives, so if I am off base please make an offer.

Each of these available individually. For each additional knife bought together, I will reduce the total cost by $10.


Robeson Cutlery Co - Rochester USA - Barlow - Saw Cut Bone
Minimal blade play, fantastic walk and talk, half stop, and minimal blade wear make this one really stand out. Pull is above average, but doable with my thumbnail. The bone covers are out of this world.
SOLD $100 90PayPal (f&f preferred but not required)
Price include USPS insured shipping to the continental US.

Hibbard Spencer Barlett & Co O.V.B - Mother of Pearl
"Our Very Best" indeed on this elegant pen knife. Easy pull and only minor blade play, but no half stop or walk and talk on the main blade. Better snap on the little second blade. You may be able to oil it out and smooth it up further. This is a quite small knife with both blades sharing a spring, brass liners, and elegant MOP covers.
SOLD $45 40 PayPal (f&f preferred but not required)
Price include USPS insured shipping to the continental US.

New York Knife Co. Walden - Hammer Brand - Ebony
I'm a real sucker for this old ebony. NYKC is probably my favorite of the vintage brands. This knife could quite realistically be 100 years old. Half stop and alligator snap on the blades. Moderate blade play is present, and the edge has suffered on the main at the hands of a past owner. I had planned on applying a new edge, but never got around to it. Blade shape remains mostly intact. Steel liners and pins all around.
$65 55 PayPal (f&f preferred but not required)
Price include USPS insured shipping to the continental US.

Camillus New York USA - Jigged Bone
Anyone for a cigar? This larger jack has a big clip point main blade that is largely intact. No half stop, but great snap and a reasonable pull. Pen blade pull is heavier. No blade play. Biggest issue is the chip on the pen blade on this one, but the bone character is so great, and the main blade is in such good shape that this had been a keeper for me. Lined nickel bolsters add a nice touch.
RELISTED $75 65 PayPal (f&f preferred but not required)

Sta Sharp S.R & Co - Stag
I believe this one was made by Camillus in the Sta Sharp brand some time in the 1930s. I also found the below scan of a catalog from that time that appears to show the knife. Beautiful coined brass liners and a rich deep patina on the backsprings. Half stop and walk and talk are here. MINIMAL blade play. Most of the wear is on the pen blade which is a touch easier to open. This 90+ year old stag is super rich and buttery here.
