Robeson slick black cattle knife.
3 5/8 inches closed. Equal-end frame. Clip and sheepfoot blades arise from one end of the knife, and a pen blade from the other end. All blades have crescent pulls and none have half stops. Clip blade is tang-stamped ROBESON over ShurEdge (in a cursive font) over U.S.A. on the mark side, and 132433 on the pile side. The sheepfoot and pen blades are tang-stamped ROBESON (in an arch) over U.S.A. over CUTLERY. All blades have good snap both opening and closing, are well centered in their wells and have zero lateral play. There are faint signs of minimal sharpening but no perceivable blade loss. All steel surfaces have a mottled grey silky smooth patina with a few areas of ‘spider webbing’ and/or ‘pepper spots.’ Rounded threaded bolsters and blank pinned gimp shield are nickel silver. Pins and liners are brass. Covers are slick black celluloid, tight to all contact points, with no perceivable warpage, shrinkage or other signs of degradation. Faint scratch marks throughout. This is a high-condition knife with very minimal signs of use. $100 PPFF with no notes in the note field, shipped to any CONUS address. Post "take," then to Direct Message for the transaction, etc.
