Syracuse Knife Company

[soulogun]

Hello All, I picked up this knife at a flea market this weekend. I've never heard of this company before and haven't been able to find much info on them. The knife is about 3 5/16" closed. I'm really liking this pattern, does anyone currently make a pattern like this?

Hi;

Syracuse Knife Company was a brand name used by Camillus Cutlery Company in the 1920's to 1930's.

That particular pattern or style of knife (sometimes referred to as an "equal end" or a "cigar") has not been widely produced since before WWII.

The only current production knife of a similar pattern that comes to mind is a three blade version made by Case.

Wow - talk about a coincidence - I just bought the exact same knife three weeks ago at a thrift store here.

Congrats on a great find!
