Hi folks, I posted these in another thread but thought they'de go well in the sunday thread. I got them at an antiques show yesterday. Added to my wreck collection.

The first picture is a 1901 Catalogue I've had for years, over 950 pages of hardware with 100 pages of pocket knives from Boker, to Joseph Rodgers with a few House brands.

Here is a 3 3/4 inch Edwards and sons large pen. Levines 4th says they were retailers in London 1870s however he also said the Edwards brand in Canada was a house brand for this hardware company and this knife is german judging by the steel pins.

The next is a 3 1/4 inch Alfred Fields. Pretty used but still snaps like a trap.

The next is a bit of a heart breaker, It's lost it pen blade. ;-( A wonderful stag handled Wostenholm whittler with a blade mark "civil service Canada" 4 inches closed. Anyone have a wostenholm blade??? ;-))

Thanks my friend, It's been a crazy summer, busy doing shows and trying to keep up my stock of the stuff I make. It was great show for a change. I usually only find those Mountie (RCMP) knives at nutsy prices. I'll be posting more now that summer is almost at an end.

Very best regards

Robin
 
Sounds like you had a great summer, my friend. Hope you took some pictures of the things you made, as I will be looking forward to seeing them.
