Thank you for the info, I think it looks quite lovely :) I'd not previously heard of L.F. & C, from what I can find online, they look to be an interesting company. Hope you can find out more info, if nothing turns up here, maybe the New Britain Industrial Museum can help? :thumbsup:

Great pics Randy, and I love your cap :) :thumbsup:

Thanks Jack. And thanks for the link! I wish my pictures would show how beautiful the wood (rosewood?) is in person.
They are, in fact, a very interesting company, manufacturing all sorts of housewares and nifty products. I like to keep an eye out for any L. F. & C. cutlery products. They are noted for their black "pressed" stag scales. Here is a smaller ( 3") serpentine jack in the pressed stag that I like to carry. You can barely make out the 'universal' etch on the blade.

I have enjoyed reading a little about them, and see that a few trade catalogues are archived. I enjoyed your pics in the Old Knives thread, I hadn't previously noticed the detail of the shield. Would you say it was a Picnic Set or a Campaign Set? A really nice find :thumbsup: Thanks for the look at your Serpentine Jack too, another great piece of history, and a useful knife I am sure :thumbsup:

Thanks for the kind comments, Jack. Interesting thought about possibly being a campaign set. I am not really sure. I lean more towards a picnic set or possibly even Boyscout related, but boy would I love it if it were a campaign set! How cool would that be! I have some other LFC's I will try to get pictures of in due time. Thanks again for your interest!

My pleasure Mark, it really is a great piece I think. After seeing the shield, I also wondered if there was a Boy Scout connection. Look forward to seeing more of your LFC's :thumbsup:

Hey Rockon,
I'm really enjoying it and it cuts like a razor . Feels good in hand and just a great edc . I want another I like it so much ! Can't swing it right now though either.
No worries though they still have a few left and being a first production I have a hunch theyll be more to come . So you should be able to get your hands on one .
