The Wonderous Whittler

Healthy and hefty old whittler Lloyd!! Nice!!:thumbsup:

Cool #38, Jakedsnake Jakedsnake . Tell us more about the handles please!!:)
 
This little Cattaraugus whittler came my way just recently, along with a pearl knife seen elsewhere, from an old Buffalo company. This one has salesman's ink on it, and is very close to being a miniature!!! Shown with my 3 1/2" Barlow for comparison.
While structured like a whittler, it is obviously too small to do serious work, but for special occasions it is just right!!
Catt must have had small-handed cutlers to make these knives!!!:D

(Shown with real Italian Coral beads - much nicer than Pantone's Color of the Year IMO!! Mediterranean red coral 'Corallium rubrum'. Red coral is a stunning blood-red color. ... Since as far back as the 5th century BC people have been using pink and red corals to ward off danger, protect from the evil eye, decorate their battle spears, bring financial prosperity and cure infertility. )

It also appears that red corals have the power to make old knives look young again. :) Fantastic Catt. my friend!!!
And some recent nice examples from Gevonovich, GuestWho, WValtakis, Luger, and Jakedsnake, thanks for the pictures guys.

Here is an old Ulster Jumbo whittler.

waynorth waynorth The handles are black camel bone. It actually has more blue to it than black and are beautiful handles. It was KnivesShipFree’s SFO of the #38. Unfortunately I can’t figure out how to post a better picture of the knife as I have to edit the picture slightly to make the image file smaller so I can upload.
