Uncle Henry Fixed Blade Mfg. Dates

[black mamba]

I just acquired a pair of Uncle Henry fixed blades, a 172UH and a 153UH with sheaths but no boxes. The sheaths are literally identical, both with the sharpening stone pocket on the front, but no markings or stamps anywhere. One sheath came with a black fine stone, and the other came with a green medium grit stone. They both have the SUPER SHARP etched on their carbon steel blades, although it is very faint on the 153. Only the 153 has the Uncle Henry script on the guard. Any help on when these were made would be greatly appreciated!

Did you ever come across some info on the 153uh Uncle Henry

I believe it was made in the 1980s.

Jeff, your 172 Wildcat was listed in catalogs 1990-93.

It was Cal, but I think he was only interested in the 153 Golden Spike, which is a little earlier.
