What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Stich2442, I'm glad your PhotoBucket issues seem to have resolved. Your recent pictures (including yesterday's) have been phenomenal. :thumbup:

Turn down your radio, tell the kids to hush, listen carefully, and you may just be able to hear Pertinux drooling! :D ;)

Ahem. I drool not, let alone audibly.

However, I have been known to shimmy from time to time.

Has anyone ever heard of this maker before? I cannot find any information of the maker. Maybe I need a few reference books.

Its not Great Eastern Cutlery Co...but Eastern Cutlery Co.

Oooh Gev, I like that. Long bolstered congress with a manicuring blade? You have great taste :)

Thank you, my friend. It is beautifully made and I have never seen this maker before. Hopefully someone can assist me with more info. I searched online to no avail.

I've been overdue to take a new picture of my #56. It is easily the nicest production knife I own and I have yet to find a flaw with it at all.
 
Here is what I am packing today, a little Bailey pocket EDC in natural micarta. The owl belongs to my wife, who loves owls and quilting.

 
I got a little package from Italy today...:D
Courtesy of our own Fausto and his incredible giveaway. I am floored! More details and pics to come.

 
Genonovich,

Thanks for the pics! That is an amazing old Congress. I love it!

Your very welcome, Todd Thanks for the compliment!

Even with a broken scale and one blade, its a jewel to me.

Just how I like em...evoking the past and summoning up the spirit of the makers and the owners of old.
And now...resurrected from the old sense of hurt, neglect and shame .... it seems to be shining with a new sense of pride that is almost arrogance.
