Sometimes beneficial to have it known you like knives?

I wouldn't store the blond one around anything you don't want rusted, because it looks like deteriorating celluloid.

Re-scale it?

The Maysville knives were not a part of the old Belknap Hardware Company, which contracted the John Primble knives. The following is from the owner of the name. :

Since Blue Grass Cutlery has acquired John Primble knives from the bankruptcy court in 1985, we have produced John Primble knives under:

John Primble, Louisville, Ky,
John Primble knives, Maysville, Ky.,
and John Primble knives, Manchester, Ohio.

We are presently introducing a line of John Primble knives, known as the American Legend Series. Some of this series will be made here in Manchester, Ohio, and also as John Primble over the years before we have acquired it, John Primbles were made overseas for a while and Germany was one of the countries of which made some of the John Primbles. Some of the legend series will be made in the Orient, however, we made all new tooling and they are of the highest quality at a price that anyone can afford.

However, part of that series will be made here in Manchester, Ohio.

As most people do shop for price, an awful lot of the American companies are really being hit hard with the pressure of the low cost of wages in the Orient. We at the present time are expanding our ability and resources to make the knives here in the USA, however, as with anything that this is done, the price of the end product will be higher, however, once you see it , the product will justify the difference.

Hope this information is of some value to you.

Thanks for your interest in John Primble knives and Blue Grass Cutlery.
