Gardening time with a great knife. Hey Buzzbait, here is another knife that looks like it was on a #14 frame, it was made by Ulster but holding it next to a Camillus it looks identical even the bone covers.View attachment 2958272View attachment 2958273

Thread 'Can you tell "Rogers Bone"?'

Sep 1, 2014

Hi -

Did a forum search and found some good info, and a bunch of great pics too, but didn't really find the direct answer I was looking for.

When looking at an old traditional, is there a way to tell if it's scaled in 'Rogers bone"?

Just asking as this material seems to be in demand on the older knives and I'm just trying to educate myself a little more.

I did read some history behind the company and the fact they supplied much of the knife industry with materials. Quite an interesting read.

Thanks! Joe

Let me confess I didn't go all the way back through all the listings that came up when I entered Rogers Bone in the search engine here on AAPK, but as far as I searched I didn't find a thread devoted totally to Rogers Bone handled knives. I thin..

Imagine some old Rogers Bone Co. boys ressurecting the business.

No knife today because I’m flying to Ohio on my company’s dime for a gas compressor training course. But yesterday I carried my new BF ‘24. It’s already picked up some patina from the two apples I’ve eaten with it.

Great knife.

It was cool to grow up in the 50's , 60's , & 70's muscle cars . 6 cylinders with split manifolds , V 8'S with duals , 55 Chevy V8 , 3 Dueces , Dual 4 Barrels , Pontiac GTO , Corvettes , and T-Birds , Dodge and Plymouth Hemis , the first of the Hot Compacts with V 8's . Nascar became Big .

This knife began its life as a Camillus electrician’s knife. When I got it in a pile of old knives it looked like it had been through hell. Apparently it was in an electrical fire and the delrin handles were badly burned and the blades were scarred beyond recognition. I meticulously took it apart and cleaned up as best I could and ground the screwdriver blade into a whittling blade, and partially serrated the spear blade. I then put it together with tiger wood handles and did some file work on the springs. I love it because it is battle scarred yet beautiful.

Nice work!

The 29 found its way into my pocket again. Love the stockyard whittler!
