Thank you Gev! To me, it's in really good shape for a 100 year old knife. Based on the Kansas City stamp, I believe it was made between 1910-1920. And judging by the wear on the bone, I believe it was carried, but based on the condition of the blades, I don't think it was used much - certainly not abused at least. Both blades walk and talk like a dream and and have a beautiful snap into half stop and open positions (sort of like the sound that a couple marbles make when clinking together - or at least that's the way I remember them sounding). :)

Spent a few hours on the trout stream today. Didn't catch a darn thing but that's ok. It's a gorgeous day to be out.

I thank you so much, Stephen! A Curtin and Clark was one of my first Traditional knives ( once I got back into it again ) and set me on the path. It is a wonderful piece and I am happy to hear that the blades walk and talk like a dream!! I love that sound too..swick...swick:D Your tang stamp looks exactly like the one on my ebony piece.

Thanks again for getting those pictures!!
