Hey Mike.
Here is all the info: Antonini 22/2L electrician's knife, blade is hardened C67 HRC 54-56, spike is C50, bolsters are P02 iron, inner case is FE590 iron.
You do not have the optional shackle, and your knife is old enough that it may have some wood other than the Kotibe slabs that are on the current ones. So that just leaves the pivot pin material a mystery.

I like that one you have. I am trying to track down the model 23/3L, blade, screwdriver, spike model. @Just Tom. and someone else posted pics of theirs recently. Tough, rough, and cheap, purposebuilt work knives like that really appeal to me.

The depth of knowledge around here keeps surprising me.

Odd things sometimes pop into my brain.
For some reason, I’m remembering finding that big chocolate bunny in my Easter basket and discovering it was hollow...

A rapturous trio of vintage dark-jigged multiblades, JJ!!

Thank you very much Gary!!!

Fantastic !! Made me get out a Schrade

Thank you Gev; Schrade really had a great history!!!

My deerless deer season is over, so I'm totin' this one just for the memories of days outdoors enjoying the the scenery.

That has to be the most intricate folding hunter I've yet seen; quite magnificent Stuart!

Both Schrades are sharp, but I can’t tear my eyes of the color and detailing of your Barlow.

Thank you kindly good Sir!!!

Marvelous shot of your HHB Harvey; you have great taste in both cutlery and bakeries!

That whittler is unique, to me at least.

I think that this particular whittler iteration was only made by Camillus?

Gorgeous pair and picture thereof, JJ.

Thank you very kindly Stuart!!!

Great multi-task lineup today Gary; I'm a sucker for a great old scout but your Opinel Mod is just cool!

I happened to run across info on that knife on the manufacturers website. I was researching another model. I will only take credit for recognising the knife from Mike's post. Cool knife. I was just parroting what I read in the 'specs'.
I have admit though, that I very was happy to pass on the info, and be the one to identify the knife.

Thought I'd go with this Puma stag hunter I grabbed in the early 80s.

We have been having a great discussion about old Case Jigged Red Bone on the thread entitled, “Case red bone pictures.” I wonder why this color is so hard to produce currently. Charlie C alluded to a possibility that I have read about before: those old dyes were toxic! Anyone know anything about that?

LT, Fabulous foursome of redbones! OH

VERY nice Harvey

Thanks for the kind words, Jack. My "checkering project" would be even more interesting if I actually went beyond the planning stage.
HHB against the blue sky is very cheerful, and that Primble is primo!

Thank you Gary, that sounds like a lot of my projects

Yes I reuse parchment paper. And my 29.

Fab pics Dave

Spent the afternoon in friends' flat, just the other side of the street (and 6 floors higher).

Harry

Those two go together beautifully Harry

Thanks Jack!!! Stunning pair for you today; one from you and one with your name on it (kinda)!

Going with a couple of Schrades for Saturday.

Thanks JJ Fantastic pair of Schrades there

Cold, rainy day, glad I signed up for the Saltwater Sportsman Magazine fishing school in New Bern for today. Going to carry this "fishing knife" with me (well, it's been fishing!) Hopefully I will learn some great tips and tricks today. OH

Cool pic, hope you're having a great time

Beautiful Esky Zulu @Frailer ! That is the only pattern that I would like to add to my collection. However, I have not been able to even get close to getting one.

Old Hunter , sounds like you will have a great day! I really enjoy your hunting and fishing posts.

Thanks @Gary W. Graley , This scrimshaw work was done by Linda Layden. She is very talented, and I thought the shape of the 78 would be a great platform for her art.

That's some really nice work

Thanks, Jack. I assume you're speaking of my knives; if you were describing me, I think a visit to the optometrist is in order for you!
...

Thanks, Jack.
A superb pairing for you, and you sure got some superior photos of your HHB on that sun-bathed greenish branch!

LOL! I do need to get some new specs Thanks for the kind words pal

Great line-up Gary, I had my Farmer with me yesterday

Thought I'd go with this Puma stag hunter I grabbed in the early 80s.

Good grab JJ

I had some adventures yesterday, so it's taken me a while to catch up, but I hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend. I've had these two (Hartshead Barlow and Winchester Bull-Head) with me (plus my Vic Farmer yesterday)

You did. I didn't see it (still waiting on the percolator and my first cup of coffee) that's my bad. Thank you!
