Just toted Manson's knife from the mailbox
Well, MANSON SHEFFIELD
I have a copy of Tweedale's Directory of Sheffield Cutlery Manufacturers 1740-2013: Revised and Expanded 2nd Edition on the way to me but until then, I have scant information on MANSON SHEFFIELD.
Everything I can find indicates MANSON short lived production from late 1840's to early/mid 1860's.
Older shield "repair" and crude cutting edge are going to be fun restorations in spare time. Sheath is in nice condition considering possible 150+yr age and apparent knife usage.

I have this little guy tagging along today. I don’t find myself needing much more for daily tasks. I always liked how much blade this little frame packs in there!

Out for the evening and some min.oil...
Back to the dam it goes

a great one to all

Cause sometimes you need a good Barlow. And then other times you need a knife that glistens with the likeness of a gorgeous horse.



Actually, I’m selling a bunch of knives for my father-in-law and this chestnut bone gem makes me laugh. I may sell it last just so I can hold on to it a bit longer.

Have a great evening!

Pretty happy with this one

 

[JJ Cahill]

Those are nice
What era are they from?

Thanks Mike!!! The small jack was made by Remington in the mid 1930s and the big jack was made by Camillus using the Remington tang stamp in the late 1940s/early 50s.

MANSON's Knife
Removed the shield, cleaned the handle. Shield isn't permanently reattached yet.
Shield definitely isn't centered. Those fellas sure need glasses 150yrs ago. Shoot
Shield isn't recessed into handle either. Pinned to the top of a semi-flat area in the stag.
... cleaned up anyway. Blade tip was slightly bent and straightened that ... pretty much.

I am continuing to wrestle with my new camera and its software - hence my limited posts as of late. Regardless, I am carrying these two today - one old and one new. The bone on both is a pleasure in hand.

We love this time of the year for walking. The tree canopy is still open and the sun shines down on the white trillium flowers ( the symbol for Ontario) in full bloom. Once the tops get green and full the flowers are mostly gone and the bugs and mosquitoes come in.

A red trillium, not as common ( I found out that the red ones pollinate by attracting flies by emitting what's described as a rotten meat or wet dog odor )

Carried these 2 yesterday and this morning : Both 3 Bladed Whittlers /// Stag is Cripple Creek and the GEC 38 English Whittler or Wharncliffe Whittler




And after lunch today I had to carry some work knives to get something done .
