Robert Klass
Case 7 dot.




All four-blade Congress but with varying sizes and condition. The Case is my favorite; it looks like plastic, but it's bone with strong walk and talk. It definitely fills up your pocket! Share the Congress Love! T-A

if that was a single blade I think made have grabbed it. The warncliffe as the single blade didnt look too good to me in terms of profile. Think the other side they had to cut a nail nick right Ron?

They only had the nail nick relief cut on the two blade model Jack. The single blade was full on both sides.

GEC/Northfield UN-X-LD 610211 Green Briar bone covers Half Congress" "Number 14 of 35", (Tho I'm not sure they made 35 serialized with the Green Briar covers.)
It get carried once in a while. I'll admit it feels better in hand than the Imperial 4 blade Congress I had, but still not "right".View attachment 1407873

This thread made me curious about how many I actually have and I may have a problem with this pattern.

Family photo since I had them all together.



These are from Wostenholm IXL. One Bex and one French ivory. These are very well made knives.


I singled this next one out because I don't know who made it. It's an HSB and it's the pinnacle of quality...


Best in class overall goes to Boker. Bottom right three are Solingen, bottom left is one of the newer "assembled in Germany" knives and the rest are Boker USA.



Next is the GEC f&f carver, the clerk and the whip. Redbone Robeson, Queen, two Hammer brand, Buck creek, Case, Ulster, Sabre and Harrington.



And for some comic relief, because they can't all be winners... An "old america" in orange spray paint bone that is neither old or from America.
