Had an excellent weekend at the GEC Rendezvous and Queen Show. One of the most interesting knives I traded for is this Baldwin Washington Jack, little smaller than your average Washington jack at 3 1/4.
Nice condition with a faint blade etc, I Cut Keen/I Cut Keen. Another nice feature is flush and square joints.
Not a whole lot out there on Baldwin, pretty sure they did not make knives but were just a distributer. Any information on Baldwin or the manufacturer is most appreciated.

Neat knife! First one I've seen. Looks very classy and well made.

I have a moose pattern marked Baldwin New Orleans that was definitely a 1950's Schrade contract knife. Typical Schrade peachseed bone.
