Mike, The NYKCo. is outstanding. I love the old bone when it is crisp, you can
feel the sharpness, it is like it was made yesterday.

Some real lookers in this thread. This Ulster is my only old dogleg, but I do have a couple nice new ones.

That is an Awesome Ulster!

Here's two that are fairly new to me.

The bone is a Wards.

The green celluloid is an Imperial.

I sure wish I had a dozen of these of these…… or even one!

It is from an 1884 Hibbard, Spencer & Bartlett catalog I got recently.
The red lettering on the pic is on the catalog page.
Hibbard, Spencer & Bartlett is written vertically up each page in fancy script.
Wouldn’t you like to have one of these?

I've got to TOTALLY agree with you on that Dale!

I fantasize about a time machine to go back and get some GREAT knives!

It was $7.50 for a DOZEN of them!

That is .62 cents each

PigSticker · Post by **PigSticker** » Thu May 19, 2011 3:55 pm

Ahh i missed that--gotta quit just lookin at the pictures and do more reading

orvet · Post by **orvet** » Thu May 19, 2011 5:03 pm

You have to keep in mind that the catalog is for dealers, so 62¢ would be the wholesale price. Retail price was probably $1.00 to $1.25.
Even paying retail I would like to buy a gross (12 dozen) of those!

It would be nice to have a time machine.

Great knives posted to date. Just fooling around with a new camera, so thought I revive this old thread and add a few.
Three Hibbard, Spenser and Bartletts and a Keen Kutter.

Picked up this knife today. Nicest A.W. Wadsworth XLNT I've had.

daddynewton · Post by **daddynewton** » Fri Jan 16, 2015 12:48 am

That is a nice knife Mr. Sexton. I hadn't ever looked at this thread. I started from the beginning and they are all nice knives. thanks

wlf · Post by **wlf** » Fri Jan 16, 2015 2:10 am

That's definitely a nice one Micheal(if I remember right). Nice to see you're posting.

I call that handle material pressed stag. I would like to hear other opinions.I believe it is die cast material??

sextonknifeworks · Post by **sextonknifeworks** » Fri Jan 16, 2015 2:50 am

The handle is actually bone. I call it early pick bone, some people call it snakeskin bone.

Beautiful Wadsworth, must have taken someone quite some time to complete that intricate jigging pattern.
