Old Keen Kutter Knives
Re: Old Keen Kutter Knives
I don't actually recall seeing a farmer's jack from Keen Kutter, however, Sellen's shows one (marked K0243) offered until 1920.

Re: Old Keen Kutter Knives
Lot's of nice knives posted since I last commented. Mike (galvanic1882) was kind enough to sell me this one. Inked on pattern number on the back is K2740, which Alvin Sellens says was manufactured between 1905 and 1916. The last photo is one of Mike's photos from the ad.

Harold and Dan what terrific knives.
Harold, I've never seen bolsters like that. That is pretty cool. I don't know that I've seen aluminum bolsters.
Maybe once in a picture some time ago.

Re: Old Keen Kutter Knives
Aluminum bolsters like that are common with pearl handled knives, but very uncommon with bone handles.
Re: Old Keen Kutter Knives
Lots of really great old Keen Kutter's shown.
Thanks

Re: Old Keen Kutter Knives
I just got these 2 plus the pruner I posted in the pruner thread. The trapper has a faint etch KEEN KK KUTTER. The pearl is etched on 2 blades. The trapper screams Schrade!!!

Those old signs have a drawing power, in a time when political correctness probably was not coined.
I got one,not the best example of a farmers jack,but it is a KK.

No date on the picture but it surely would be 1920's or 30's?

Re: Old Keen Kutter Knives
Keen Kutter made that in a post card, not a poster. Some one has been printing them for years now.Jacknifeben wrote:No date on the picture but it surely would be 1920's or 30's?
