All About Pocket Knives

I have thus far managed to pick up four knives now with the 1st year shield on them. The ones I have are all in the dark amber stag bone handles. So far I have the congress, whittler, reverse gunstock stockman, and now the Wildcat Driller. Does anyone know how many models that Canal Street produced with the 1st year shield and /or how many of each model were produced?

SOB,

you beat me on the bidding for that one Phil ~ Lol ~ I love that Well Driller

That looks great phil and although a small thing that doesnt get mentioned much ,that box it comes in looks really vintage looking in style i like it

I'm not sure about the numbers, Phil. The only ones I have are the Congress and Whittler that came as a set w/display. I didn't even know about the Gunstock or the Wildcat.

Hey Phil, what was the very 1st year of Canal Street Cutlery's existence?

'05 I believe, Smoke.

Kelley my understanding is that they produced knives with the 1st year shield to commerate the conclusion of their first year in business. (First anniversary if you will) The paperwork that came with this knife indicates it was made in 2006. Canal Street began making knives in 2005. I also have a couple of half moon trappers with a 5th year shield which were made in 2010.

Thanks Mumbly and Phil! I love the GEC's but in my opinion, Canal Street ranks right up there with them. I only have 2, but I like them both.

I think those CS knives with the first year shields are FAKE...someone musta added them after the fact!

Box them all up and send them to me right away...I'll get to the bottom of all this......ahahahaahah
