I’m quite certain that jigging on the Barlow is unique. Looks like folk art to me. Sadly the blade has no snap, is short and liners are bent. Steve B.

Re: China made clones at AAPK?!?! WTF?

Here are some pics of a counterfeit Hubertus lever lock. I found it at a large antique co-op several years ago,paid 60 bucks and was delighted with myself for finding such a deal for a switchblade.

Re: A couple of cigar jack cousins

Most of us are aware that Winchester bought out Napanoch in 1919. We can compare these two that may have been made with the same equipment. Both measure out at 4 1/4”. Both Nap blades have nail nicks while the Winchester main blade has a long pull and a swedge grind. All 4 blades are tang stamped a...

Re: 2023 POS Exchange

And finally, an Imperial cattle knife in excellent condition. I have two solid-bolster Imperials (plus at least a dozen shell-handle ones), but they are very well-used. They also have ugly Bakelite handles. This is my first nice solid-bolster Imperial, and it has Rogers bone handles. The quality is...

I was lucky this past weekend to find this Catt knife in an antique store. This one is my new favorite. Blades are full with plenty of snap. Indian trail bone handles with peened pins. I couldn’t find a tang stamp chart for Catts to find the age of the arched tang stamp. Maybe one of the wisemen (Ro...
