One Catt In The Pile

Picked up a 'lot' of knives at an online estate sale. Only had one Catt (22762) in the bunch. I don't know anything about Catts, so in my ignorance, I don't believe this is anything special. Just another Catt to share with those 'in the know'.

Cattaraugus knives are always special.
A great early history and fine knives.
You've got a good packer there.

Nice! Catts can be expensive, even in pretty rough shape. That one is definitely in better shape than my own, a Jack.

From the turn of the 20th century until WWII there was no factory-made knife better than a Cattaraugus. When I started collecting they were highly sought after by collectors. They still are. Like Joe says, Cattaraugus knives are always special, and the company history is too.
Nice find!

Thank you all for your insight and comments. It appears I do have a pretty nice knife.
