Gunstock And Jack Catt
Gunstock And Jack Catt
Here’s a Couple that I picked up cruising the backroads . The Gunstock and the Jack have arched stamp. The21459 is a EDC at times. The Gunstock is Wore but usable ,although May retire that one. Got less than 50 bucks in the pair ,and very happy with that . Both have half stops, will bite and tight. Just tough,solid,well built old Catts.
Take care out there

Great old knives. That gunstock is especially awesome.____Dave
Re: Gunstock And Jack Catt
Those sure are good looking Catts. I bet they have a lot of slicing left in them.

Re: Gunstock And Jack Catt
Great old knives and the price was a real bargain in your favor.
J.P. you are building a fine collection of USA made folding knives. Pretty soon you will pass the 1,000 mark if you haven't already.

Re: Gunstock And Jack Catt
You’re poking on a couple of my weaknesses J.P. - Gunstocks and Catts. You’ve got some real prizes there.
Here’s a celluloid Catt that I haven’t decided yet whether to leave it alone and keep an eye on it, or go ahead and get it re-handled.

They are a great model and built well, can see why it could be a weakness.
That Catt you have is good piece,worth new handles if you ever decide. Thanks for posting it
If anyone else has any thing to show off or post ,feel free ! No matter the condition, they’re a great part of our U S Cutlery industry in its day.
Take care.

For what it's worth Ken, I would keep an eye on it and wait it out.

Re: Gunstock And Jack Catt
Thanks. That’s what I’ve been doing. I’ve had it a while. In spite of the cracks I think the “waterfall” celluloid is beautiful, I’ve not found anything in the current Kirinite and similar materials to rival its translucent “depth”. If/when I find something that rivals it’s appearance I’ll probably do a re-handle (or if it starts going off I may have to do something sooner). Meanwhile I just enjoy it despite it’s flaws - after all, it’s a gunstock and a whittler!edge213 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 9:56 pmMumbleypeg wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 4:20 pm You’re poking on a couple of my weaknesses J.P. - Gunstocks and Catts.
