older historical brands

Post by Umcknifeguy »

Im looking for some older historical marks from the 1800s to early 1900s era. Looing for marks such as Holley, Waterville, Ames, J. Ward, Beaver Falls, American Shear & Knife, Honk Falls, AF Bannister, Canastota, or anything along those lines. Nothing really minty just honest old knives. Thanks for any help.

Just a few more i thought of to add to the list: Baldwin cutlery, Northfield, Union Razor, Napanoch, or anything marked Nagatuck

passaic bone pen
excelsior bone pen
north field wood swellcenter jack
amer shear pearl swcenter whittler

there all clean, Pretty nice, with shields

if any of those interest you i will take some pictures









the waterville is 2-7/8" closed.
Blades have a little pitting in spots.
Theres a very hard to see center pin to backspring crack on the back side.
I have a diamond edge just like it that near mint.
The northfield is 3-3/8", and has been cleaned to near mint. Main blade might be 1/8" short?
Anyway it was cleaned right and looks real slick.
I think the handles are rosewood.

UMCKguy, you may be looking at pocket knives only, not sure. I have a 12 1/2 inch butcher knife stamped, Union Razor Company, TIDIOUTE, PA.. The knife has a lot of blade remaining, And while the wood handle has shrunk, it's solid. From what little I've read about it ( printed information on Union Razor Co. kitchen knives is scarce ), a Union Razor CO. kitchen knife is rare and few and far between. PM if this is of any interest to you. ::tu:: Bull

I’ve got a Napanoch lever pen knife, and an American Shear 4-blade congess, both with pearl scales.
Let me know if you are interested.
