This is a lot of five vintage USA made autos.
#1 and #2 each need repairs as noted. #3 is used but solid no issues. #4 & #5 are for parts/restoration.
Knife #1 – HAMMER BRAND - made by Imperial Knife Co. – 3-1/2” closed single blade. “crimped bolster” construction.
The blade is full with patina. Blade snaps open and locks up properly but has some side play.
Nice brown/cream mottled handles.
Knife #2 - HAMMER BRAND - made by Imperial Knife Co. – 3-1/2” closed single blade. “crimped bolster” construction.
The blade is full with patina. Blade snaps open and locks up properly but has a lot of side play.
Nice green/cream mottled handles. The back handle is flattened some.
Knife #3 – SNAPPY COLONIAL – made by Colonial Knife Co.
The blade is full with patina. Blade snaps open and locks up properly and has the usual tiny bit of wobble.
Brown celluloid handle covers, no cracks.
Knife #4 – PRESTO G SCHRADE BPORT CT. 3-3/8” closed two-blade.
Celluloid handles are disintegrating.
The knife appears to function properly, the inner spring is intact. Blades are each tight.
Blades are full with patina.
Needs new handles and a good cleaning.
Knife #5 – this knife has both blades in place, but the main blade is stuck inside, and I can’t open it.
Definitely a Schrade based on the peachseed bone. One handle is intact with no cracks or damage.
The other handle is damaged.
Small blade shows minor wear. Large blade looks to be near full but again I can’t open it.
$275 shipped for the lot of five knives.

Re: Lot of Five Antique USA Made Automatic Knives
If you don’t sell them all I’d like the smallest knife in the middle.
