Scott, the first digit would be a 6, for pearl and the arched Robeson, according to Goin"s would be made from 1896 to 1922.____DaveTripleF wrote:Can't find any info on this pattern Robeson Cutlery Co (arched Robeson) over Cutlery co.

Re: Lets show some Old and Rare ones.
Actually, pearl would be a "7".
I'm a bit confused by the pattern number. I'm not sure what the "C" actually represents. They did use a prefix "C" on their early celluloid knives. The number might well be 722084. They often omitted the zero on knives numbered from 001 to 099.
They made that knife in two, three and four blades.
Here's my three blade. It has no pattern number on it.
The pearl handles on the OP knife have faded, but they originally were this so-called "Rose Pearl".

Re: Lets show some Old and Rare ones.
Here is an old ebony handled knife that I think is pretty uncommon, if not exactly rare. Not sure exactly who the maker is, but the tang stamp BUDBRAND WINSTED, CT
Not much info available on it, except that the tang stamp indicates early 1920's.

Nice Mike, I have one I posted last week on knives made before 1960 page 76. It's a well made knife, not sure if it was a contract knife or not. Thanks for sharing yours

Re: Lets show some Old and Rare ones.
Nice knife Mike and indeed more rare ... In fact as Bill mentioned his was the first Bud Brand knife I had seen and is a make I have kept an eye out for quite awhile ... Funny how that works in knife collecting - you don't see one and than within weeks a few show up ... What is the closed length of that knife Mike??

Re: Lets show some Old and Rare ones.
For the longest time, this Camillus 3" Dog Leg Jack was a complete mystery to me. It has no pattern stamp, has a long line tang stamp and was made with the "good" black synthetic handles before Delrin®. I finally found a picture of another that had the pattern stamp 53 on the back tang. I've searched the catalogs I have access to until my eye's burned and don't find a reference to it anywhere. I've come to the conclusion it was only made for a very few years in a date range spanning very late 1950s to very early 1960s. I stumbled onto and acquired two of them and have seen pictures of one more. That's it folks. If anyone can add more to this little mystery, I would certainly appreciate it.
1st one
It was actually part of a two knife lot and I bought it for the 41 pen knife. Paid more for shipping than I did for the two knives. 2nd one Pictures only
