Here's the other one I was thinking about. It is an old Sears (Kastor list) whittler I believe.

Dogg, I've got a little of that going on with this W H Morley.

Some one snapped the blade and I smoothed it out a little and it's still a respectable knife.
Love those clovers!

Nice looking group 'too'. Good thing about collecting Whittlers is that there are many different whittler patterns and a huge number of examples of every pattern. You will never run out of knives to add to your Whittler collection.

Floyd what is meant by "Kastor list" ?
I think most of the "Forged/USA" marked knives were made by Camillus.

Here’s a little one from Duane Cutlery Co. Germany . Don’t know much about the Company, they were in business around 1910 to sometime in the 1920s . Nice little piece, picked it up from a member here, carry it on the weekend once in a while.
Some very nice Whittlers been shown here. Nice read and show .
Take care out there
