Re: Old Timber Scribes!
Thank you Sir, was very happy to have found it. Did some research and all could find was the NYK Co. Start and end dates of 1856 to 1931 . Not sure how to get any more specific dates. What’s the tell on this vs. the tang stamp ones ? Is it simply where the stamp is. Any help would be great.Miller Bro's wrote: ↑Mon Mar 08, 2021 12:13 amNice, looks like an earlier version than the tang stamped onesRipster wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 8:30 pm Picked up this Timber/ Barrel Scribe today
Was a bit dirty ,cleaned it up a little and oiled handles and joint. Been used ,but solid yet. This may go with our lumber markers section in our display at Carson park . Tang is NEW YORK over KNIFE Co over WALDEN .
Take Care

Re: Old Timber Scribes!
I believe so, just from my own experience I see many more with the tang stamped versus being stamped out on the blade. I believe they started stamping them out on the blade like the English made ones were then later production switched to just stamping the tang

Re: Old Timber Scribes!
Picked up this 4 line Camillus this week,nice tight piece with full half stop. This one has nice full Scribe,,steel liners and bolster.
Was hoping to find one in bone,stag, but this’ll do for now and goes well with my Collection of Camillus stuff.
Anybody got anymore Scribes to show off that would be great . Been interested in them as of lately
Take care out there

Re: Old Timber Scribes!
Added to the sheepsfoot jack collection with a Thomas Turner & Co stag Encore stamped. Has a timber scribe secondary, you don't find these 2 blades all that often.
Re: Old Timber Scribes!
Wow!!! Awesome!!!
Re: Old Timber Scribes!
Oh my goodness! That’s a dandy right there.

Man that is super cool, and from someone who loves a sheepsfoot/lambsfoot they are something to behold. Good on you.

That really is a unique and beautiful knife. Love that stag!

Re: Old Timber Scribes!
Thank you all for the nice comments, was pretty happy to land this one, I knew 2 blades were made but they don't come up very often.
