Re: Congress Is In Session!
Here's my latest pickup, love the carved pearl and the nail pulls going through the tang. It's a beefy knife at 3 3/4" closed
Re: Congress Is In Session!
Nice Robeson, Joe!
Beautiful Joseph Rodgers, Mike! It looks like the master blade, and the other one hinging on the same end, both have pulls on both sides of the blades? I also really like the carved pearl handles.

Re: Congress Is In Session!
Great looking knife Joe!
Here is another Rodgers with stag handles. I owned this knife years ago and like an idiot sold it. Glad I was able to get it back, thanks Charlie for letting me trade for it!

Re: Congress Is In Session!
Thank you, Mike.
I regret not commenting on your earlier fine pearl Rodgers. That is quite the crisp knife. Very fine.
Your latest stag swell center? congress is a beautiful knife.
I'm sure you're glad to have that one back.

Re: Congress Is In Session!
Wow - so many nice Congress knives on this page
All beauties Joe, Mike and Mike R ...
Joe - That is one lovely hefty congress and if you EDC that one you may need suspenders and a belt
Galvanic - I can't see enough of that checkered MOP Rodgers (and think this is the 3rd time I commented on it - and now your new post of that other Rodgers too ..
Mike R - all those are beauties but that Southington really caught my attention - SWEET ...

Mike R... Great grouping of Congress knives you have there, I'm partial to the NYK with that great Hammer Brand etching!
What is the handle material on the Ulster? It is very white looking.

Re: Congress Is In Session!
Thanks Lee and Joe. Lee, I've had that Southington for a long time now. It was one of the first, nice vintage knives I was able to acquire.
Ken, that's ivory on the Ulster. I'm told they didn't use a lot of ivory. Here's another bad pic.

Re: Congress Is In Session!
I had forgotten about this thread. I have amassed several Congress knives this year. Here are a few.
That last one I actually have 3 of these Bulldog Coon Stripe Congress knives. All 3 are for sale.

Thank you Joe.FRJ wrote:Three inches!!
That's a dandy!
So clean!
Here is another 3" schrade with just two blades. Pretty nice old cut. A little bit of patina on the original finish, hardly used. Minty is nice but I also really like them this way, with a little character.

Re: Congress Is In Session!
Mark, each of those Congresses is beautiful. Outstanding imo.
Re: Congress Is In Session!
Paul , nice knives, glad you brought this thread back up. I've added these over the last year or so, good vintage Congress knives are hard to find. SSK, nice additions also.
Knives pictured are a Joseph Rodgers, a KeenKutter K16 and a Schrade Walden.
