Some of those early wharncliffe whittlers are making my mouth water ... very cool historical pics - thx for posting.

What I find interesting is many of these historic patterns are long gone, never see them from the big manufacturers like Case ... but I recognize several of the old patterns from what GEC and Queen /S&M currently make - just wish the prices were closer to the ones listed in the catalogs ::dang::

Rodger, that slot knife does look like an Ulster. Thanks for sharing it and pointing out the connection.

I just purchased 9 Landers, Frary and Clark catalogs which contain not only folding knives but all of the durable goods that LF&C made. I hope over time to scan the folding knife pages and make them available here for posterity. The catalogs include:

(1) Green Cover, 1914, Catalog #48
(2) Green Cover, 1919, Catalog #61, January 1, 1919
(3) Blue Cover, 1922, Catalog #261
(4) Tan Cover, 1922, Catalog #262, August 9, 1922
(5) Brown Cover, 1926, Catalog #12
(6) Red Cover, 1926, Sectional #1
(7) Ivory Cover, 1928, Cutlery Catalog #1, July 15, 1928
(8) Ivory Cover, 1928, Supplement #1
(9) Olive Cover, 1931, Catalog #31

There appears to be no missing pages or water damage and some have the typewritten cover letters to the jobber, I'm very pleased with this find.
