Re: Wharncliffe Knives
I've collected a few I-XL knives to date but the Wharncliffe in the black dress is catching my eye.

Re: Wharncliffe Knives
Enjoy it while you can...that one is scheduled to get the orvet magic mod treatment in a few months. I'm currently in the process of sourcing just the right material for the makeover.

Re: Wharncliffe Knives
In the style of the Hawbaker Muskrat but S&M called it a "Straight Moose". From the Keystone Series XX with Bourbon Reversed Worm Groove Bone Jig Bone handles, I like it.

Great color on that bone. Sweet, and classic.

Re: Wharncliffe Knives
Hawbaker Muskrat -- Sheepcliffe blade on one end, Muskrat clip blade on the other.
Moose -- Large knife with a big clip blade at one end and either a long spear or a long spey blade at the other end.
Maybe they should have called it a Hawbaker Moose.

Re: Wharncliffe Knives
Check out this S&M Acorn Series...if two can be considered a "series". This interior mammoth ivory wharncliffe trapper is from the Schatt & Morgan Custom Shop and is 1 of only 2 ever made. Supposedly, the acorn shield is quite rare on an S&M knife.gsmith7158 wrote:I gotta say that keystone series is putting out some sweet knives.

Re: Wharncliffe Knives
Q: That is a very classy looking knife you have there. In fact I'd call it elegant. Congrats!
Re: Wharncliffe Knives
Thank you, Quick Steel.
Here's one that made me break my rule of never purchasing a knife that I've previously owned and sold. In my defense, however, the one I owned previously was used, whereas this Beretta Electra with carbon fiber handle scales on anodized blue liners is brand spankin' new...so, that's not really the same, right? And besides, I regretted selling my first one almost as soon as I mailed it off. Finding this one to take it's place was nothing short of providential; so, in good conscience, I really couldn't refuse, now could I? As the saying goes, "Rules are made to be broken."

Hot dang ~Q~. I just bought one of those. Not as nice as yours and used but I doubt I paid as much either. It should be here on Tuesday.QTCut5 wrote:Thank you, Quick Steel.

Right On, jerryd...glad you won it. And, I think once you clean it up a bit you will agree you got a steal of a deal on a high quality piece of fine cutlery. Good show, my good man!

Re: Wharncliffe Knives
This is an unusual knife. It looks to be a Gunstock Wharncliffe Whittler with Ivory handles. 2 5/8" closed. All 3 blades stamped LUKE FIRTHS CELEBRATED CUTLERY. Has WHARNCLIFFE KNIFE stamped on the face of the master blade. Levine dates this stamp 1849 to 1870. 150 plus years old. Barry

Sweet knife Barry ... A wharncliffe and gunstock in one - very cool and unique

Re: Wharncliffe Knives
Thanks guys. I have others. This next one is stamped PETER HENDRICH & GRAH on both blades. Nickel silver handles in a weird shape. It's 3 1/2" closed. I think I will call it a Swayback Mustache Jack. Has a nice long Wharncliffe master. Don't know anything about where it was made, but the names sound German. No info in Goins or Levine's. This unused knife was a little difficult to scan because of the reflection. It's very shiny. This one came from the Plainfield Fire Dept Knife Show about 6 or 8 years ago. Barry

Looked up last name first. (I find that works many times in Goins book research)
Peter Hendricks c 1922-1926
The firm of Peter Hendricks G.m.b.H. Solingen, Germany used trademark "Pharus" during these years. In 1926 the firm was sold to Friedr. Herder & Sohn.
Barry; You can look up: Friedr, Herder ABR Sohn on page #101 of Goins 1986 issue for further information of the buyer of your posted knife mfg.
I must add that your knife is in very nice condition for its age.

Re: Wharncliffe Knives
Those are some unique wharnies, Barry...Thanks for sharing.
Here are two "Wharnoes" (canoes that have had the master blades modified into wharncliffe blades).
