Boys Knives Through the Years
Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
Some awesome knives being shown in this thread! Here's a stag-handled one made by A. F. Bannister & Co. It's one of the smaller boy's knives at 2 5/8" closed.

Always looking for vintage knives with Virginia, Maryland, or Washington D.C. tang stamps. Any condition.

espn77: Very much drawn to the spear point on your 1063.
Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
Thanks QS, if only the pen blade didn't set a tick high. I'm just happy to have one with an etch.
Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
I wanted to share this Remington Boys Knife R23CH which Keith motivated me to look for based on his knives but needed to find the right photo - the knife was in the Knife Magazine article but I couldn't use the same exact photo as I think they now have it copyrighted .. just don't know but didn't want to chance any issues so a slightly different photo)... anyway rolling off Keith's beautiful examples this is my best Remington that I own for sure (and btw both have full blades but don't have a photo of the pen blade at the moment)... lucky to have it and thanks to Steve Pfeiffer (knifeaholic) in finding it ....

Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
That's a real beauty there, Lee, and a nice accessory.
All you guys are showing great looking knives on this page. I wouldn't give them to any boy.

Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
Just picked up another Grahamsville to go with the one I had! Poor sharpening job on it.
Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
Beautiful old knives you have there, Mike.
I have not seen that stamp before, but it's just like you to come up with the unusual stamp we can all learn from.
Here's a little A. W. Wadsworth & Son that I overlooked.

Here’s a little Millers brothers. Anyone got an idea on the age?
Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
Attica Knife Co., Goins book says best guess, g. 1875-1900 hard to find stamp. Look quite like the Russell made "BOY OF AMERICA" knives.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
Thanks Joe! That Attica is a Cattaraugus product one of their secondary marked knives along with Valley Falls. Still love that one. Here is another one with a chain.
Re: Boys Knives Through the Years
Joe - Classic old nice knife with great wood, bail and all
Kerry - Nice old Miller Bros .. hard to date that cutlery by the stamp but I would say +/- 1900 ... Goins notes for that specific Miller Bros stamp 1863-1926 but 1863-1872 they were in Yaleville & Wallingford CT so given Meriden is on the stamp I would say 1872-1926...
Wayne - Interesting for sure... The Attica no doubt has great similarities to the Russell - I have the latter. I actually never knew Attica made those as well (or was there a connection between them as Russell did a fair amount of contract work ) - pretty cool either way!!
Mike - That M&G is sweet - whole knife and etch is superb!!
