Re: Henry Sears and Son 1865
Nice pearls Joe! I particularly like the whittler. What is the etch on the blade?
I have one or two Henry Sears & Son pearls. Somewhere. Now I'll have to see if I find them.

Last name is "Larimer". Initials are H's or K's I think.

Re: Henry Sears and Son 1865
Thank you very much, Charlie. I couldn't decipher the script. Never gave it much thought actually.
I appreciate your search as I'm sure others do too.

Re: Henry Sears and Son 1865
I sure don't know but I think some came from Germany. I have this junior cattle knife with what appears to be Rogers bone and a general PAL look about it, which are both American companies. I really like this little knife, and I think it likes me. I have no idea about the QUEEN shield. It has nothing to do with Queen cutlery.kootenay joe wrote:Does anyone know who manufactured the 'Henry Sears & Son 1865' knives ? F.-O.-K. was the distributor/wholesaler.

Thanks for showing that knife, Cal. You're right, that big angular clip looks like a Pal blade.

Re: Henry Sears and Son 1865
No connection. Sears Roebuck was founded in 1886. Henry Sears Co. was founded in 1865, later became Henry Sears & Son in 1883. Not the same company.KnifeSlinger#81 wrote:So henry sears had nothing to do with sears roebuck? I've seen the brand around but never knew anything about them.

Thank you for the pictures, Roger. What a great looking knife.
Thanks for the heads up with the tight serrations on the matchstrike for the Phoenix connection.

Re: Henry Sears and Son 1865
1865 was when the company started, not when all the knives were made. I have only one Henry Sears & Sons knife, I would group it into the camper pattern, although others may call it a bartenders knife. The main blade is quite short, indicating that at some point the tip has snapped off. The multipurpose blade has bottle & can opener. It has nice bone handles. I carry it from time to time.

Re: Henry Sears and Son 1865
Thanks for showing that very nice knife, Olde Cutler.
That old bone looks like it has been under a lot of use as does the blade.
It may have just been sharpened to that dimension. Or not ..........
An honest old knife for sure.

Re: Henry Sears and Son 1865
I picked up this Henry Sears & Son 1865 Jr. cattle knife yesterday at a gunshow. Doesn't look like it has been used much and is in good shape except for the one crack in the celluloid. The tang stamp on this one is in much smaller letters that the other one I have. Can dates be deduced on Henry Sears & Son knives by this difference?
