Humason & Beckley Mfg. Co
I was pleased to land this the other day, a big H&B clasp knife 5 1/2" closed, shows honest wear, plenty of patina. I like the H&B stamp on the blade and the 5 handle scale pins. Hard snap and half stop. I like these big ol' knives. Let's see your old H&Bs

Nice one! I don't have any H&B knives right now, but all the ones I've seen have been real nice.

Re: Humason & Beckley Mfg. Co
I have had some H&B knives in the past and like the deep etch or stamp on the face of the blade also. They are some well made knives. I just picked the Warrior up last week. I cleaned it up a bit and the main blade so some snap left but the secondary blade is dead. Nice iron hardware all around and I love the pattern, bolsters and the way the spring come all the way around on the secondary blade. It's about 3 1/4" closed
Thanks Kaleb for starting the post.

It has been a couple years since anyone has posted in this thread.
Are there any more H & B knives in your collections or in your pockets?

Re: Humason & Beckley Mfg. Co
Here's a couple:
A sterling silver scaled 3 blade with original pouch.
A folding hunter.
I have a couple more but can't find the pics;I'll have to dig them out and re-shoot them.

Re: Humason & Beckley Mfg. Co
Here is a new one to me (but how many people has this particular knife been new to? hmmm....). An old Hunter with jigged bone.
Can any one tell me any info on this type of jigged bone? Where it gets its red coloration from?
Also, there are a couple of small gaps between the scales and the bolsters, would I be correct in thinking this is due to shrinkage of the bone?
(edit: it has been pointed out to me that the jigged bone is reworked, just wanted to posted that here)
