1965-69 6347 H. P. SS P

Post by Landersknives »

Hello my friends just picked up this 6347. It is missing a blade and shield. The handles are really nice. This pictures don’t do them justice. I would love some help on this knife. First identification of what I have exactly. In Sargents 1st and 2nd editions I have found the stamp but only in the XX era and listed as red Rogers bone. I thought the p may stand for a punch but I am just not sure. After identifying this knife, then I will be looking for the missing blade and a proper shield......and if I am to chicken to tackle trying to fix it, maybe a knife mechanic here who would like to bring this knife back to its former glory. I still am very apprehensive when it comes to penning shields on and this bone is gorgeous. Thank you to all that look and comment. Any and all is appreciated. I am posting these pics from my phone so I apologize if they are not oriented correctly.

Pretty sure the P is for pen as in pen blade you are missing on the bottom end. This will help in dating the knife.

This is a common knife and you shouldn't' have any problems getting parts. Watch on ebay and if you come up empty put an ad in the mechanic's swap forum and you''' get some help. Good luck in your efforts.

You may be right about the punch. H P is for sheepsfoot and pen denoting the 2 blades that are in the knife. Not sure?

Thanks Bob I had looked at those pages already and I have looked at other 6347 knives. The other knives I looked at had a sheepsfoot and a spey blade. I just want to make sure I get this put back together right. I appreciate your comments and trying to help me along the way.
