Who's into S & M?
Re: Who's into S & M?
Lovely Q! I take it the 'New York' tang stamp is special. Can you tell me more?

Re: Who's into S & M?
The New York tang stamp was used on the Premier Series. Here is a link to the Premier Series thread viewtopic.php?f=61&t=15483&hilit=premier
It was also the oldest Schatt & Morgan tang stamp 1897-1902

Got this beautiful S&M Wharncliffe Whittler from kj(Roland). By no means my first Schatt and Morgan, but my first ivory S&M. This knife is over the top.

SSk, To state the obvious, that is a beautiful knife. Fine coloring on the ivory.

Re: Who's into S & M?
Thanks guys. I have been avoiding ivory or mammoth ivory simply due to how hard it’s getting to sell. But when Roland offered me this one, I just couldn’t say no. This has a classical look to it. It’s what I always imagined a “true” knife should look like.

There are many different types of ivory; so, just in case anyone wasn't sure, Mark's 1997 S&M Wharncliffe Whittler is interior Mammoth ivory, not Elephant ivory (or Walrus, Warthog or Narwhal ivory, etc.). The S&M Bomber Jack and Wharncliffe Trapper I posted earlier in this thread are from the same year and have interior mammoth ivory handles just like it...presumably from the same batch of interior mammoth ivory S&M used on all their ivory knives that year.carrmillus wrote:...love that knife, but I just can't make myself like ivory!!!!
I'll show my two again, just for comparison (and because I can!)

QS, Thank you for telling me this. That will go into my records so that down the road there is no problem selling for someone this. Although I suspect that mammoth ivory will be just as hard to sell in the future as elephant ivory. I have gone round after round w/ eBay over this issue already.
QS, those two you posted are extremely nice. They have that “true” knife look also.

Q, really nice. I too like the Keystone series. I sold my Keystone Congress the other day. That will be one that I regret selling. But I told myself that if I got that price I would sell it and low and behold I got that price. Now I am on the hunt for another one, at the right price. Gives me something to look forward too.
Have you noticed that the prices on S&M knives seem to be moving up lately? Not so much on Queen but definitely S&M knives.
Those are some beauties you got there.
