Any CSC Cannitler collectors out there? (PICTURE THREAD)

Former Schrade President Walley Gardner and principal Joe Hufnagel joined with nine master cutlers to form a group of US craftsmen with over 300 years of combined knife making experience to create Canal Street Cutlery. It was first located in upstate New York where a long and rich tradition of quality knife making dates back to the 19th century. Unfortunately, the company closed its doors in 2015, but not before making some great knives. The brand was resurrected in 2018 as Canal Street Cutlery Co-Op & focused on making very small batches of high quality traditional knives. As a Co-Op, it was owned by the knife makers who worked there. Unfortunately, the business model couldn't hold up & the entity again ceased production.

The American Chestnut series is real nice - each is different in that some even have nail holes from the barn! ::tu::

Yep,I don't own any but I sure am tempted to git one of those.That is one cool knife.They have all the history on the barn wood at SMKW and it was a long history.

I can't tell from the pics I've seen - most are straight on from the front.
Is the CS canittler a true whittler? Does the main blade ride on two springs?
Thanks!

Yes Blue, the main blade rides on two springs while the two secondary blades each ride on one spring. It's a very stout design.

Well don't I feel stupid. As many times as I've looked at these and it just now hit me. A 'Canoe' frame with the blade configuration of a 'Whittler' = 'Cannitler' ::doh:: ::doh:: ::doh::

I have one like the first one you listed with the amber bone handles.
I use it in my shop. Great knife I really like Canal Street knives, though I like them more for users than to collect them.
CS makes some of the best user knives on the market, IMO.

"kah nit ler" is the way I'd pronounce it Jerry, but I'm from the south so your milage (and pronunciation) may vary.

Phil, I think we're saying the same thing in a different phonetic language.

'Ka' as in kaboom
'nit' as in the larvae of head lice
'ler' as in the last part of whitt'ler'

Now my head hurts. ::facepalm::

That's it. But you gotta SHOUT it - like the boys on SMKW TV.

(emphasis on the 'NIT' part)

Summer pine smooth bone, made in 2012:

This arrived yesterday. First impressions: It's a useful variety of blades in a nice compact package, as slim as a Pinch or close to it. Closed length is 90mm (just over three and a half inches). The main blade is 70mm long (2.75 inches) and 4mm thick (almost 1/6 inch) at the tang. Both secondary blades are about 1.5mm thick, which is getting into Opinel territory. All three blades came extremely sharp.
