Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Picked up a few more Canal Street knives....loving it's!
Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Tom, you've got some real beauties there! That two blade congress is really a unique one, I don't recall those ever being produced, and that shield is an unusual one too!!

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
I do not have a Canal Street Room, however, I have carved out a section of my Schrade Room just for the Canal Street Knives. They are like step siblings...lol. After all, family is family...
Eric, that 2 blade half congress was really unique...that's why I grabbed it up. I have never seen one before, it is a Canal Street knife and the shield is extremely unique...never seen one of those either. I need to catch up with Wally and Uncle Harold to get the scoop on this puppy. It also has half stops...I had to have it.
The swell center Jack was for Moore Maker and the folding Hunter with liner lock was a prototype for KaBar
Then there is the Stag 1873 Bowie and then a couple other fixed blades I didn't have. Trying to get a large gathering of Canal Street History before it becomes extinct or outrageously priced. Got to preserve the history as much as I can.

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
I was wondering who ended up with that half congress. If you ever get the story behind that one please post it. I saw it on the bay but that shield scared me off for what they were asking for it.
Definitely a cool piece.

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Thanks Lyle, good to be here. I like that avatar, great to see that knife found a good home among its peers
Tom, did a few repairs for Regina up in Grahamsville, great people. Chuck's got a very impressive collection of early CS.

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Tom that's a bunch of wonderful knives you've added.
I'm particularly impressed with that set of stag knives. Do you know the story on those ?

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Phil,
That was a set made for Red Hill Cutlery. 1 of 15 or 1 of 25 made, can't remember exactly. Yes, I was very glad to add that set to the gathering!

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Wow, quite the knife ! I have a similar one that is a Canal Street Cutlery knife. Did CSC make any other knives for Moore Maker ?
I lost interest in MM after Camillus closed in 2007 because i thought Bear Mfg. got a contract to replace Camillus. I assume the bone & Stag handled MM still come from Queen ?

If it's expensive, it's made by Queen.
If it's inexpensive, and there's a B after the model number, it's made by Bear and Sons.
If it's inexpensive, and there's a U after the model number, it's made by Utica.
If it's inexpensive, and there's no letter after the model number, it was made by Camillus.
Canal Street made the Pinch Lockback for Moore Maker as well

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Until Doug posted the picture of his Moore Makers trapper I had no idea that Canal Street had used the Swell Centered Jack frame to build a trapper. With Doug's help I was able to locate one with mesquite handles. Unfortunately (for me) it appears he snagged the only abalone model up for sale. Life can be so cruel.

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Anyone have some info on this shield? Looks like Earnhardt's #3 to me.

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
It's possible that Canal Street did an SFO for MacTools. They were an Earnhart sponsor and had knives done by Schrade as well. I'm sure Wally kept them in his rolodex
That's an early knife so it would have been done roughly between 2004 and 2008.

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Phil, that's a fantastic find. I think there were only twenty five of those pearl handled swing guards made for Cumberland Knife Works if I can remember correctly. Goes back to nearly the beginning.

Re: Latest Canal Street Additions
Thanks Eric. I didn't think there were many of them floating about. I feel very fortunate to be able to add this one to my collection. By the way you are responsible for me adding another knife to my pile. It's not a Canal Street per se but according to a post I saw you make, it was made by Canal Street.
