Re: A Few of My Western's
L39 was my first fixed blade. My mother got it for me with Green Stamps or Plaid Stamps (she collected both) in 1958, the summer I turned 14 yo. It's been rode hard and put away wet. Dale rebuilt it for me some years back (probably early 20-teens).OLDE CUTLER wrote: ↑Fri Nov 03, 2017 6:43 pm Great pics of Western knives, guys. A few of mine. L39 skinner, 652 pen, 292 peanut, S901 camper/scout, 062 folding hunter. The Western 062 folding hunter is very distinctive among the different brands of folding hunters. It is a lot slimmer and more graceful looking.

Re: A Few of My Western's
I have a few old Westerns. Pics of the more unique ones below. I can’t find any info on the Fork/Knife Combo Set in leather pouch. Any info would be appreciated!
Re: A Few of My Western's
Nice group, that shadow pattern knife/saw is cool!

Re: A Few of My Western's
Since the knife/fork set has the full bifurcated tang patent number, they are post-1932. (1931 and first 1/2 or 2/3 of 1932 would have PAT APP'l'D FOR and the rest of 1932 would have PAT. PEND.)
The bucking cowboy says pre-WW2. It was not used during or after the war to my knowledge.
The set does not show up in the 1925, 1931, 1936 or 1941 catalogs. I checked 1925 just in case they were offered pre-patent.
So a mystery as to when they came out. That's the best I can do.

Re: A Few of My Western's
Thanks for the info! Interesting. I’m holding onto the set, but curious on the potential value. The set appears to be in unused condition. Never sharpened for sure.
