Help with Robeson identification.
Help with Robeson identification.
This knife is part of a collection of assorted knives I inherited. I know it's a Robeson 2 blade. From looking through books and this is where I get confused, I'm guessing an equal end pen (other thoughts were serpentine or senator. With cocobolo or brown bone, maybe rosewood. Kinda all looks the same to me. Please enlighten me. Thanks.
Here's a close up. No numbers.

Re: Help with Robeson identification.
Welcome to AAPK! Nice knife, looks like in great condition. Are there any numbers stamped on it? I'd call it an equal-end pen. The handles appear to be ebony wood. We have some Robeson experts here, and one will be along soon to tell us for sure.
Looking forward to seeing the rest of your inherited collection.

Welcome to AAPK!
Looks like Ebony to me, too.
If there was going to be a pattern number, it would be on the back of the larger blade, which is facing the camera in that photo.
Could we see a photo of the tang stamping on the large blade?

I'm guessing you weren't really interested in knowing about your knife.
