A Congress Pen

The first Robeson knives were imported by Millard Robeson from England and Germany exclusively. This continued from 1979 until 1896 when Robeson began manufacturing knives in the United States. Since inception, the company has gone through several reorganizations & eventually ended up as a Queen Cutlery brand.

I’ve always found it interesting that Robeson’s Congress Knife of that size and frame shape was numbered 088 and Case’s was 88.

Nice old knife.
