Show off your Winchester Knives

Winchester entered the knife market as a manufacturer in 1919 by acquiring two existing knife companies; Eagle Knife Co. of Connecticut & Napanoch Knife Co. of New York. Winchester stepped away from the market in 1942 to focus on war related manufactured products, but re-entered in the late 1980s by licensing its name to Blue Grass Cutlery. Blue Grass had high quality knives made by Queen Cutlery that featured the Winchester brand name for a handful of years until the license arrangement ran its course. Winchester eventually started licensing to other companies & now you will find the brand name used by several knife manufacturers by way of license agreements.

Nice couple of Cokebottle knives. ::tu:: ::tu:: Do you know if the difference in the jigging pattern equates to a difference in age? For example, I wonder if the knife with longer groove-like jigging might be newer. My basis for that observation is from a couple of Remington knives I have where the more Rogers-like jigging is on an earlier knife than groove-like jigging.

Jerry, I wondered the same thing! I’m sure it is related to age but hard to prove. Because they were different I had to keep both.

Thanks to all for the compliments!
