Vintage Whittler Knives

[toomanyknives]

Reviving an old, but great thread.

Got this circa 1910 to 1916 Terrier Cutlery, Rochester, NY whittler off Ebay last week.

Terrier was a subsidiary company of Robeson Cutlery Company.

Beautiful knife, Charlie.

Since Charlie revived this thread, I’ll throw in some content. These have been posted here elsewhere before, but they fit this thread.

What a fine and rare bunch of great knives, Ken. Thanks for posting those!

[Mumbleypeg]

Thanks! There are more around here somewhere, if I can find them, or their pictures.

Here are a few more I dug out (the pictures). A couple of them I’m not sure of their age, so I guess it depends on your definition of “vintage” as to whether they belong here.

All are vintage in my eyes

[Mumbleypeg]

A few more.

Wow, how long is the York?

[Mumbleypeg]

Wow, how long is the York?

IIRC it is 4-1/4 inches. Probably a “sausage knife”.

A few more.

Not too recently, I obtained this pocket knife. It now becomes my latest example to be posted under this topic or thread. It is a CAMILLUS, three blades (one has a file), 3 5/16" closed, one tang stamp, milled liners, "split spring" (I Know That It's NOT A TRUE SPLIT SPRING), whittler, pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "CAMILLUS (over) CUTLERY CO. (over) CAMILLUS N.Y. (over) U.S.A." Overall, this pocket knife is in VERY GOOD condition. I took some pictures and here it is.

That's.....

Thank you, Kerry.

That.....

Thank you, Ike.

That’s a nice old whittler Skip. I don’t think I have a Camillus whittler, which is a shame. I’ll have to see if I can find a good’un.

Here’s more from my pile.

Not too recently, I obtained this pocket knife. It now becomes my latest example to be posted under this topic or thread. It is a CAMILLUS 60, three blades (one has a file), 3 1/8" closed, two tang stamps, milled liners, fancy springs, tip bolsters, "split spring" (I Know That It's NOT A TRUE SPLIT SPRING), whittler, pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp (short line) says, "CAMILLUS (over) NEW YORK (over) USA" The main blade back tang stamp says, "60", the pattern number. Overall, this pocket knife is in VERY GOOD condition. I took some pictures and here it is.

***** NOTE ***** NOTE ***** NOTE ***** NOTE *****
According to the 1946 CAMILLUS catalog, the CAMILLUS "60" is called a "DE LUXE SENATOR PEN KNIFE."
With some MINOR additional research, it appears that the "60", at some point, became the more familiar
"stockman" pattern, was called "Old Smoothie " and again at some point, evolved into the "61" I could NOT
find a "60" listed after 1978. The pattern number, NOT the pocket knife itself. There is ROOM FOR ERROR
in my findings, so.....
