Robeson swing guard

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.

Robeson swing guard

Post by edge213 »

I'm in search of a swing guard for a Robeson 512872.
I will post a picture of my knife and one with the guard that I need.

There is a knife mechanic that posts on Facebook that could probably do that.

I’d send him both knives, though.

Herbert Okleshan did a fantastic job on one of mine years ago, but he has retired.

I can't help at all but to say that knife is really cool! Hope you post a pic when you find the guard.
