A Tickler

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.

Thank you for your comments . I think this pattern W.S. was only produced from 1931 -41 as I have not seen it offered in catalog pages after the name change to western Boulder Colorado.The knife was gifted to me from a knife enthusiast friend and has a lot of sentimental value to me I feel fortunate to be its care taker for awhile .It was a knife I had been looking for for several years to add to my W.S. Fish knifes .The knife was also offered in bone stag .Maybe someone will see this posting sometime in the future and put up a picture of the bone stag that has alluded my searches for years . attachment=0]IMG_7977.jpeg[/attachment].....MMyattachment=0]IMG_7977.jpeg[/attachment]

Yes, those knives are Robesons and they can be found, I hope, in the Robeson Cutlery Collectors Forum.
