Scout knife

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 knife patterns that ordinarily have bone handles and especially those with a 6***** number, but instead have black composition pressure molded handles, are circa WWII or shortly after and that impressed paint filled “shield” is another indicator of WWII manufacture.
