Starting right

Former Schrade President Walley Gardner and principal Joe Hufnagel joined with nine master cutlers to form a group of US craftsmen with over 300 years of combined knife making experience to create Canal Street Cutlery. It was first located in upstate New York where a long and rich tradition of quality knife making dates back to the 19th century. Unfortunately, the company closed its doors in 2015, but not before making some great knives. The brand was resurrected in 2018 as Canal Street Cutlery Co-Op & focused on making very small batches of high quality traditional knives. As a Co-Op, it was owned by the knife makers who worked there. Unfortunately, the business model couldn't hold up & the entity again ceased production.

WOW philco

You sure like to show those super Canal Streets... ::tu::

I think that you would make a GR8 Canal Street Dealer.

With all the ones you have and showen you could keep every knife Canal sends you to sell.... ::drool::

Thats why I am not a Canal Street dealer. I just could not sell the ones I like and I like all of them. This has to be a hard thing to do being a collector and dealer.

Just keep showing yours it gives me something to look forward to(and buy). :lol:

Phil, that cotton picken US Postal Service has mixed our mailing addresses up again. No need to be a bother to them so I'll just send you the postage fee and you can go ahead and forward those babies on to me. ::sneaky:: You could call the postal service and complain about me getting all the bills if you wanted to. I have to be getting someone else's bills besides my own cause I don't remember buying everything I get a bill for. ::shrug::

Jim,
I'm fairly certain they did make a pearl congress for Bill Horn about a year or so after their startup. I know he had about five or so patterns done in pearl, I just don't recall if the congress was one of them.
