Maybe this wee tiny ELECTRIC CUTLERY will pass muster as a congress.

And an even smaller LION CUTLERY

I've got a few of these.

A couple of 5464 Bokers...

Appaloosa Bone

...and an extremely nice #32 Queen large congress.

: Queen #32 ACSB

: Queen #32 ACSB

The Queen is an interesting story. When I first got it the shield fell out and that made me notice the crack in the bone scale that ran under the shield. I sent it back to Queen with a note asking them to replace the scale and, since they had it in the shop, tighten up one pivot slightly. Lo and behold, they sent a whole new knife, and a darned near perfect one at that - no cracks, gaps, or play to be found. The springs are perfectly flush even in the half stop positions, and they even brush-finished the spring ends and tang ends. Queen went out of their way to pick a good one, and it only took a little over 2 weeks for them to get it back to me (and at least 1 of those was shipping time - Oklahoma to Pennsylvania is a long haul). I like all my Queen knives, but they have really impressed me with this one!

Here's one of mine. Robt. Klaas. Note only one bird. Still looking for some good info on this knife.

I must admit that the Congress pattern never has been a big favorite of mine, but looking through all the great pics in this thread makes me wonder why..!

JFarmer;
Is the pattern number on that Robeson located on the back of the master tang, or on the front?

I must say that's about the best looking piece of Delrin I've ever seen on a Robeson knife.

Here are a few of my congress knives. I didn't realize till I started looking for some to add to this thread just how many of these I have. One of my top two favorite patterns.
