Post by jonet143 »

some towns did'nt have a sears to shop. mongomery wards was available to some. here's an old wards jack. still solid and lots of life left. winchester and utica made most of their knives. this is probably made by utica. have you guys got any store brand knives?

good knives

Post by Kiferbros »

We have several Wards knives and they are nice well built knives. one nice thing about Wards is they have not hit the top end as far as price goes...yet, some real nice ones can still be found at a reasonable price, nice to have a few in any collection.

Schrade did knives for Wards also.This is one of my Native American series done by Schrade .This one was done in 1983 for Wards as a Christmas promo according to a letter Codger showed at BF recently.

John Primble Belknap made top line knives for both Sears and Montgomery Wards for many years. They were very good knives.
