F.R. Knife

[galvanic1882]

Does anyone have any info on this maker? It is marked on both blades THE F.R. CO. over FULTON NY. The knife is 4 1/2" closed.

I have had the knife for awhile but don't know what the company name was and anything about them. If anyone knows about it or has a knife marked like it I would really like to know.

Thanks Mike

Goins lists the F.R. Co. Fulton, NY - g. 1929-1930 - A marking used by Fulton Razor Company.

spot on. I found the same after looking in goins. Good work murph.

You know, Gino, they will have to pry my Goins and Price & Zalesky from my cold, stiff hands in order to get them away from me. Best bucks I ever spent.

Murph, I only have the Goins and a few other odd older books that I use but I think I am going to pick up the Price & Zalesky. Are you happy with it?

Yeh Man! It has a ton of information besides just maker's marks. Here is a scan of the Table of Contents. It deals very heavily with the major brands: Case, KaBar, Remington, etc, etc.

Galvanic,

I posted a Fulton (in a circle) on the mother of pearl thread. Charlie said that Fulton- F.C. Co was Robeson related. Although he does think mine is probably Canal-Fulton OH.

I wonder if Fulton Razor is Robeson related also?

Thanks Murph.
