Schatt & Morgan Dollar Knives, Atlanta

[RobesonsRme.com]

AAPK member and S&M collector extraordinaire, David Clark (Nifbuf), has published a truly remarkable article in this month's issue of KnifeWorld Magazine.

David, in his quest for information has uncovered previously unpublished facts about Schatt & Morgan Cutlery and their Atlanta connected Dollar Knife knives in particular.

David is to be commended for a well researched, well written and scholarly article.

Everyone here needs to read it. The genealogies alone are enough to make your eyes do a 360 in your head.

Congrats, David!

Charlie, I agree 100%. That was a great article. However, I had to read it three times just to absorb most of the information. So many twists and turns in the S&M/Atlanta connection.

Yeah, I had a hard time just keeping up with the Joneses.

It's a complex story.

This article was fascinating. Mr. Clark has done such an awesome job researching Schatt & Morgan and Dollar Knives!

I wonder if the Martin family realized what a treasure they had? To the knife collecting world, old documents like those are priceless.

I also find it interesting that the stamps for Curtain & Clark, Marshall Wells, Crown Cutlery, Griffon, Bridge and others are still at the Queen plant. It really sparks my curiosity to watch for those company names more often.

I have a Crown Cutlery knife which is a very simple ebony knife, that has seen better days. LG4 has Crown Cutlery listed twice. The first listing says Ger/Aust as the country of origin. Next, it lists that during WW1 that Crown was made in the USA.

I doubt that I would be lucky enough to have a USA made one, but I thought I would show you the knife.

Yes, VERY informative article! Thank You David Clark for sharing your investigation with us.

BTW, Mr. Clark is the person working with Queen on the new "heritage series" due out this year.

Charlie,
Thanks for the good words. Retirement has provided time for research and to do some writing. I recommended it --- especially the retirement part.
