Well, Bret & I took the plunge on this Beaver Falls Cutlery Co. I just had to have this one...

It has pretty good snap & still has half stops. I am not actually sure if it is ebony or if it is horn?

congrats on a RARE PA knife. It looks like horn to me. Nice one, I watched that one myself and if I didn't already own BFC I would liked it.

Thanks, David. The history of Beaver Cutlery is very interesting. I think to myself it was probably made by the Chinese workers they had brought in? It's one Chinese made knife I am proud to own! (Did I say that??

)

Great find.

The handles are horn. (imo) The lines in the handles look like hair, and horn is a type of hair. Horn beetle larva will eat hair also. The swedge on the pen blade is sweet.

Thanks, Bill! I am so

to have this knife. Those dermestid beetles better stay away! I think Miller Bro's said a ziploc bag & a mothball will work...

I have this little Schatt & Morgan Congress. It is a tiny little knife & the tang stamp is sideways. It also spells out

Schatt & Morgan
Cutlery Co.
Titusville Pa.

Instead of having the S X M. Does that make it earlier?

Sweet S&M Kathy. I never saw that one but I reall like any of them. ::envy::
Oh yeah, Brett pm me a week or two and I almost forgot. When is that Washington show?

biglmbass · Post by **biglmbass** » Sun Mar 13, 2011 2:43 pm

Wow, that little pearl congress is gorgeous.

knifegirl888 · Post by **knifegirl888** » Sun Mar 13, 2011 4:42 pm

bigimbass,

Thanks! It's such a pretty little knife. I am happy to have it!

Gino,

I asked Bret to look up when the Washington show is. He will have to look at his gunshow flyers. Washington is one of my favorite gun shows. It's pretty big by the standards around here & there are always knives to look at.

FRJ · Post by **FRJ** » Sun Mar 13, 2011 5:05 pm

Kathy, I'm courious too about that Washington show. Is it in Penn?

Bret888 · Post by **Bret888** » Sun Mar 13, 2011 11:06 pm

Gino, I am not tellin', you will scarf up all the good ones! Seriously, the Washington show is April 9th & 10th.

Joe,
Yes it is kinda in the southwest corner of PA. It is a gunshow, but always has a few knives.

gino · Post by **gino** » Sun Mar 13, 2011 11:17 pm

Brett, LOL!! I am gonna try to get there on the 9th. My wifes b-day is the 10th so I dont think I will be going that day. I will pm you a few days before and maybe we can meet up at the show if your going on the 9th?

knifegirl888 · Post by **knifegirl888** » Sun Mar 13, 2011 11:26 pm

We would prefer to go the 9th, as long as nothing else prevents us from going that day. Hope to see you there!

I just have to show this one off. It came on Saturday from Mild Bill In Texas. Awesome Baldwin Cutlery Tidioute Whittler.

This a a gorgeous knife and is pictured in my book about GEC.

I finally was able to talk Bill out of it.

Not really, he convinced me I needed it!!!!!!

Glad he did.

In my world, "if it ain't from PA, it's probably not a knife"

Did they ever make a Lackawanna with bone handles? All I have ever seen is celluloid. I actually met and talked to the granddaughter of the owner Of Lackawanna Knife Co. about a year and a half ago in a antique store in a little town up route 11 south of New Milford Pa. (I cant remember the name) She took me and showed me a original table and some of the wood knife boxes they used. I had a good time visiting with her.
