AAPKers:
I am placing this in the Lore because i'm sure that this is the only place some of the most experienced and knowledgeable members visit with regularity.
Have just checked the member list and found something over 7600 members I think someone may have seen or have one of these knives. Any and all interested please post or put in your comments about this cutter. All I have is the line drawing and the caption with it. Thanks,
moss

Thanks, At least that explains the Marbles type action. A person would not think the condition would warrant the bin. Maybe 125 in current market. But then again rarity goes a long way for some.

I don`t think they are that Rare. I see several for sale every year.

I have an old Union Cut. Co.catalog and the pattern number is #61161 for a stag handle knife Carbon blade and #611610 for one with stag handle and a Stainless Steel blade.
