Knice knives Trey! What are they?

Thanks, Scott, The top knife is an Orvet modified Robeson Pocketeze. He removed the small blade, rehandled in smooth red bone and added and EO notch.

The bottom is a custom Muskrat Man knife with L6 steel and walrus oosik handles.

I posted this in the Robeson Cutlery Company thread, but I'll post it here as well.

I just got this little Robeson EO from AAPK's Roger Cunningham.

The knife is smaller than the usual 3 3/4" Robeson 027 EO and measures only 3 3/8".

Its pattern number is 622277.

The master has a partial etch, "...ELMAN & BECHTEL".

I was not aware this pattern even existed. I showed it to Pete Cohan. He's never seen one either.

Nice one Charlie!
I like that bone. Did Robeson have a name for that type of jigging?

Well, I want one!

That wouldn't just make for a nice weekend... that would make for a nice YEAR for me!

Joedirt,

We went to a gunshow in Washington, PA. It is one of the biggest shows around here & we have had good luck there. Thanks so much for the nice comment!

That's a really unique EO Kathy.

Here's one I got from Dale at the show last weekend.

Knice Perry!!

Perry,

That is a great looking group!

orvet · Post by **orvet** » Thu Apr 19, 2012 2:03 pm

I picked this one up at the OKCA show before Perry got there, Friday I think it was.

According to Goins' the tang stamp puts it at 1905-1936.
It is yet another example of a German shell handled knife made before Imperial started making shells here in the USA (c. 1936).

I have seen this type knife before, with no wording on the handle or the words "BOYS KNIFE."
This is the first one I have seen that said "BOYS EASY OPENER."

Despite the short blade and the missing lanyard loop, I think it is pretty cool.

singin46 · Post by **singin46** » Thu Apr 19, 2012 5:25 pm

Yep, I got to see this one in person and it is very cool! You always seem to find the cool stuff hiding beneath the surface.
Are you gonna put a new bail on it Dale?

Whitebuffalo58 customized this Schrade Walden into an EO for me

Camillus 4 line ~
$ 3.50 at a flea market ~
Doesn't look like it was used much~
Didn't even have to clean or sharpen ~
This knife is going in my pocket for awhile.

Shuuuu-Weeeeeeeee that is a great find. Congrats

knives-are-quite, that's a WW II Navy knife. I have a whole write-up on it at work, just have to remember to e-mail it to myself. Nice!

Does it have USA stamped on the pen blade?
