The one on the far right looks like a 1950's "picklock." The bolsters are nickel silver
and the handles old horn. I'd clean off those bolsters. Any tang stamp on that one?

Gentlemen, you've come to the right place!! I have ALL those parts to repair almost all of what I've seen in the past five pages!! I currently have a lot of SB parts for sale on knife-auctions.com, and I'm convinced, at the end of this auction, I beleive it's today some time, Mr. Joe Keating will be in possesion of the INCREDIBLE bunch of old SB parts !! There are all kinds of Colonial, Hammer Brand, and even some Schrade Presto parts enough to make a whole Presto!! The lot includes handle pairs, liners, skeleton's with blades and a BIG bunch of buttons, locks, levers, springs, anything you can imagine!! So after Joe wins the auction tonight, you guys can all contact him and fight over the parts you need!! No fights, lets just get everyone what they need! My SB lot includes HUNDREDS of parts that I consider a "gold mine" of antique parts. Since I consider Joe Keating to be one of the most honest, friendly, intellegant men I have ever talked to, I'm sure he'll make every one happy!! If you want to view the parts, go to knife-auction.com right from here and you can pick and choose and if Santa says you've been good boys, (and if Joe likes you), you will find the parts you need from him. I give him complete controll!!!!!!!!!!!
Best wishes men, Bobby, (The Colonial Knife Expert), Paolantonio...
If there is a very specific pin or nail that you might need for your special knife, call Joe.
He will be in possesion by Monday of THOUSANDS OF PINS, NAILS AND RIVETS, that nobody has seen in 100 years...See what happens when you get on my good side??
I must say, I have never met Joe, but I personally think the WORLD of him, just through mails and phone conversations!!
