Re: Vintage Acid Etched & Stamped Blades
Thanks, WB. I think the Old English letters are really cool. It's one of my favorites.

I just picked up this Utica, check out the etch on this one. I have never seen a Utica with these handles never mind this etch.

Re: Vintage Acid Etched & Stamped Blades
It would be a reasonable assumption to date that one to 1908, Mike. Cool cross-collectible.

Really neat one Galvanic, what nice handles! I especially love the history told by that etch, a fantastic and rare piece. 
Also, that Craftsman of yours wiseguy is REALLY fine. Thanks for posting it.

Here is another English blade with a stamp I just could not resist. (I'm such a weakling)
Even the sheath is stamped "Made in England" Dave
This looks like your knife in an early 1960s Wostenholm catalog.

Re: Vintage Acid Etched & Stamped Blades
Nice one MB. A very bold, official etch! I really like the look of the LFC scouts. Although I'm not always a fan of imitation stag, these knives always seem to be well suited in it.

Re: Vintage Acid Etched & Stamped Blades
I don`t like the handle material either, but I will say this, they are the highest quality scout knife, hands down, of any other company that ever made them. The fit, finish and all quality materials such as nickle silver liners, coined edges, etc. The other companies don`t even come close, no wonder it took me so long to find a nice one, they sold very few of them, where as Remington, for example, sold millions of them, today the Remingtons in excellent condition are still "A dime a dozen"Beechtree wrote: I really like the look of the LFC scouts.
