Found this Ulster Official BSA today; this one has sawcut Delrin handles and is marked stainless steel. The can opener and the cap-lifter are much heavier duty than my other Ulster BSA (jigged Delrin and carbon steel). This one appears unused except for a little shelf marking from laying around several decades. OH

Just got this New York Knife Co./ Walden for my Birthday !! I am pretty sure it dates from 1931 or before according to Goins. I am a very blessed fellow. Happy New Year to all.

The master blade on that knife is not original, it was a tang stamp Schrade used on some repros they made.

The frame and pen blade look original, from what I can see in the picture.

I believe someone replaced a worn out or broken blade on this knife ::nod::

I think Dimitri is right about the main blade being replaced. But, I still think it is a beautiful knife. Happy Birthday. ::nod:: Mark.

Hey guys thanks for the information. If I may ask since this was a self bought birthday gift, How does the replaced blade effect the desirability or the value of the knife ? Thanks gentlemen I am very grateful for your knowledge and feedback. If I am correct the knife dates back from the thirty's , which is why I was impressed with its quality. I love these older knives.

MB,

That was my original thought. The tooling used for both stamps is inconsistent. I have never seen a NYKC knife out of Walden tang stamp with USA. After Imperial bought the hammer brand trademark one would see USA on the tang, but not before.

Still a very god looking old knife :D Bonehead

My guess is 8OT because that is a Spey and not a pen.

I just got back with a few flea market finds...can't wait to do a bit of research and clean these up a bit. Scored a few old American ...Case, Imperial, Cutco, German (CSC), Premier Lifetime, some Sheffield knives, one of those Japanese razor sharp folders, and a real nice mother of pearl Anticorro (Italian?). $2 a piece This will give me something to do in the next few weeks.
cheers

Lawrence you shouldn't have mentioned that Premier Lifetime. Now Josh (June Bug) will be pestering you to send it to him. ::facepalm::
