Canal Street Wolverine Knife club

Former Schrade President Walley Gardner and principal Joe Hufnagel joined with nine master cutlers to form a group of US craftsmen with over 300 years of combined knife making experience to create Canal Street Cutlery. It was first located in upstate New York where a long and rich tradition of quality knife making dates back to the 19th century. Unfortunately, the company closed its doors in 2015, but not before making some great knives. The brand was resurrected in 2018 as Canal Street Cutlery Co-Op & focused on making very small batches of high quality traditional knives. As a Co-Op, it was owned by the knife makers who worked there. Unfortunately, the business model couldn't hold up & the entity again ceased production.

Canal Street Wolverine Knife club

Post by Gr8Scout »

Got two of these beauties in the mail yesterday. Canal Street Cutlery was choosen by my club, the Wolverine Knife Collectors, to make our 2007 club knife. It's a cannitler. Hey, who invented this hybrid pattern? Frank Buster or Jim Parker? Anyway, it is perfect.

Larry, you have been patient, I am sending yours to you tomorrow.

Hey Phil:
Great knife. A quick question. My query is if Queen made one would they quickly call it the quintessential Qwhittler? Maybe Parker, they seem to have a way when there is a will.

Edit: Really nice I bet to have both side of blades polished. How about a photo of reverse.

Phil,

They are stunning! I see it was the shields they had to put on last time I saw them. They were shield-less when Wally brought them out. Very Nice!

Both sides of all three blades are highly polished. I have never seen a knife more beautiful.

Mine arrived today.
Ill post some closeup scans in a bit. Great knife.
These are super sharp. I haven't bled this bad in a while. Wacked my index finger on the main blade while taking it off the scanner. Well I guess its broken in now.
