JKB, how do you keep that knife from falling out of that photo?

Very interesting knives posted by all. I agree with Longblade about that Henry Sears harness jack. It is a very appealing knife on every level.

Trying to take pictures with my iPads is pretty sad. Just thought one of my Jack Knife Bens needed to get some fresh air.

A pair of John Primble's with interesting etch's. Any idea of the time frame these may have been made ?

Very nice examples.
The "Uncle Sam" with that etch was offered in the 1930s and 1940s, and with a different etch after WWII. Enclosed is a pre WWII catalog cut of that model. The other model is not shown in any 1930s, 1940s, or 1950s catalogs and was either a non listed model or possibly an earlier knife.

The top one appears to be Schrade made, probably in the 50's.The other is older.Both are very nice.Love the Uncle Sam etch.

[Mason]

And Boker was the maker on the "Uncle Sam".

[WelderBob]

Thank you guy's, I thought one could be a Schrade but no idea the other is by Boker....that makes me happy...

Mason, I like that add pic, looks like mine but I see the etch is a bit different.

Goins dates the stamp 1940 - 1968, but others have already narrowed that down further for you.

Here is a fairly uncommon "Schrade Cut." spring fired model with a nice etch.

Mason, I would say so.

That's a beautiful knife, Mason. Very, very nice.

Mason, your Schrade hunting knife hits all the marks for a fine vintage knife: etch, swedge, handles, and then some with being an auto.

[Mason]

Thanks all, and I've sure enjoyed seeing so many fantastic knives and etches within this thread.
