Lee - you are correct, there are a lot of similarities between the two knives, did not mean to sound however I sounded?

Here is a C.F. Wolfertz jack I got awhile ago. Goins says 1905 to 1944.

Pretty sure the hard-to-read curved tang stamp from UTICA is pre 1960

Imperial 1930-1936 making this FISH KNIFE at least 80 years old, possibly 86.....and she's as tight as the day she left the factory with the same wicked snap!

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
That Imperial is about like the first knife Daddy got me,I was 4 or 5, and a bigger boy begged me out of it. Welcome to the world Lyle.
Dimitri is that Schrade faded or did they make a lighter french ivory?

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
Hi Lyle, the knife appears unused to me never sharpened the color looks pretty consistent with what I have seen.
Do you have a knife from Schrade that is darker?

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
How about a Dunlap (Sears).
And an Imperial Scout (1946-1956)
Here are four pre-1960 Schrades -- 1937, 1948, 1953 and 1958
This Schatt & Morgan has been around since the early 20th Century.
I'll quit for now with a Syracuse Knife Company EZ-Open 1935-1940

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
Super looking knives JohnR and Jerry
JohnR - Your pile of jacks is awesome - each and everyone - nice wood and jigged bone
... I can't quite make out the maker stamps - what have we here??
I think I am seeing a nice Challenge Cut Co jack on bottom if I am not mistaken....

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
Thank you, you are right, it is a Challenge, going clockwise, a Lawton, 1900 or so, an Electric, a New York Knife Co, Cattaraugus and a Dwight Devine Ulster.LongBlade wrote:Super looking knives JohnR and Jerry![]()

As far as I know. Kind of hard to tell when there's no documentation on them.Miller Bro's wrote:Keep em comingjerryd6818 wrote:I'll quit for now with a Syracuse Knife Company EZ-Open 1935-1940![]()

I have 1937, 1948, 1953, 1958, 1963, 1968, 1973, 1978, 1983 and 1988.
Makes a real nice historical progression for Schrade tang stamps.
