Re: Knife Boxes
Never knew that J Ward made the "Boy Of America" metal knives for Russell. I learned something today.

Re: Knife Boxes
Finding an old, original stock box with all wrapped knives inside is the pinnacle of "The Hunt".
One having a full dozen knives, as opposed to the more common "1/2 Doz" boxes, even more so.
Congratulations.

Re: Knife Boxes
Interesting but now that I searched out J Wards it was further referenced to Altas Works... but each reference suggests that they were part of J Russelll & Co in Turners Falls MA - perhaps that explains why there is no Russell tang stamps on "The Boy of America Knife"... either way as I said before and to echo Charlie - the ultimate in the "hunt"

Re: Knife Boxes
Did not know whether to post this on boxes or barlows. May do both. This is the actual Boss Frary on the front of Goins book

Re: Knife Boxes
Man Darrell you have some nice ones!!
Here is an Ulster button box with 2 Ulters on it and an older Electric Cutlery spring top with an old Electric Cutlery gunstock 4 bladed pen knife. That's what Levine calls it anyway.

Re: Knife Boxes
Darrell has some of the best Barlows that I have ever seen, including some that used to belong to me. The box of J.Ward Barlows really rocks my boat!
Way to go Darrell. Keep posting buddy as I bet you more that you have not shared yet!

Re: Knife Boxes
Well I finally feel comfortable posting this as something that I own. A Case knife box from 1920-40the tested era. More specifically June 18, 1937 as is stamped on the bottom of the box. And of course it came with two 8360sc's as shown.

Keith that Dollar Box is way cool!

Re: Knife Boxes
Hate to break it to you but now you have to find 4 more. Actually 5 more, one to display and 6 to fill the box.

Re: Knife Boxes
This old Robeson box sold on Ebay last week.
I thought it a significant box, based on the address on the underside of the lid, 12 Saratoga Avenue, Rochester, N.Y.
That's actually a house that somehow evolved into the offices of The Rochester Stamping Works. On its front porch was a small sign that read, "Robeson Cutlery Co. Second Floor".
So, I put a fifty dollar bid on it, fully realizing I probably would not get it, but hoping I might. It was Christmas, maybe no one else was box shopping.
It sold for $264.00.

That's an awsome box. I think those kind of things are great in a collection
