Nice groups of old knives Joe, Keith and Olde Cutler
... Some awesome bone and other handle covers from all - but Joe that Robeson with striped handles is something unique
- Is that MOP with black celluloid stripes??

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
Nothing was said about 'merican made so here are a couple of BAK's (British Army Knives). Both from 1943, I guess they are acceptable.
This is a Bontgen & Sabin from Germany with French Ivory covers that was sent to me some time ago by Dragunski. Thanks George. This Camillus EZ-Open with a four line stamp has some beautiful bone handles. Unfortunately there's a chip out of the mark side.
I like this Camillus 4-line Scout. Possibly from the 1930s.
This Camillus short line #14 with bone handles is aces. I feel fortunate to have it.

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
Thank you for the comments Lee, OLDE CUTLER and Dimitri.
Lee, I think the covers are Mother of Pearl and celluloid.
Dimitri, that is a big knife at 4 1/2".
Jerry and Dimitri ...... great show.
