Utica Pen Knife

Post by Luckypaul777 »

I picked up this (2 3/4") UTICA pen knife. The tang is stamped UTICA over CULTERY CO. over UTICA, N.Y.. Any guess as to it's age? Thanks.

By the tip bolsters, I'd think 1930's.

That's a nice one. Minty, with nice bone. ::tu:: I think pens are under appreciated.

I would have to go with Fran's guess of the 1930s.
I have a few old Utica's, and some of them are pretty nice.
That looks like a nice one.

Thanks for the information guys. :) I have just recently started getting some older knives; they are not bright and shiny; but have their own appeal. ::nod:: ::tu:: I like the pens with the tip bolsters; make a nice Sunday carry.
