Are you showing the tang stamp on the main blade?

I believe 1901 to 1936 would be the wide range but could be 1901 to 1910. Need to see more, plus the master blade tang stamp. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong on that.

Probably 1875-1900 if the other blade has Norfolk #6. Rodgers as well, not Rogers.

Tom, wouldn't 1837 to 1900 have been "Cutlers to Her Majesty" as Queen Victoria reigned for those years?

Hmmmmmm, just read Goins' Joseph Rodgers and I believe he was a little confused in that area. His word, like Levine's is not written in stone and his fine book does have errors in it as does Levine's. Cutlers to His Majesty in a modern font machine made stamp can be anywhere from 1901-1948, the reigns of Edward and two Georges.
