Mike, The NYKCo. is outstanding. I love the old bone when it is crisp, you can
feel the sharpness, it is like it was made yesterday.

I sure wish I had a dozen of these of these…… or even one! ::drool:: ::drool::
It is from an 1884 Hibbard, Spencer & Bartlett catalog I got recently.
The red lettering on the pic is on the catalog page.
Hibbard, Spencer & Bartlett is written vertically up each page in fancy script.
Wouldn’t you like to have one of these? ::woot::

You have to keep in mind that the catalog is for dealers, so 62¢ would be the wholesale price. Retail price was probably $1.00 to $1.25.
Even paying retail I would like to buy a gross (12 dozen) of those! ::super_happy:: ::super_happy:: ::super_happy::

It would be nice to have a time machine. :mrgreen:

Great knives posted to date. Just fooling around with a new camera, so thought I revive this old thread and add a few.
Three Hibbard, Spenser and Bartletts and a Keen Kutter.
