I only have a few pen knives, the one pictured is one of my favorites. It is a George Wostenholm, IXL Sheffield, with all metal handles. The metal handles do not take to a magnet, so they might be nickle silver? It is also the only knife I own that has maintenance instructions stamped on the back of the tang on both blades. It is stamped "OIL THE JOINTS".

Nice knife Olde Cutler ::tu:: - most likely a mid-1900s knife with the "oil the joints" stamp... Thanks for sharing!

You crack me up Greg. Your as bad as I am. All I see is the jigged bone in a picture. Hard to beat the old Rogers bone.

Keith, I love those Morleys. Love the little flower. Always a well made knife.

I sometimes carry this Sears Craftsman SS ACA Edge Pen, #95201. Probably made by Schrade or Camillus?

I don't see any visible pins, so I'm guessing Schrade. I have a Large Stockman pattern marked "CRAFTSMAN" over "USA" over "95235" that has visible pins, and is attributed to Camillus.

Thanks for your info. I have 2 other Craftsman knives, a 95206 folding lockblade much like the Schrade/Uncle Henry type, and a camper/scout model 9555, which is also very Schrade like.
