Well I found a few more laying around that I am certain are pre 1960. I've got quite a few XX era case knives but tere is a possibility some of those could be post 1960 so I'll hold those back.

When I got the Robeson Daddy Barlow both handles were broken. The wood I used is a piece of dyed oak burl. The Peres has the original wood, some German walnut maybe?

Another batch of beautiful old knives, Joe, everyone of them! ::tu:: Interesting handles on the Crucible, horn? celluloid? In good condition, whichever.
Great job on the handle replacement on the Robeson, Olde Cutler, very nice wood! ::tu::

I think that Crucible has celluloid covers.
