All About Pocket Knives

Dimitri - What's the closed length on that Ulster Dog Leg Jack? It looks very much like my #53 Camillus Dog Leg Jack (3" closed). I've only seen the two 53's I have and pictures of one more. It has a long line but is not in any of the catalogs I have access to. The handle material would seem to make it late 1950's - very early 1960's. That's the only gap in the catalogs I have access to that fits the knives I have.

That is a nice Woodhead too Bill and forgot to mention it as I was so focused on the Bud Brand

Not sure I showed this Woodhead combo here on this thread - a Woodhead Bowie along with a swell-center pen... Now if I could find a Barnes folder to go with my dagger - I saw some Barnes folders recently but I didn't think they were in great condition especially coupled to the price being asked... patience is a virtue in collecting

Early schrade walden 836 whittler, very well made knife.

Dimitri said he was waiting for me to post my Terrier knives in this thread.

For those that might not be aware, Terrier Cutlery Company knives were made, as a premium brand I think, by The Robeson Cutlery Company beginning in 1910 and they stopped producing them in 1916, so any Terrier marked knife is now about one-hundred-two to one-hundred-eight years old.

Here are the ones I have.

Fabulous knives Charlie! Just don't get much better than that.

Next lot.

Super rare knives, thanks for posting them Charlie!

I think the only Terrier marked knives I own are a couple of parts knives

A few more.

Beautiful knives Charlie!! Absolutely stunning!!

Here are some Terrier knives that sold on Ebay, but not to me. Hopefully, none of them belong to anyone here.

Thanks Dimitri, Dan and Bill ... I think to find a pocket knife from the old Sheffield companies which made Bowies/Daggers on a predominate basis - On the other hand I have an early LF&C Hunter but in this case it was easier to find a pocket knife to go along with it

Dimitri - Nice knives and beautiful bone on the Ulster and Challenge ... That Empire peanut jack looks familiar - I have the same exact Empire with same celluloid as seen below ... I thought it was starting to outgas based on the few bronze spots under the celluloid covers when I found it 3 years ago but it has never progressed any further... of course it has its own special storage area and lives by itself
Paul - That is a sweet looking Schrade whittler ...

Charlie - Your collection of Terrier knives certainly is stunning ... One can see why, as you note, they were considered a premium brand of Robeson... and there is just something about that worm groove bone I always find so appealing.. Thanks for sharing them!!

Charlie, those terrier knives are outstanding.

Very nice Lee

Definitely the double to my knife, my cell is very stable in fact I don't recall ever seeing an old Empire knife with celluloid handles outgass.

Beautiful beautiful knives Charlie, really enjoyed looking at them
Very nice collection.

Very nice Lee!!!

A fine collection you have Charlie. I really like that stockman, it's kind of different.

Thanks everyone.

They are hard to find and I've missed some very nice ones on Ebay. That jumbo sleeveboard whittler is the one I regret most.

Charlie

A few more
J Nowill doesn't have England on the tang so it should be before 1960,still in business I believe, Finzers was in business late 1800 till early 1900s. Warranted Quality no info but it was inexpensive and I like the handles, I'm sure before 1960.

Some great oldies there Bill!

A very nice group of knives, Bill.

Looking good Bill, really like that stainless steel Challenge

Thanks Joe, Greg and Dimitri.

Here's a few tool kit knife sets I have.......
