All About Pocket Knives

I don`t know why the master Blade on the Shapleigh Scout/Camp Knife has that cutout. It looks factory, but what purpose was it for? I`m sure someone will know why.

Here is a small 3 & 1/8 inch Shapleigh DE pen knife I have with a more linear celuloid pattern.

Beautiful!

Mailman brought me this Shapleigh Hardware Swell End Barehead Jack today. Both Blades stamped but no pattern number. I think it was made by Schrade Cut Co. based on the jigged bone. What you think?

Lovely

WOW!
What a good looking knife. Love that big no nonsense spear.

Thanks Desert Golfer.

A schrade cut era shapleigh that is pretty decent other than the main blade being tipped. I wish I could go down to the hardware store today and be able to buy a knife like this.

Good looking folder, Paul.
Great addition to the thread.

Thank you.

Mailman brought me this 3 1/2" Shapleigh Knife Friday. I like the bolsters. Maybe made by Schrade.

Nice knife, Desert Golfer. Those little Congress knives with the rat tail bolsters are gems.

Good looking knife and great pictures.

Thank You for the great reply FRJ. Pictures are always a challenge for me but I may be getting better.

Nice bone handle knives Paul and DG

What beautiful knives those are.
Two spring pins and two fine little cover pins, apparently having the pivot spring pin hole bored large enough so as not to crack the bone.
There has been plenty of time to crack the bone at the spring pin and the bone has gone undamaged. Lovely!
Thanks for the fine contribution to the thread, John.

A couple of nice ones you have there JohnR!!

Wow are those two gorgeous. Love the blades and the bone.

Thank you all for the nice comments.

Showing off mine love the Peach Seed Jigging

Another beautiful addition to the thread.
Thank you, kennedy knives.

Mr. Kennedy- Here is my Knife thats the same as yours except that mine is a 2880 Winchester. Both of our knives were contract knives made by Schrade Cut Co. I wonder if Schrade made this model for any other Companies besides Winchester and Shapleigh?

Two remarkable knives and a nice connection, Desert Golfer.
