You've sure got a great Post Office out there, Skip! That is one nice knife, I bet it feels great in hand.

Thanks Skip. I was thrilled to find this one! I can't find another like it. I've been researching, but so far, I must have the only one ever made! (I wish)!

All I can say is WOOOW that sure is purrty

Here's a 3-1/4" Hammer Brand (Imperial) Odd that the advertising is on the opposite side from the nail nick. Seems you'd want the user to read your business name every time he opens the knife. J.O'.

Wilson was my mother's maiden name, J.O. I wonder where that knife came from..

No Idea. I googled it and found sign companies in Wilson,NC , Dayton, OH , and Houston, TX. Any good? O'.

I'm posting them in the music forum today, J.O.

Not too recently, the following advertising, fob or key ring, pattern or style of pocket knives, were among various groups or lots of pocket knives that I have purchased over the last couple of years. They now become my latest examples to be posted under this topic or thread. Not one of these pocket knives was the actual target of, or reason for, my purchase. They are however, in good enough condition to be added to my general, pocket knife collection. They are NOT in any particular order.
Caption(s), if any, are on the BOTTOM of the corresponding picture(s).

They are as follows:

Pictures #1 to #5.
ALL are USA, one blade, one tang stamp, 2 3/8" closed (NOT including the loop or ring), tipped bolsters, advertising, fob or key ring, pattern or style of pocket knives. ALL of the main blade front tang stamps say "U.S.A." ALL of the blades have a good half stop and a good opening and closing snap. ALL of these pocket knives are in VERY GOOD condition.

Picture #6.
It is a COLONIAL, two blades, one tang stamp, 2" closed (NOT including the loop or ring), tipped bolsters, advertising, fob or key ring, pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "COLONIAL (over) PROV. U.S.A." Both blades have a good half stop and a good opening and closing snap. This pocket knife is in VERY GOOD condition.

Not too recently, this advertising pocket knife arrived in a group or lot of pocket knives that I purchased. It now becomes my latest example to be posted under this topic or thread. This particular advertising pocket knife was NOT the reason for my purchase. However, it did turn out to be a keeper and it did end up being added to my general, advertising, pocket knife accumulation. It is a U.S.A., two blades, one tang stamp, 3 1/2" closed, two springs, tipped bolsters, advertising, pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "U.S.A." The main handle side says, "Ford" (written) and has the image of a Ford automobile. The main blade has a SOFT half stop, a SOFT opening snap and NO closing snap. The secondary blade also has a SOFT half stop, a SOFT opening snap and NO closing snap. Overall, this pocket knife is in EXCELLENT condition. Absolutely NO cleaning was required. I just wiped it off. I took some pictures and here it is.
