Knife & Cutlery Ephemera

[doglegg]

...I worked at Sears mail order over 50 years ago.

Floyd--I worked for Sears Telecatalog when it first opened (in Provo, UT), over 30 years ago.

I was at a little satellite store in Garland, Texas my first year in Bible college. Mostly in the back room receiving orders and putting on shelves to be picked up but also sold in the paint dept. (aisle) and tires and batteries. It was a good job. They were big back then.

Queen Cutlery Co., TITUSVILLE, PA. - Pattern #51
Queen Cutlery Co., TITUSVILLE, PA. - Pattern #23

This was a (2020) Christmas gift from someone who knows me too well...
The only Case sign I've ever seen that has a depiction of a 6207 Mini Trapper on it.

Ceramic on cast iron.

CARVE YOUR OWN PATH!!!

[Stanwade]

That's a nice one, Q! I'd love to have that one...

Good find on the boxes, Skip.
Great sign, QTCut5.

Here are a couple of CATTARAUGUS CUTLERY COMPANY items that I very recently acquired.
The first item is a CATTARAUGUS DUPLEX RAZOR HONE.
The stone measures 2" X 5 1/2" X 1/2"
The top of the box is pretty worn, but CATTARAUGUS is still visible, barely.
This will display nicely.
The second item is in my next post.

Here's the second item.
It's a CATTARAUGUS CUTLERY COMPANY pocket knife store display.
I believe the spring was used to hold the pocket knife that was on display, in place.
In this case, it would've been a, according to the label, pattern #23222 pocket knife.
It's in very good condition and it will display nicely.
It measures 2 3/4" X 4 5/8" X 2 3/4."

You sure find some cool stuff, SKIP Thanks for sharing.

[New_Windsor_NY]

You.....

Thank you.
That's a FANTASTIC looking CASE XX sign that you received.

[New_Windsor_NY]

As of today, this item has joined my cutlery ephemera collection.
A CASE TESTED XX box.
It measures 3 1/4" X 9 1/2" X 1."

[New_Windsor_NY]

Today I add this catalog to my general cutlery ephemera collection.
It is the "NAPANOCH KNIFE BOOK" by Rhett C. Stidham. It's from the
early 1970's(?) and it's 28 pages of everything NAPANOCH. I'm not sure
if it's an original or if it's a reprint, but then again, I don't care.

[New_Windsor_NY]

pocket knife and box here also.
