Parker Eagle Brand liner lock the box say its model "EAGLE BRAND NO. TF-2946"
I really wish there was a list of all the Parker Model's showing the Model # and Photo.
I have many Parker's with the box, But I don't really know if its the correct box and model #

.

Gotta love MK I copycats.
Had one of these as a kid too. Wish I still had it.
It was beat to death but SHARP. Traded it for a set of Pioneer 6x9s for my Z-28.
Being a teenager in the 80s.

Love those too coffin handle knives!!!
If you ever want to let go of them, let me know.

This Parker Imai K633 was passed down to me when I was very young and unfortunately I am unable to ask the person who passed it down questions about this knife.
I have no knowledge about the knife company or style and would like general or valuable information about the knife.
Through Google I've seen it referred to as a "survival knife", "special ops knife", "1980's", "Parker Bros. knife", and old Ebay auctions valued it at $200.
In my opinion, it's is in "fair" shape at best but I could be wrong. Still has original sharpener but the compass on the bottom has been busted out.
Thanks for starting this blog and providing any information about the knife!

I'll tell you what.
Mr Parker sure did leave his mark on this earth.
There are so many variations of patterns, countries, partners, and just a general dedication to knives that you rarely ever see.
Some people talk trash about Mr. parkers "style" but you have to give it to the man for bringing SO many different knives to the masses.

I have quite a few Parkers but not all photographed yet so I'll post the pictures that I do have.
There is an Eagle eye, Smokey mountain Knife works, a Wildcat, and a Mustang I believe. Sorry for the poor images but I am working on that.

Not ignoring you. Just don't have any information for you. Send a PM to Knife7knut since he has one. (Ray has one of everything )

About low average. Not a gas station counter piece of junk but then not great quality.

Here's a nice thick stag Parker Brothers K128 Lock Back with blank banner eagle blade etch (which just happens to be for sale in case anyone's interested)

My only Parker

This may be my only Parker; certainly the only one I have in a photo.

antique mall find. hope my description is correct. Parker Cut. Co. Surgical Steel Japan Large Fat Stag Lockback Knife K 128
4 5/8" closed. single blade. blade etched, blade etched Eagle Brand Cutlery.

Parker-Edwards smooth white bone mini trapper...Made in USA 1986.

Couple of Lock Back Whittlers

Nothing extraordinary, just a handy little flying falcon. It's carried a lot and used some. Found it at a gun show in a bucket full of knives the dealer was selling @ 2 for a buck.

Couple of lock backs and a baby Barlow.

...and a couple more little Parker Lock Backs. I will point out that the Parker Beaver Tail is of noticeably higher quality than the Parker-Frost Husky. Not too surprising, really...a lot of folks have mentioned that, generally, the Parker-Frost era knives just don't have the same quality construction as other Parker collaborations. They look good enough, but, unfortunately, very often something was lost in the execution. Nothing wrong with it aesthetically, however.

I've always been a fan of the USA Parker pen knife - I like the design and slimness better than an Eisenhauer. The little damascus razors are nice little knives as well. I know Parkers get a bad rap, but I have nothing bad to say about the USA Parkers I have ...

I just love these little Parker Lock Backs; they're cuter'n a bug's ear!

Picked up this nice Parker-Edwards over the weekend at the Shriners Gun and Knife Show in Chattanooga, TN. It is a close likeness of the Case 521500 that was produced when Jim Parker was the owner of Case. Very possibly made at the same factory in Jacksonville, Alabama.

The bone & stag used on Parker knives is often kind of weird, IMO; but, you have some very attractive bone on your Parker-Edwards razor trapper, DR_M. Good looking knife.

Here's a fat stag "Punkin' Seed" lock back with some of the better stag I've seen on this brand.
~Q~

Found this at a deal last year.

Looked good in the pictures til it got home. Somebody did a halfstep (I'm keeping it clean, y'all know I mean halfa$$) attempting at redoing the handle. Shot it nice and black but didn't do anything about the chipped and missing original coating.

Was gonna go original, but I've seen plenty of those.

Thanks ~Q~, that is some super fat stag on your "Punkin' Seed" lock back. Very nice.

Hello. This is a set of Parker bicentennial doctors knives with the statue of liberty and the liberty bell - one in gold and sterling silver over pewter, and one in sterling silver. Both signed Shaw-Leibowitz.

I haven't had time to post so I'm trying to catch up today.
Here are a few more Parker's I've added in the last 6 months

The first photo is a Make Your Own Knife Kit Parker Sold - You don't see many still in the box
.

my only 2 Parkers. these are quite well made I must say. the trapper holds a special place in my never-PC heart.

This is a 6" closed knife with 5" large Blade
I have no idea why it is called "New Orleans" and what the figures at the bolster mean?
