All About Pocket Knives

Beautiful knives, Charlie.
I picked up this one this afternoon. #622501. I didn't notice how many scratches were on the blades until I took these pics. Need glasses

Beautiful bone on that one.

Thank you, Charlie. My Robeson collection is tiny, but growing. And they all will fit in the pocket nicely.
I looked for a Terrier knife this weekend at a Tupelo show, but no luck.

Good Terriers are hard to come by. I've been looking for them since about 1990 and I only have twenty-five. That averages out to a little better than one knife per year.

And most came off Ebay, even the mint ones.

Robeson 433, 013 and 096 pattern knives.

Charlie, I will pay you triple the original price of those knives.

I need help to identify this knife, I have found a few jack knives with the spear point blade and the pin blade that are 026 models like this one but I can't find them in a mother of pearl I'm trying to find out the value of this knife please help. Robeson shuredge (script) USA has the five digit pattern number 72226 which if i done my research and I'm correct would be 722026

Welcome to AAPK!!

Robeson's 026 pattern jack is a fairly common knife and one they continued to make after WWII and at least until 1959 or 60.

I have never seen one in pearl, but I'm not surprised they made them.

An older, pre-WWII 026 sold on Ebay last week for $101.00 and although it looks great with beautiful bone handles, I think somebody cleaned it up using abrasives, etc. Link here:

Your knife is old, pre-WWII and in original condition and has pearl handles. But, no shield.

I'm thinking $150 - $175.

Nice find.

Here's a very interesting Hobo.

Here's a nice hawkbill.

Chris, I'm with you on that Hobo. They always fascinate me.
And Joe that Hawkbill is also appealing. Don't use one very often but I just like their looks.

Thank you, Chris and doglegg.

Also charlie im almost positive it has never been sharpened over all these years

We see a good many pearl handled knives in unused condition.

They seemed to just have been put away or never left the store until gathered up by collectors and dealers in the late 60's and 70's.

Found this one two weeks ago. Tang says 633845, any comments or info appreciated.

Don't know anything BWT except that sure has some pretty bone on it. Blades look to be mostly full too. Great find. Thanks for showing.

Thanks LD, I really like the bone also, plus I don't come across many old Robensons. Thanks again for looking.

I like that 'un .... it would definitely get pocket time were it mine !

Thanks Chris for the comments. I usually carry a slim single blade if I go anywhere,but I do have some EDC on my workbench for when I’m outside.

That's a nice Robeson cattle knife.

I'd EDC that one, too.



Charlie

Thanks Charlie

Here are a couple of knives I just acquired - Hard to find much info on the black knife so any insight is appreciated -- Thanks

Hi! I know this isn't a folding knife, but it's a Robeson and seems to be pretty hard to find. I got this in a lot of vintage butcher knives and it was so clean I just stuck it straight in a drawer. Lately I've had lots of business for cooking knives and the like, I thought I'd do some research. After learning lots, I still can't find another just like this one. I believe it was made in the 1970's, but am not positive. It is marked Robeson Shuredge Frozen heat ☆ 444. I have seen frozen heat slicing knives, 456 I believe, but no other model 444 period. This thing is in great shape for its age, just some light swirling on the blade etc. The handle looks new and is rock solid, the blade is shiny and sharp! I know this think would kick butt in the kitchen for somebody, but I hate to sell with such little info. If anybody has any info on this line, it would be much appreciated! If nothing else, enjoy this beautiful Robison kitchen cutlery! I've certainly enjoyed the pics I've seen!
