Re: Ulster Collecting
I wonder how many knives left the factory with that misspelling before they corrected the stamp?
Kind of like the upside down airplane US postage stamp.
Does the stamp increase, decrease or not effect the value?

Re: Ulster Collecting
Nice Barlow Ozzie (and very nice Stockman too); here are a few of my Ulster's (only own a few). The Barlow came on the 14th, the others I've had awhile. OH

Re: Ulster Collecting
Galvanic, your ebony handled jack is a classic! I've picked a few more up since I last posted, both NOS Delrin handled knives; a sawcut BSA and a Prince Albert Ulster. OH

Re: Ulster Collecting
I noticed that. Can't say I've ever encountered that tang stamp. Very interesting item IMO.

Re: Ulster Collecting
Looks like it might have been an older stamped blade,maybe in transition to the newer Ulster stamp. A very nice example Grant.
Ulster made some of the nicest farmer jacks I have,I respect their quality,especially the older ones.

Re: Ulster Collecting
here is one I just got
wonder if the Dwight Divine helps date it
I read the history, from Ellenville co=op to Ulster to Divine family on to Baer brothers and Imperial Schrade
I got some Kingston tang stamped , low end knives I will post somewhere, think there is a connection/transition with Ulster

Re: Ulster Collecting
I see Thawk has one of these
did not know it was made by Ulster till I saw some with Ulster tang stamp and diff handle colors/ materials
it is not cell, is it pyrex? what do you call this pattern? looks like waterfall or finger print with a eye
doing research I saw that this Whittler has more blade loss than I noticed at first, I was looking at HSB's and did not know who made it

Re: Ulster Collecting
Did you mean Pyroxylin? (The only Pyrex I know was glass cookware).
Pyroxylin was a name Camillus used for celluloid.
That handle looks like some of the celluloid I have seen on some NYK knives.
It sure is pretty stuff. It makes beautiful handles. Incidentally, that celluloid seems pretty stable. I have not seen that type of celluloid off gas, not that it cannot; it just seems to be one of the more stable forms of celluloid.
