All About Pocket Knives

Nice shearer!

Three pruners,the pocket worn one has funny stamp like Dales early on in this thread.

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?

I expect it depends on if you are buying or selling. Seriously,I would expect at least a minimal increase because of rarity.

None too shabby that!

Here's two Ulsters I've added in the last few weeks

98G Stockman & Barlow

Keith

nice Barlow

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

Nice ones guys.

Ozzie you always have some mint beauties.

Here is my latest Ulster, its 3 3/8" closed and is etched RAZOR STEEL with the picture of a stag in between the words. Never seen one like this before!

Another very nice old knife. Mike,I'm really getting to enjoy the old ebony knives....

Love old Ebony Jacks

That one is a beaut!!!!!!!!!!!!

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

Here's a Ulster hawkbill I received the other day.
Grant

Awesome knife Shearer.

Thanks philco.
It seems to have a different tang stamp.It has Ulster Knife USA, where the later stamp is Ulster USA.?

Grant

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

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.

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

WWI(?) U.S. Signal Corps. Not too bad a shape for a 100-year old knife

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

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.
