OK I thought I would start an new one with Jacks. The first group are from the left. Utica etched with the older UTK mark on the back tang, W.H. Sample Albany, Electric Cutlery New Jersey, my latest pick up Nagle Re-Blade, Sperry & Alexander twice, Carrier Cutlery Elmira it's a salesman's sample.
Mike, that Nagle knife, in the first picture of this thread, has a long pull on both sides of the blade. Incredible that it help up. Must be very thin in the nick?

A few more. A Robeson, Catt, Armstrong, Brown shoe and an Ulster
I guess they are all considered jacks. The Armstrong is probably considered a boys knife.

Thanks for getting this thread back up again, some really great knives have been posted
Can't believe I started it 12 years ago!
Here is a nice IXL jack that I just picked up. A lot of original finish on the blades.

Looks like an English Jack to me. Just curious why you excluded English Jacks when you started the thread?????????

Jerry, when I started the thread way back when I had also started one for English Jacks, not knives from England but large 4-4/12" closed English Jacks and so I wanted to start one that showed smaller jacks not "English" it did not refer to knives made in England. Below is the thread.

I knew what you meant (or at least I thought I did). I never connected English Jacks with the country. When someone said English Jack, in my head I pictured the 4½" Jack knives.
