All About Pocket Knives

Decent Miller Bros 3.5" pearl Tuxedo whittler, not split spring, blades are pretty full with great snap and no play, arched Miller Bros tang stamp all blades. main fault crack in pile side that someone cut a groove in. Heck of a swedge pile side main.

Wow

John

You're right about that swedge.

Here is a WWI Signal Corp EO, blades were cleaned but overall in excellent condition.

Yes excellent condition.

Going by my findings from my research regarding this pocket knife,
it is either a Miller Brothers Cutlery Company pocket knife, a Meriden
Britannia Company pocket knife, or a made by ? pocket knife.
I’m leaning towards it being a Miller Brothers pocket knife.

Recently, this fob or key ring, pattern or style of pocket knife, arrived in a group or lot of pocket knives that I bought. It now becomes my first example to be posted under this topic or thread. I did NOT buy the group or lot of pocket knives to obtain this particular pocket knife. But, it did turn out to be a keeper. It did get added to my general, pocket knife accumulation. It is a M.B.C., one blade, one tang stamp, one bail stamp, 1 5/8” closed (not including the bail), fob or key ring, pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "M.B.C. (over) U.S.A." The bail stamp says, “A & Z” The main blade does NOT have a half stop. The main blade does NOT have an opening snap. The main blade does NOT have a closing snap. Overall, this pocket knife is in GOOD condition. This pocket knife did NOT need any cleaning at all.
I just wiped it off. I took some pictures and here it is.
