All About Pocket Knives

I’ll have the next mystery knife posted tonight

Keen Kutter wasn't a manufacture,;but they did own Walden Knife Co for a period of time.So who actually made it?

Here's an almost a century old barehead jack from my permanent collection for your guessing pleasure; the manufacturer is listed in Goins' so it can't be that hard to figure out .... can it?

Cattaraugus.

Looks like Catt jigging (Rogers “Indian Trail” aka worm groove) jigging, but Roger beat me to it. Several others used similar so if Cattaraugus is wrong, I’ll be back.

Ken

Not Cattaraugus, sorry guys

So if it is "Almost" a century old..... your saying 1921
and I'm saying Honk Falls

It's an HOK!





Pay no attention to the Air Force kid. Just a senior moment.

BINGO - well played Skip - tag your it!

This knife is listed in and ALL provided information is from Goins. Circa 1931 to 1955. I want the name of the manufacturer (two possible answers) AND the name on the tang stamp. Bonus question, who or what company was it made for? Clue #1, it's made in the U.S.A.

***** ONLY ONE GUESS PER POST (three parts) and ONLY ONE GUESS FOR THE MANUFACTURER *****
I WANT:
Name of the manufacturer, not manufacturers.
Name on the tang stamp.
Who or what company it was made for.

either schrade or cammilus. made for sears

I was a page behind.

It's technically a 3 part question. You only answered 2 parts.
So, I'm going to say no, wrong.
