Here are a couple of Robeson Demonstrators I have acquired recently. The one on top is a 3 & 3/8 inch pen knife or senator if you like and the other is a 3 inch split back whittler pattern.

Nice, Lloyd, can't pick a favorite!

Nice one's

Very nice, Lloyd.

I have a Eureka Jack Demonstrator and a pearl handled penknife.

Just received this Terrier. 3 blades half stop and strong snap. Main blade no stop or snap and main blade won’t close. Mushy when I press down on it. Ideas to fix main blade? Or just deal with it. Thanks.

I fished this Robeson Shuredge peanut out of the 'Bay recently, and patched the mark-side bone handle. It has been well used, but not used up.

Nice old knife.

Lots of use left in that one.
Nice knife.

Nice Terrier. I’ve not seen one like that.

Oil it up and try to clean out from beneath that blade that won’t close. Hope that helps.

If the tang is worn down, not much to do, but have someone build it back up.

Or, just display it the way is.

That Robeson is nice. Saber-cut clip blade.

I had one like that at one time.

Picked up this stockman yesterday , pattern # 632883 .
Knife measures a little over 3 5/8” closed .
Looks like an early made knife ? all the blades are stamped and the secondary blades are stamped in the arc .
Beautiful Robeson bone .

Thanks for looking

What a good looking knife that is, Mike.

The hawkbill is pre-1900. Nice.

That stockman is nice.

A Queen made Robeson.

Here are 3 Robeson Jacks I've acquired over the last few months.

A nice Shuredge.

Picked up this well loved 922295. Badge measures 1.8mmx0.5mm. Any insight on where I could get a badge for this knife? Also curious if there's more info to sharpen the date of manufacturing?

This is my most recent Robeson pickup. It’s a desk knife in the original box with stunning pearl handles. The company logo etched on the letter opener blade was a mahogany mill in Louisville, KY in the early 1900’s. Cool piece in my opinion

That is a very cool piece.

Welcome here, Dilbery91.

That is a cool one!

Just gave this recent pickup a Mother's and Ren wax treatment, I really like a small knife w/tipped bolsters and some classic bone scales.

Nice one, Ike.
A new little pal for sure.

Nice knife Ike ! As MB stated already “ nice bone “ .
Still toting the 2 blade Robeson you sent this way a while back. They made a great pocket knife. Thanks for sending this one up north . We don’t see many Robeson knives up here. Have a great Sunday my friend
