All About Pocket Knives

Thanks Skip!! I Love it.. always wanted one but didn't want to pay an arm and a leg for one.. I got lucky on this one.. really reasonable price.. I'm now certain (99.9%) it is authentic..

Edit--it's a reproduction... Oh well, I didn't pay much for it and I still like it... lesson learned tho

Awesome lock and keys, Ryan!

Thanks John!

After further research I now know that it is a reproduction... Oh well, I still like it and I didn't pay much for it... Lesson learned though..a good link below that convinced me it's a fake

Ryan,

I'll take and post some lock pictures from the reference book I have on Keen Kutter goods when I get home, for comparison.

John

Thanks John.. I looked at all my books and on the internet but didn't look close enough LOL the keys are too big and the keyhole bushing on the back isn't recessed with the Santa Fe letters like a real one
..

Here you go, from Jerry & Elaine Heuring's book, Collector's Guide to Keen Kutter, 2000. Hope this helps for future reference.

Thanks John!!

Picked up this K1787 spey blade metal handle knife. Good condition with etch, tang stamp is unusual, 2 K's, not sure if knife is real or it's a reproduction.

Very nice Roger, is that one Camillus made, most seem to be Schrade but that looks Camillus to me.

Knife appears to be a Walden (Winchester?) made KK, nice one

Guys,I'm not sure of the manufacturer. Bone is light to be Walden from my experience, but not positive.

I think you are right, the bone plus the shield.

Howdy folks, well I'd been looking a while now for a nice Keen Kutter, just purchased this peanut last week. Would love to find out if possible about what year the 915 was made, or any other info from our experts here....
Hope y'all are doing well and once again thanks in advance for your help.

Posted this one on another thread but figured it belonged here as well. Keen Kutter sleeveboard jack unsharpened;at least it appears to be.Nine bucks at a local estate sale.
