Red Bones

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Can someone tell me what the term "loomfixer" derived from? Thanks all.

I've been told you needed those blades to look after a loom that was weaving cotton on a production basis. Someone from the "Cotton" states probably knows the details. . . . .
