All About Pocket Knives

Did Lackawana ever produce anything other than clear celluloid handled picture knives?
Anybody have an old catalog?
Just wondering........

I have a pearl or bone handle knife from Lackawanna, somewhere.

Thanks MB.

Can you post a picture? I would love to see it!

Here's one from Lackawanna Cutlery, Nickleson PA for sale on Ebay. It has a clear tang stamp.

Philco found the stamp in his library LACKAWANA CUTLERY Co.

Ive not recieved it yet to confirm...
Possibly its an LFC also..

I have never seen an LFC knife that looked even remotely like that one.

Looks to me like a Robeson made knife.

I have a vague memory of a contract brand made by Robeson may be "FC Co"....

two lackawannas made in nicholson pa. 8 miles from where i live, made with the celluloid but not showing any gassing. too bad the pictures of the girls are too faded to make them out clearly.

Here's a LF&C on ebay now.

I agree the subject knife has a Robesonesque appearance.

If the tang stamp turns out to be "F. C. CO.", it stands for Fulton Cutlery Co.

Every one I've ever seen was a Robeson knife with the original stamp ground off and the Fulton stamp applied.

Usually, there is a portion of the Robeson stamp remaining.
