Unmarked horseman's knife
Posted: Thu Oct 06, 2011 10:41 pm
Hi
I am a pretty novas knife collector and only a have a few in my collection, so any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I stumbled a pone a old horseman’s pocket knife the other day, and am having a hard time identifying the maker, I know it is early to mid 1800’s because it has a farrier’s blade on it, it also has all the other tools, hoof pick, two knife blades, corkscrew, awl, leather punch, tweezers (missing), small metal tooth pick, one tool is broken off, I think it was a button hook, it was smaller than the knife blade and the handle is wood.
Any help with the maker would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
