Ok another "Guess The manufacturer"...should be easy...
From a large collection of miniature knives that I am selling...
This is a miniature 2" Easy Open jack. Celluloid handles, solid bolster.
Yes, it is marked...Guess the manufacturer.

I'm thinking Colonial though a lot of these little gems are unmarked. If I get a second guess it would end in "ial" as well.

Hmmm...Colonial would be a good guess but is not correct. Colonial did make a similar knife (see attached).

And remember I said that it SHOULD be easy...I did not say that it WOULD be easy.

Re: Ok another "Guess The manufacturer"...should be easy...
Ideal popped into my mind too, Jamie but I decided the knife was too well made for Ideal.knives-are-quiet wrote:One More.....
"Ideal"
That's why I guessed Queen but apparently Queen was so far out of the running it wasn't even worth considering.
Edit: It appears to me to be a very well made knife. Makes me wonder if it really is a Case.

Re: Ok another "Guess The manufacturer"...should be easy...
Well, ask yourselves...which manufacturers made miniature (2 inch) easy open jacks like this one, based on your observation of actual examples?
And it is s solid bolster knife, not a shell handled knife.
