Re: Greetings and Salutations from Illinois
JBinILL Hello again. What's the maker on that knife you have pictured in the the fourth picture there. I have one very similar to that stamped Battle Axe Cutlery a stamp used by the Philadelphia hardware concern of A.R. Justice.I would like to see more pictures of it if you have time.

Re: Greetings and Salutations from Illinois
Welcome to AAPK. Glad to have you aboard. What general area of the Great State of Chicago where all of our ex-governors go directly to jail and do not pass Go and we still don't have a budget, do you live in?
I have a handful of the Black Box Winchesters and was under the impression they were made by Queen. All but one are fine knives.
The one that's not so fine.

Re: Greetings and Salutations from Illinois
Most folks don't realize that Illinois is divided up into four areas. Northern Illinois, Central Illinois, Southern Illinois (or as I prefer to call it, Gods Country) and then there's what you called, Crooksville.
