All About Pocket Knives

Came across this apparent salesman sample roll of ivoroid handled melon testers today in a local antiques shop.

Each knife is marked, KUTMASTER / STAINLESS.

Each knife has a handle crack at the hinge pin on one side or the other or both.

Asking price was $150.00. That’s a little over eight dollars per knife.

I did not buy them. I have enough stuff to sell as it is.

Looks like someone put together a nice collection. Utica Kutmaster has been a producer of melon tester advertising knives for a long time, and still is. Here’s a relatively recent example that I received in a seed shipment.

steel frame on that recent knife? Looks like it would be quite useful. I like it.
