All About Pocket Knives

Page #1 of 2.
It has been a busy and very productive 5 years since the rebirth of Maher & Grosh Cutlery commencing in 2016 by Roger Cunningham and Ken Mundhenk. Roger is an active member here within AAPK, his username is: peanut740.
I have been fortunate enough to obtain all the “New” Maher & Grosh knives issued from 2016 to the current 2020 issues.
You can find out the "Maher & Grosh Story" here: www.maherandgrosh.com/about and order future issues within the site once they are posted.

If you love history and want to explore more of Maher & Grosh history, I suggest you read the April 2016, "Knife Magazine" article, entitled: "The History of Maher & Grosh Cutlery Company An American Institution" by Justin Mundhenk, which happens to be Ken Mundhenk's son. A well researched and implemented full 5 page detailed story of M&G history with great color pictures of historical M&G knives.

I have posted two detailed short stories within aapk in the past concerning Maher & Grosh knives which may be of interest to M&G knife collectors. They can be found at:

Dan those are some excellent photos of some excellent knives. I have to think you are one of only a very few collectors who have managed to assemble a complete collection of all the modern Maher & Grosh offerings to date. Roger and Ken have had some superb knives produced.

Thank you for your compliments gentlemen.
Wondering what Roger and Ken have in store for us in 2021?

Dan

Great photos. We appreciate you and everyone supporting M&G, the Trappers turned out great, we were amazed at how fast they sold out. Roger and I decide what pattern but all the credit goes to Bill and his crew at GEC for their outstanding craftsmanship.

I want to thank Roger for allowing me to post here lol

Ken

Thank you for posting that wonderful collection Dan. I only have two, the Custer Hunter and the Cane Cutter in Honeybone, but they are right near the top of my collection.

Thanks Ivoryman.
Fortunately, I joined aapk in July 2016. Four months later, Ken & Roger listed their first M&G knives.
I joined aapk just in time.

Dan, thank you for posting the full line of these modern M & G knives. Very helpful as it is easy to get them 'mixed up'.
