All About Pocket Knives

A nice Ivory covered sleeveboard whittler. 4" closed.

Very nice. Love the treble clef mark.

Now we're talkin'! I guess I just like really old Ivory knives and big whittlers. You certainly got some fine cutlery today. I ended up with two, will probably show 'em tomorrow. Yeah, Ed (eveled) came to the last show which was his first NCCA show. He instantly got a life membership and he and his son are enjoying the heck out of our shows. Great to have an enthusiastic new member!!

Thank you, Froe, a pretty unique etch on the spear.
I am not familiar with musical embellishments but I am pleased that this etch is on this blade.

Thank you, Gene, would love to see your two knives.
Always a pleasure to see you and your knives.
I'm glad Ed and his son are involved.

Very nice Joe, nothing to not like about that one Great find!!

Thank you, Bill.

Wow!! Awesome knife Joe!!

Really cool! As a musician, I'm particularly jealous! Haigh doesn't show up in either Goins or Levine; nor do I see anything in a quick internet search. So now I'm intrigued, and will have to keep an eye out for this mark. Nice find!

Thank you, woodwalker.

Thank you Brent.
I didn't find anything either. I have a book of London cutlers. No Haigh in there.
Checked my Tweedale Directory of Sheffield Cutlers and I did find one Haigh entered in there.
At least I know the name exists, just not in Liverpool so far.
I hope you find one with the clef.

Very nice Joe!

Impressive piece of cutlery! Great purchase.

Thank you Wayne and Ike.

I suspect that Haigh was the retailer rather than the maker. I would bet that it’s a Sheffield made knife ordered by Haigh and had the retailer stamped . I have come across a number of retailers that had their names stamped on the knives, sometimes they were gift knives

That could be true, Gerry.
It certainly does occur here in the U.S.A.
