Maher & Grosh 3 blade. What's the pattern?

Post by 98src » Sat Mar 04, 2023 3:53 pm

I just added this Maher & Grosh 3 blade knife to my collection. What would this pattern be called? Also, who is the most likely maker?

I have a Schatt and Morgan with the same frame, a 2 blade with bone. I'd call it a "teardrop". M & G had knives made by S & M, Queen, Schrade, and Miller Bros. Hard to say which but the handle sure looks like my S&M. What's it's length and thickness at the fattest part? Good luck.It's a very cool piece. J.O'.

Probably Miller Brothers or Ulster.I've not observed a M&G that was Schatt and Morgan made.Schrade made one's started appearing in the 40's and Queen in the 60's and 70's.

Well, the usual confusion. Houston Price says S & M and doesn't include Ulster. ?? ::shrug:: Oh well. :D J.O'.
Here's the Schatt that is very similar,

They called that their Common Sense Knife lol. Here's an old catalog cut. Different shield this particular year but same knife. Not sure of the maker:

The Ulster factory collection had at least a dozen in it.

I know the authors do the best they can. Levine, Price, Goins, Ritchie and Stewart, etc. That's all we have so ........ ::shrug:: J.O'.
