Posted: Thu Jan 16, 2025 1:26 am
I've been rather bad about posting photos, except when I have specific questions. This time, I'm going to post photos of a few of the smaller pocket knives I have accumulated.
1. L.F. & C. in nearly new condition. Two blades with an etched primary
2. Unmarked except the diamond-with-rays logo. One blade. Handle looks to be anodized aluminum.
3. F. Herder & Son, two blades.
4. Hoffritz. Two blades and a file, essentially like new.
5. Ibberson, nice horn handle. Two blades.
6. Bleckmann Cutlery, two blades. Bone handle.
7. Alex. Fraser & Co, Two blades, worn, but those handles!
8. H. Sears Mfg. Co., and I believe they are real tortoiseshell handles (No "& Son" dates it to 1878 or before; celluloid had been around for a short time, but was it used in knife handles yet? Two blades.
9. B.B. Co., one blade and a file.
10. Unmarked but for the fox? wolf? coyote? logo. One blade and a pick.
