All About Pocket Knives

Here is a picture of a couple of old Keen Kutters that I ran across and thought that I would post here:

Just GORGEOUS, msteele6.
You've taken VERY GOOD care of them!

Those are gorgeous, I agree. Love that old bone on those.

Very nice

Yep, beautiful.
Especially the bottom one.

A couple of beauties, msteele6! Especially love the bottom one! I assume it is Simmons era?

A couple dandy KKs!

Thanks guys. Danno, yes it is a Simmons era knife.

Very nice pair of knives.......what model is the top one? Thanks ~ Dan

Excellent dye and jigging on those bone scales.

The reason I would like to know what the model is of the top one is that I am an old man of 76 years and a former shop teacher who likes to restore, collect and use a few old knives that I like the style of. Not to complain, but the older I get, the more I am relegated to do more set-down work in my home shop rather than the stand-up work that I also still enjoy soooos I have modified a set-down work area in my shop with the tools needed to restore old folding knives and I am having a blast. Also I still enjoy rebuilding an occasional vintage motorcycle and am currently restoring an old Cushman Truckster that I work on, but the old knives are also what I enjoy workin on and carrying. Take care and thanks again..... oldmandan havin more fun than I can stand workin on "stuff" in my shed.........

Sorry for the delay, but I just saw your post. The knife you asked about is a pattern number K88, it is stamped on the back. Sellens book shows the pattern with a bomb shield instead of the logo shield on my knife.
