Has anyone made a list of Boker models that Valley Forge made once Boker bought them?
I just picked up this VF and those bolsters look very European to me?
Anyone know the model and /or pattern number?

Heres a couple better pics. 3.25" Single back spring. Both blades stamped. Im still leaning toward it being a Boker model because of European looking bolsters. I thinking likely made in 20s or 30s. I'll definitely be ripping those off gassing celluloid scales off.

Heres VF whittler in the collection. Dont know if I really trust it with that secondary pin looking tampered with? But I really like the pattern and the bone is nice.

Remington used bolsters just like that on some of their knives

Doesn't look like the bolsters have been buffed, possibly repinned at some point.

Thank you for the info. I'm going to try and find a Remington with those bolsters now.

Your probably right about that whittler being repinned as one spring is "soft". Its amazing that the main blade still has good snap considering only 1 spring is good. I know I've seen whittlers that had one spring eat away the pivot of the main blade, luckily I dont think that the case here.
