I guess I'm challenged that way too Harold. I have a hard time with searching . I usually just end up googling .

A couple more for lookers sake. 4 1/2" H Boker EJ

Is that unusual to have that pearl's pattern number in such a position?
Great knife.

Excellent work guys.

Great looking etches fellas. I particularly like the big faded Keen Kutter Dan.

Except for the 1st which is a 4' farmers whittler all are (guess what) farmers jacks.

Bingo. If you look real close in the right light, you can see a little of "Tree Brand " etch. I've liked this knife a long time.

Congrats Dan , now that's what an old "real" unused knife looks like. Any old knife that looks like it just came from a showcase had better done so , or I wonder.

I-man I really like the GEC stamp on that one.

Not American . but has close relatives.

It seems that happens to me every time I have a little extra money in some form or fashion. How much you want for it, I know it's inexpensive.

Fine knives I-man.

What time frame do you put that one?
Length?

Thanks for the Wester history. I would say this example is early 1900.

If you show them one at a time Georgiy , you get more air time. This one is old and exquisite. A Wester Bros out of their NY showcase. Marked with anchor,star, and arrow and Germany. I love the bone , even the sun bleached side. The backspring is tapered , as did some early knives of this pattern. ...
