Re: It's a killer knives

Ebay would be a better place if all the knife sellers were as honest as him!
I have bought from him before ebay existed, and continue to respect his honesty to this day.

Help Identify The Maker Of This Minitature Knife

I've had this knife for many years and can't find any info on who made this knife. It's 1 1/4" closed, has Ivory or Mastodon Ivory handles. The blade and integral liners - bolsters are Damascus steel. It's a lockback that locks up tightly in the open position. The blade is stamped with what I t...

Re: Identity Unknown

Looks like the knife was possibly made from what was originally a cork screw?
This is from Don Bull's "Pocket Guide to Corkscrews" page 163. Printed in 1999.
How big is the knife in the closed position?

If you look closely I think it's 1940 not 1970

Re: A strange knife for sure.

At 2 7/8" closed, the OP knife is what I call a Reverse Peanut. Some call this a Dog Leg or Serpentine Jack. Here's a pair of New York Knife Co. knives. The top knife is a Peanut, the bottom knife is a reverse peanut. As you can see the handle is the same shape for both knives, but the blades o...

Re: Can anyone help I.D. these knives?

Here are a few photos of a KA-BAR made Knife Fork & Spoon set with the Magnetic Cutlery monogram stamp. Note the fork has the KA-BAR Pat. Nov. 5th 1907 stamp on back. I cant say I've ever seen a KA-BAR tool kit, so maybe the OP knife is German or American? Along side is a Napanoch tool kit handl...

Re: Can anyone help I.D. these knives?

The top photo looks like a tool kit handle knife with the Magnetic Cutlery monogram stamp. Possibly made by Union Cutlery Co. Look inside the well at the opposite end of the blade. You might see a pin to hook the tool from the kit. Next to the pin is a block to prevent the tool from closing into the...

Re: Special Purpose Knife...Help?

Thanks guys. I think, now that I have your input it's some kind of tailors seam cutter or string cutter. The rounded point would prevent accidental fabric cutting, perfect for opening a seam. Keeping in mind this is only a guess. That's what makes knife collecting fun, finding old special purpose - ...

Special Purpose Knife...Help?

Found this knife at the Salamanca Antique Mall this past weekend in a box of cigar cutters. It's 2 1/4" closed, and stamped _ C \ D. The stamp is worn and only partially legible. I think the handle mateiral is horn, but it could be synthetic. When I first saw it, I thought it was a mini Hawkbil...
