Re: Ulster collectors
That is a nice knife, but I don't think that the value was high enough to worry over. I buy old and broken knives to repair, just because I like learning to do the repairs. Most of the time I could buy a new knife cheaper, but the work relaxes me. Now if your knife had been a super-rare, very expen...

As far as timeframe, if ...

Re: H.B.HARDENBURG & CO NEW YORK
Hardenburg was likely a wholesaler or maybe just a customer of Peres. That pattern was usually handled in aluminum as a commemorative. Here are three of them. Could even be pre-WWI but 1920's is a reasonable assumption. Thank you for sharing those, they are very interesting..do you know if my best ...

H.B.HARDENBURG & CO NEW YORK
All I can find on this diminutive knife is Mr. Hardenburg had a novelty co. By the same name in Brooklyn new york from 1800s to 1920..when he moved it to lindon New Jersey..so I'm assuming this knife is before the 1920s move..IT is made well , good snap ..brass liners .celluloid( French) ivory ..sma...
