Cattaraugus 32409 Whittler Pocket Knife

The Cattaraugus Cutlery Company was started by John Champlin and his son Tint in 1882. It was first incorporated under the name J.B.F. Champlin and Son as a wholesale distribution company based in Little Valley, New York. The business proved to be a successful endeavor, and it soon branched into a knife production company named Cattaraugus.

Cattaraugus 32409 Whittler Pocket Knife

Post by New_Windsor_NY »

Today I add this pocket knife to my general, "it looked good, I wanted it, I got it" pocket knife collection. It's a Cattaraugus 32409, 3 blade, 3 3/8" closed, whittler pocket knife. I gave it a very light cleaning, took some pictures and here it is.

Thank you Ken. 🍻
It's usually the handles/scales that I notice first.

Congratulations Skip, that Catt is a great catch! And, IMHO, you did just the right amount of cleaning. Thanks for posting it! ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu::

That’s a great one all the way around. And I agree on the cleaning. Just right.
