Re: It's In The Mail
This morning I purchased this Imperial "deer head" pocket knife ( the first 7 pictures are the seller's). The blades "should" clean up nicely, hopefully. I bought it as a companion knife for my Kingston "deer head" pocket knife (last 2 pictures).

Re: It's In The Mail
I just bought this one a few minutes ago. It appears to be an Ulster 63. It has 3 blades and a swelled center. The pattern #, if there is one, is not with the main tang stamp. So hopefully, it's the earlier variation with the pattern # on the other side. The pictures are the seller's. The last picture is what I'm hoping for. I will clean up the knife and repost MY pictures when I get it.

Re: It's In The Mail
Skip, that one is a steal. I put in a minimum bid on it simply on price and condition. I'm glad you got it. A really great knife especially for the price.

The knife looks like it has pins through the bolsters.I would say made before 1960.They started to using the Swindon System in 1960.New_Windsor_NY wrote:I just bought this one a few minutes ago.

Re: It's In The Mail
Paid for it on Friday but ecop! doesn't ship on weekends so I'll just have to wait until probably next Thursday or so to get it in hand. It's a Winchester with USA stamped on the tang but it sure looks Chinese to me (and the price supports that). I don't recall seeing any Winchester mini-trappers but my memory is getting so bad........... Maybe ~Q~ knows more about it.
Edit: Just found it on Discount Cutlery and in their description they say "Made in China".

Re: It's In The Mail
Good scores Jerry and Skip!
Re: It's In The Mail
All ~Q~ knows about Winchester knives is that I've never seen a (new) made in USA Winchester knife with a retail price of $10.98! The price and the tang stamp, as you and Shearer respectively observed, suggest a Pacific Rim manufacturer.jerryd6818 wrote:It's a Winchester with USA stamped on the tang but it sure looks Chinese to me (and the price supports that). I don't recall seeing any Winchester mini-trappers but my memory is getting so bad........... Maybe ~Q~ knows more about it.
Edit: Just found it on Discount Cutlery and in their description they say "Made in China".
Winchester did make at least two mini trappers (that I know of): the .22 Hornet (model #29004 1/2) for the cartridge series; and a "small" (3 3/8") Delrin handled mini trapper (model #29009)--both of which I believe were actually made by Queen: And also model 2904 1/2 which, at 3 7/8", could be considered either a "big" mini trapper or a "medium" trapper (it's 3/8" smaller than a traditional, full-size 4 1/4" trapper, and 3/8" larger than a traditional 3.5" mini trapper--so take your pick)...which I also believe was made by Queen: This is probably a question for another forum, but as long as we're on the subject...
Are any Winchester knives currently being manufactured in the USA?

Re: It's In The Mail
Some are diffidently made in China,these look to have come off the same line only difference is the names.

Re: It's In The Mail
Well after missing out on a Geo Schrade wire handle jack AND a Craftsman 9494 knife yesterday (wi-fi down), I bounced back today with another Ulster 63 knife. Unlike the first Ulster 63 that I bought, this one HAS the shield. It isn't the earlier version as the pattern # is on the main tang stamp, not on the opposite side. When I get it, I'll give it a cleaning and repost MY pictures in the proper location. These pictures are the seller's.

Re: It's In The Mail
I really like that one! I saw them back when I was first getting into Imperials, but have never bought one of those deer handled ones yet. I have lost count at how many times I've had to do that. And out of probably 2 dozen plus purchases of those lots, I can name only 2 or 3 in which I actually found the other knives in it that the knife I bought it specifically for came with either good for my collection, or at least a decent user. At least those little Imperials are still good knives. I've got one I've been meaning to make a bail for (it's broke off) and put on my keychain.New_Windsor_NY wrote:Just bought this lot of 4 knives.

Re: It's In The Mail
I'm not 100% sure that it is an Imperial. The other one I have is a Kingston. Once I clean those tangs, I'll know for sure.cody6268 wrote:I really like that one!

Re: It's In The Mail
Good stuff Skip
Happy you are picking up a few Imperials! Besides anything Queen related, Imperials are my next love. Those 4 look really good! I keep on see those deer knives on ebay. Need to pick up myself one or two...
I didn't know you liked Imperials too Cody. They are cheap, plentiful, and a lot of fun! Perfect for a cash strapped, 20 something, year old.
Please keep posting your examples guys! I started a thread "100,000 A Day" to recognize them. I'll bump it back up to the top, right away.

Re: It's In The Mail
I obtained this Camillus 1047 Scout Knife a couple of hours ago. It has the "federal" style shield and it appears that the handles are in much better condition than the last 1047 I bought. I'll clean it when I get it and I'll repost MY pictures in the proper location(s).

Re: It's In The Mail
Bought this Camillus 1047 Scout knife a couple of hours ago. Looks like the third time IS the charm. Looks to be the best handles on a 1047, with this style of shield, that I've bought so far. Doesn't seem to be any shrinkage on either handle. No gap between the handles and bolsters. No cracks in the handles or pieces of the handles missing. The blades look decent also. I will give it a light cleaning when I receive it and repost MY pictures in the proper location. These pictures are the seller's.
