Joe, yours are fantastic, especially the eight blade one. Amazing piece of cutlery. ::tu::

Here is a nice little Cattaraugus Pearl. I'm not sure what to call this pattern.
The spring is covered with pearl even to the round ends of the knife. Unique!

I was nosing around the site in my spare time and found this thread, which I am going to shamelessly resurrect with a few photos of my own. Some of you know I have an abundance of pearl knives, many of them old beaters which I have more for the historical interest than anything else. But some of them are quite nice, with some nice fire in the handles, which I have attempted to capture with a camera. I'm sure it's not the best, but it's what I have done, and I hope someone likes them! Here are a few whose provenance I do not know, as well as a Böntgen & Sabin.

in this lot I have:

an Irving & Co.
an Ibberson
a JJ Mechi
a Miller Bros.
a Lütters
a Merscheid
a Northfield
another Miller with what appears to be a closed back. The springs on this are not functional, but I don't think I want to try to take it apart to see why, because I'm afraid of doing more damage,
