Re: Montgomery Wards & Sears, Roebuck & Co. Knives
"Curating" today and rediscovered this old WARDS, 4-blade Cattle knife. I think it was made by UTICA. Has that fullered punch and doubled brass liners. Carried it all day, really felt like an old time, solid piece. As the old saying goes, "They don't make 'em........." J.O'.

That’s a real nice one JO.

I’ll play… here’s one I found in my Dad’s things after he passed away last year at age 91. This was his EDC.
2.75” closed length
Clip, coping and pen blades
I keep it sharp and use it daily… it’s on my desk in my shop.

Re: Montgomery Wards & Sears, Roebuck & Co. Knives
I don't know who made these mini stockman knives for the Sears Craftsman brand
Schrade maybe?

Re: Montgomery Wards & Sears, Roebuck & Co. Knives
Just wondering if any of you Craftsman aficionados would have seen one of these lockblades or could identify who made it. It is 5" OAL, possibly walnut handled, brass liners. No numbers stamped on it. Kind of reminds me of Chicago Cutlery and the way they made wooden handled knives.

Re: Montgomery Wards & Sears, Roebuck & Co. Knives
Imperial. I have a dead ringer for it in my toolbox, as the lock really doesn't work, but it is still tight enough to function as a friction folder. Etched on the blade is "Imperial Pro Hunter"OLDE CUTLER wrote: ↑Sun Jul 30, 2023 4:09 pm Just wondering if any of you Craftsman aficionados would have seen one of these lockblades or could identify who made it.

Re: Montgomery Wards & Sears, Roebuck & Co. Knives
Yes it is, I think Schrade made it based on the very Schrade like handle material. Solid too, the blade is .160" thick for HD use. I found a nylon sheath that fits the 7 inch Bowie blade.edge213 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 4:58 pmThe fixed blade sure is a good looking knife.OLDE CUTLER wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 4:42 pm These are 3 of my recent Craftsman acquisitions.

That Craftsman 7 inch Bowie I pictured above has found a home clipped onto the side of my tactical pack within easy reach.
