new york knife co
Re: new york knife co
What a great old piece there Ike .
It’s in what looks like excellent condition ! And a unusual pattern as you mentioned.
The Cutler that put that together sure had the touch . The work on those handles and the way he set the shield is truly craftsmanship at its best .
What a viewing pleasure ,bet it feels great in hand !

Re: new york knife co
Thank you, JP and John.
Full disclosure.....if you enlarge the pics you will see a couple of fine cracks, and also a small chunk of stag missing on the pile side. Having said that, I am still extremely happy to have it. I have never seen another and likely won't see one.

You remember correctly, but you have probably never met an etch you didn't like!
Thank you for sending it my way, Roger.

Wow that’s one heck of knife. The stag is amazing.
Re: new york knife co
Really nice old NYK Co knife. I have a OVB, HS&B knife I picked from cato on AAPK back awhile. It was posted back. I wanted to put it with your NYK knife. Hope it is ok. Pictures will enlarge nicely might be able to see trace of etch.

Re: new york knife co
Have a few NYKCos, but here's one of my favs from the Boy Scout shelf.
From 1911, Both New york knife co and (early) Hammer brand stamps.
Picked up a period box for it too, not model # matching but I think it adds something.
Oh yea, forgot I had an original 1911 BSA handbook for this too, where the knife is described (i'll add that pic too). The handbook has it described and has an advertisement for it, $1 because it was deluxe ! LoL

Re: new york knife co
Thanks Ike. I was kinda hesitant on it. I bought it on eBay and the blades are in really good condition for the pocket worn look of the bone. I think maybe back in the day the owner wanted to carry it just didn’t use it much??
