I’ve had this NYKnife MOP for few years. I think it should go to someone who has matching initials. Looks to me that the initials are C D R. Tang stamp is NEW YORK over KNIFE CO over WALDON. Closed length is 2 7/8”. Blade etch reads “De Luxe”. Good snap.
PM me with your address if you or someone you know would like to have this little beauty and I’ll send it to you. Steve B.

Keep your edge sharp, otherwise you just can't cut it.

Looking for Carrier Cutlery and early Robeson with Elmira tang stamps.
