Very.....

Thank you Dan.

Today I add this pocket knife to my all metal handle collection and to my "general" CAMILLUS pocket knife collection. It is a 1960 CAMILLUS, single blade, 3 tool pocket knife. It required a little cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

This is the most recent arrival to my all metal handle knives collection. It's another, THE W & H CO. - USA - NEWARK NJ, single blade pocket knife. According to the GOINS book, "c 1870-1959 Whitehead & Hoag was founded in 1870. They went out of business about 1959. This was an advertising specialties firm; the knives were made for them by a variety of cutlery manufacturers." It measures 2 1/2" closed, not including the ring and 4 3/8" open, not including the ring. It needed a bit of cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is. The last two pictures are of the "fob" that was attached to the pocket knife when I received it.

It measures just a hair under 2 1/4" closed and just a hair over 3 3/4" open. *** I posted the wrong "open" length for the other two similar pocket knives. ALL three are just a hair over 3 3/4" open. *** It needed a bit of cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

George Schrade had a ton of patents for knives! He was a real inventor.

Here's a see=through filigree knife by E. BERCIO, Firenzi, Italy. All steel, 3'.

This is the latest pocket knife to join my all metal handle knives collection. It's another, THE W & H CO. - USA - NEWARK NJ, single blade pocket knife. According to the GOINS book, "c 1870-1959 Whitehead & Hoag was founded in 1870. They went out of business about 1959. This was an advertising specialties firm; the knives were made for them by a variety of cutlery manufacturers." It measures just a hair over 2" closed and 3 3/8" open. This is the fifth of these "W & H" "fob" knives that I've acquired and it is the "Ugly Duckling" of the five. It needed a little cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is. If you like cheese, there is a history to the company on the handles.

Today I added this pocket knife to my "general" CAMILLUS pocket knife collection. It is a 1958 CAMILLUS, single blade, 3 tool pocket knife. A nice companion for the 1949, the 1959 and the 1960 that I've acquired. It has a few issues, but one can be repaired. It also needed a little cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

This was an advertising specialties firm; the knives were made for them by a variety of cutlery manufacturers." But with the advertising on the handles of the pocket knife, the date of manufacture can be narrowed down to circa 1930. There is a serial number(?) stamped into the handle. It measures just a hair under 2 1/4" closed and just a hair over 3 3/4" open. It is completely magnetic. I don't collect advertising pocket knives per se, but besides being all metal, it advertises a bank during the depression era and I also have a direct connection with the town/city of Poughkeepsie, but not with a bank. It needed a bit of cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

If you think that I already posted THIS EXACT SAME pocket knife under this topic, think again, you're wrong.

My favorite is an old Miller bros cutlery

This is my latest entry for this topic. It's a GEO SCHRADE, single blade with fish scaler, double tang stamp, wire frame/handle pocket knife. Definitely not the cleanest example of this pattern that I've obtained. It needed cleaning. I did what I could with it. The handle looks like it has issues (it isn't rusted), but it's really not that bad. I took some pictures and here it is.
