What a nice knife!
At four inches with that large, round, barehead end it must be a great handle.
Good for you, Ike.

Scored 4 rare knives last night, this Nagle ReBlade is probably the rarest of them, only made 1914 to 1916, they are high quality knives with the ability to change blades. Will take pictures when it arrives.

Thanks Dan, Bill and John. I got that knife from a Voyles auction years ago that was chock full of pearl knives after a collector had passed away. It was low hanging fruit compared to the rest.

Not completely sure if this belongs here, so if not, my apologies and maybe our moderators could move to correct place...

Case & Son (arched) over Little Valley over NY stamping, 2 blade swell center knife. Very pocket worn and loved...
Not familiar with this pictular stamp ::hmm:: was hoping that others here would have an example of their own to show.
There is several examples I've found of the Case & Sons stamping, but wanted to find out a little more on this ol knife....Guessing pre "Sons" dating which is 1904??
Appreciate your insight,
Cheers, Randy

Very nice knife, Randy. ::tu:: Sargents 7th does not list it. However, he does say that the W.R. Case & Son was only used 1902 - 1903.
