Old Wrench/Tool Knives

Miller Bro's · Post by **Miller Bro's** » Sat Feb 18, 2012 11:31 pm

These are some of my favorite old knives to collect. They are hard to find in good condition and come in a variety of sizes and brands. Everything from bone handles to all metal. There are several variations to be found and it could take you the rest of your life trying to find them all, not to mention emptying your bank account in the process

They can be Cresent wrench, Pipe wrench, Adjustable wrench, or tool knives let`s see them

This is my kind of thread. I love old tool knives and oddball knives. Here are some pics of a Case pliers knife,a Robeson Carriage knife,and numerous Cattaraugus wrench knives. My wife says I have to many Cat wrench knives but they are hard to pass up when they are in good condition.

I have never seen these. I will start looking.

Jerry,

That Robeson Carriage knife is almost identical to this Beaver Cutlery Co.

No shield is about the only difference I can see.

My guess would be that the Beaver Cutlery Co. knife was made on contract by Robeson. Everything seems to be identical except for the shield. Could be vice versa but I would bet one of them is a contract knife.

No doubt about it, Robeson made this one.

The Punch blade has the Robeson patent date stamped on it and the handles are a Robeson patent as well

Here are some pics of my latest pliers knife. Stamped W.H. Morley and Sons. Circa 1913-1927
One knife blade and a smaller blade that functions as a knife blade or a punch. The small blade is flat on one side and slightly rounded on the opposite side. The handle for the pliers has a screwdriver tip on the end of it. Fairly rare item especially in the condition this one is in. Blades have a few carbon spots but it has never been cleaned and the knife blades don't appear to have ever been sharpened.
Everyone has their weakness and mine is wrench/pliers/tool knives.

Here's one I've had a while. I had two; one with a nice sheath. I gave it to my son.
This is a well made tool.

There is a very nice Seaboard with sheath on Ebay right now.

Don't tell anyone I told you that.
