This is a reproduction of a Catolog by Union Cutlery Company circa 1912-1923 that was put together by the Ka-Bar Cutlery Knife Collectors Club. Some of the images were damaged in the original catalog they took the scans from, therefore some of the images are not full. I have cropped the page scans to fit here. The pages are a slick semi-shiny finish so please excuse the glare on some images. On each page it includes an image of the knives with the model numbers and variations under the image. You should be able to click on the image to enlarge it.

That one page says, "Direct from our own factory". Not to nit-pick but I didn't know Sears had their "own factory" in the year of that catalog or ever. Did they have an ownership in any of their knife contractors? Levine lists them with Napanoch around 1900-1902.

Ridge, believe you’re correct . Sears never had a Cutlery co. As you stated here Napanoch 1900 to 02 . Then Smitty just posted about TTC in 1905. They had Wilbert 1907/08 . Not sure after that but it does lead me to agree with you that they only ordered ,not manufactured. They did have some very nice knives in those days and all the way thru the Sta-Sharp period in the 30 s .
Smitty. Nice Catalog cut out . Never seen the 1905 Cutlery page. ::tu:: ::tu::
