Thanks Phil and Tom.
Looks like some one put it away wet at sometime but it's still a little honey.

Another knife by the old Southington Cut. Co. 1867 - 1905
3 1/2", 1/2 stops X 2
After all these years a strong old knife. The slightest wobble on the main only.
Thanks for looking.

Re: Southington Cut. Co.
The good luck of Southington figured into the glorious comeback victory by my Yellowjackets this afternoon, so what better than to bump this thread in celebration!

Re: Southington Cut. Co.
Joe, is that from Southington Connecticut? It just hit me why I recognize that. I did some work at the Southington YMCA about 15 years ago. Installed some hardware and the membership software of the company I worked for at the time.

Nice big jack, Mark.
I wonder what gets those old Southington bones orange.
Here's a 3" pearl. Used a little. Dig them pulls.
