UTICA !!!

[wlf]

Nice one Jim. Utica bone is a hard study, you’ve got a great example, I don’t worry about that crack.

Mike you got a dandy, the early Utica stamp, and a real beauty.

Here's a nice little Utica jack. 3 1/4" closed. -- 42234 --

In its finest "end of day" covers with black stripes. Why not.
A very well made knife and snappy to go.

Thanks for looking.

Wow Joe, you just keep pulling them out of the woodwork! Lovely and interesting covers.

Ditto ditto .. not a good knife to carry in your plaid suit Joe with those black stripes ..,

[FRJ]

Thank you for the nice comments, guys.

Lee, I never told you but that's just painters tape I put on that suit to make it look plaid.
Comes right off.

Joe, I really like that knife, very unusual, looks to be in good condition.

There's some fine old Utica Stamps being shown here!
Heres a nice Utica here - wee Tank of a thing, I really love everything about this Knife, The Bone is ( imo ) stunning, the shield is cool, those big Bolsters are nearly pushing this knife into a Barlow ( Not Quite I know..but.. ), That lovely Big full Main with a beefy Swage and cool Long pull!

[LongBlade]

Stunner Duncan .. that knife has it all - nice big master, sweet bone and as you say it looks hefty ... What is the closed length ?

What Lee stated Duncan, great knife!

[FRJ]

You described that knife pretty well Campbellclanman.
I'd like to know the length too and does it have any stamped numbers?

[Campbellclanman]

Hi Lee, JohnR and FRJ, Thanks for the comments on that Utica!

I must apologise about the delay- been flat stick replacing a Toiler Cistern - drilling out snapped Toilet Bowel Studs in the floor, new everything- etc - not the greatest of jobs to look forward to- all done now though!

Took a while to find the Ol Girl- ok - it is a mere Whisper under 4 inches closed guys, and there are no other pattern numbers etc behind the Tangs etc.

[FRJ]

Thank you Campbellclanman, for the information. I was kind of surprised to see a number on mine, but what do I know.

The broken studs at the base are a real problem or a rotted floor.
What I hated the most was when the throne had to be removed you practically had to hug the thing to get it out.
Oh, an the cussin' an the swerin', Good Lord forgive me!

That is one great knife and a hard one to find. As most of you know Utica's are one of my favorite makers. Here is a catalog cut of the knife.

Many thanks for showing the Catalog on this particular knife.

Yes I did see it before, wish I had a chance to buy it then!

[Campbellclanman]

Hi Mike

Oh - ok please forgive my absent mindness- For a while I thought that I had bought this off you? My apologies- well where I bought the knife I really don’t know then
