Hello gents, here's another blast from the past.
This is a 61106L Union Cutlery coke bottle lock blade. The bone is almost perfect, the action is great. Tang stamps are "Union" and "PAT OCT 23 1916". There is an issue with the rear bolster. After looking at it and taking the pictures I think the whole knife has TWISTED a little. Notice the one bolster is higher than the other. Thanks for looking

In the last picture it does look a little strange.chorizotaco wrote: ↑Sun Jan 24, 2021 9:02 pm Hello gents, here's another blast from the past.

Nice looker Dan!! I have never seen anything like the offset. Knife definitely cleaned but still a cool knife. Love that early Union Cut Co bone!! Mine has the "North America" stamp and the same Pat mark as yours. I really like these lever lock models. Good talking to you yesterday, and thanks for the info! That Trading Post is pretty nice but it looks like the snap on the sheath has been replaced but it is a fairly rare knife and a very hard to find sheath. I already have a couple so go for it if you like it.

I have to agree with gunsil, that bone is beautiful. I like the knife too.

This one has an arched Union Cut Co mark and no reference to a patent number.
