1992 Winchester Ad

Winchester entered the knife market as a manufacturer in 1919 by acquiring two existing knife companies; Eagle Knife Co. of Connecticut & Napanoch Knife Co. of New York. Winchester stepped away from the market in 1942 to focus on war related manufactured products, but re-entered in the late 1980s by licensing its name to Blue Grass Cutlery. Blue Grass had high quality knives made by Queen Cutlery that featured the Winchester brand name for a handful of years until the license arrangement ran its course. Winchester eventually started licensing to other companies & now you will find the brand name used by several knife manufacturers by way of license agreements.

1992 Winchester Ad

Post by just bob »

Was at an auction and bought a stack of SMKW catalogs. This is from the oldest catalog in the lot and I thought at some point it would be of some value to someone.

Men make plans and God laughs

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.
