An Old Scout

The first Robeson knives were imported by Millard Robeson from England and Germany exclusively. This continued from 1979 until 1896 when Robeson began manufacturing knives in the United States. Since inception, the company has gone through several reorganizations & eventually ended up as a Queen Cutlery brand.

An Old Scout

Post by Ridgegrass »

A friend found this old, well-worn 642214 ,"SCOUT". The bones are beautiful. The bail and can-opener stud are broken off but it's a great survivor, Looks like hammered pins. Very happy to have it! J.O'.

Thanks Gents. Think I'll just leave it cleaned and oiled.Looks like it earned it's stripes honestly and I kinda like it that way. An old scout like the rest of us. J.O'.

Someone got some good use out of that ol' Robeson, which were top of the line knives. 😎👍
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.
