old knives for parts or repair
I've got some old knives and if anyone wants to have these for parts or wants a repair project, happy to send these to you.
Valley Forge stockman
Scales went kaput. They seem to have melted. At some point someone appears to have tried to use balsa wood to replace the rear one and the result was not so good.
Western States Boulder Co
Scales are really nice pick bone. Main blade is worn. Rest of knife is good. Looks like a very early one.
Ulster pen knife
Bone handles are worn. Spring, bolsters, liners are all good.

Re: old knives for parts or repair
The first three are spoken for. Here is one more.
This is a Robeson Shuredge stamped 323826 probably made in the 30s. The steel used for the blades is good carbon steel, though there has been some unfortunate sharpening though both remain nice and thick The black bakelite has a chunk missing. I've seen this model referred to as Senator and Big Cigar knife. Some TLC by someone skilled can make this useful again. LMK if interested and will send your way.

Re: old knives for parts or repair
Here is an intriguing one. This knife was made about 108 years ago. Under what looks like celluloid scales, it clearly says Katie Conrad Hamilton Ohio June 1st 1915. Does this commemorate a birth or honor someone in passing? The blades are broken but it looks like there is a stamp visible though I cannot quite make it out. There are figures in the handle too but hard to see what they are. Bolsters look to be nickel silver. The artistry and feel of this swell body knife is cool when you hold it. Whomever made this or had it manufactured was expressing something and telling a story. If anyone has thoughts would love to hear them, and if you want this, LMK and will ship it to you. This is good for someone with a magnifying glass and a penchant for genealogy. If knives could talk.
Will be adding more soon.

Re: old knives for parts or repair
I’m going to keep this thread going. I have a Camillus cigar jack , 3 3/4” , no pattern number that has a worn out tang on the master blade. No snap.
It has a nice set of bone handles and the sheep foot and pen blade are about full.
If any one would like this for parts send me a PM with address and I’ll mail it out. Steve B.
SOMEONE HAS REQUESTED THIS KNIFE. IT IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

Keep your edge sharp, otherwise you just can't cut it.

Re: old knives for parts or repair
Great to see this thread going. To all who pm'd on previous posts, packages went out Wednesday.
Here is another one if anyone is interested. This knife has cool copper colored scales.Looks like some sort of fish scale pattern?The small blade is broke and the other is worn but lots of life left in it. Cannot read the stamp but do see Cleveland. Herbva?
