This forum is dedicated to the discussion and display of old knives. The rich history of all the many companies that made them through the early years will be found here as well as many fine examples of the cutlers art. Share pictures of your old knives and your knowledge here!
for those of you that do not get Knife World, "shame on you" here is a copy of the pic that was used for my article on the "World's largest Knife and Fork" Enjoy
This is Tint Champlin in Little Valley NY circa 1900's they hung over the door to the entrance of the plant from the office area at that the CAT plant for years. Read my article to learn more.
The picture is somewhat distorted though. I use this as my screen saver. Imagine that?????

My copy of Knife World seems to come later than other's. Maybe they mail them out a few at a time alphabetically. Can't wait to see your story David, and find out if that set is still around.

If it's meant for me to have it, it'll still be there.
That story came out a couple of issues back, right? Talked about how know one knew where that set was at now. Cool story. I was walking around for 2 days imagining I might find that set at a yard sale for $10!I recieved my FEB. Knife World yesterday, but never recieved the Jan. Anyway, GREAT story
Yes that story appear a couple issues ago. I still haven't located them yet though.
