A very interesting discovery

The Cattaraugus Cutlery Company was started by John Champlin and his son Tint in 1882. It was first incorporated under the name J.B.F. Champlin and Son as a wholesale distribution company based in Little Valley, New York. The business proved to be a successful endeavor, and it soon branched into a knife production company named Cattaraugus.

A very interesting discovery

Post by PA Knives »

I donated a full sized hand carved wooden early Seneca Indian replica. While touring the museum which is AWESOME. I saw this display. It’s in Salamanca NY. I highly recommend a visit
