That's a great one, Kev. Does it date to the '20's?

Not sure bud. I wish I had some better info on it. The handles are not Ivory but look like some type of plastic to my tired old eyes. I welcome any feedback from our knife community on it. I've been told it was made by NY Knife Company or something like that. I'm unsure. Thanks for commenting on it!!

Thanks brother Ike. It is a very cool old knife. I'm having trouble pinning down when it was made. Not a lot of info out there on the brand.
It appears they were in business from 1780 to 1910 or so. I got it with 3 other knives from the late 1800's, but this one seems a bit older to me.

Sunday special

Starting the patriotic workweek with a Zippo.

Good man, John!

Grandson found this baby box turtle this morning, so I paired it with the Wostenholm I was carrying.
Being conscientious for an eight year old, he released it after the picture was taken.
