Great looking knives! ::tu:: ::tu::

I'll have to look in Sellens' book when I get back to Alexandria to see if I can find anything your knife, miketx.

Cool Tickler etch, so they put that etch on Coke Bottle hunters and large Toothpicks?

I have never seen a TICKLER etch on a Keen Kutter toothpick, just on the hunters.

miketx, Sellens says that pattern is a K2909 and was in the Simmons catalogs from 1905 through to 1929.

Thank you, danno50, and you're right about a "Tickler" etch on a large toothpick. I was confusing it with the pattern. ::tu::

Thanks Willy, it is a cotton sampler.
Yep, redrider, I was pretty sure that was the case. Does seem strange though, that they would put the TICKLER etch on a hunter and not a tickler pattern (AKA toothpick).

Just got this one. A 0154, 3" closed, has the Made in USA stamp, as opposed to the St Louis MO, and has seen very little, if any, use. Sellens says this model, with the pearl handles, was in the Simmons catalogs between 1927 to 1929.

Thanks Lyle. There are a couple of possibilities, but, the roll might be over until OKCA in April.
