Prince Albert Tin-Imperial Knife Offer

Post by csmith9333 »

I just recently got a PA Tin that has the Imperial Knife offer for $1.00 along with the other three Old Timer Kives at $2.00 on the back. The question to all and especially LT is what is the imperial knife model. Would like to get one to complete my set but do not know which knife it is. Hoping that the PA Tin may have the order from inside to help but would appreciate any information that others may have on this item.

csmith9333, I have a couple cans, Prince Albert for Ulster knives at $2.00 each and 5 wrappers from a tin. A Whittler, Barlow and Utility, the whittler is really a stockman. I have never seen the Imperal knife or the tin showing it. I would like to see a picture of your tin. I hope this has been some help.

Stockman,

Thank you for the response. I have both PA Tins (with the offer on the front of the tin and without) and the three Old Timer/Uslter knives and the order froms - However I found that there was a third PA Tin with a Imperial Knife offer along with the Old Timer/Uslter Offer. The Question now is what was the Imperial Knife? I will post a picture of the PA tin when I get the it (hopefully this coming week) - currently I only have the picture posted by the e-bay seller from Canada. On the Scharde Forum I got information from Michael that there was a third tin and went looking and with some luck was able to get one. Now to the more difficult task to find the Imperial knife - Ha! life is never easy. CES

I have all three knives and the flat or oval tin.
This is the first time I have seen a round tin.
