Real deal ??

Winchester entered the knife market as a manufacturer in 1919 by acquiring two existing knife companies; Eagle Knife Co. of Connecticut & Napanoch Knife Co. of New York. Winchester stepped away from the market in 1942 to focus on war related manufactured products, but re-entered in the late 1980s by licensing its name to Blue Grass Cutlery. Blue Grass had high quality knives made by Queen Cutlery that featured the Winchester brand name for a handful of years until the license arrangement ran its course. Winchester eventually started licensing to other companies & now you will find the brand name used by several knife manufacturers by way of license agreements.

Real deal ??

Post by dobro59 »

I have winchester coffin bolster jack #2513. Saw on youtube about a winchester coffin bolster jack #2921, it also has winchester ink on main blade, and
"87 under 2921 model number. I think made by bluegrass.
Mine just has regular tang stamp and 2513 on pile side of tang. I'm thinking i might have an original from back in the day??

If you would, please post pictures of your knife.
Several clear, in-focus pictures from straight-on (not from add angles) of the knife from every side can really help identify the knife.
Jesus is life.
Everything else is just a hobby.
