    The original knife thread.

    The devil is in the details on this pre 1937 Utica. A gentlemen's knife with spear point master and a pen blade. Both blades have half stops. The slanted, pinched and grooved bolster's add a little flourish. The natural celluloid scales that resemble smooth bone are pinned flush. By the...

    Yes. It’s a holdover from the previous century. They were essentially gentlemen knives. It’s essentially a pattern name that stuck around. Like stockman or Texas toothpick and so on.

    A pair of Iroquois pen knives. Iroquois was a house brand or sub brand of Utica (Kutmaster fame), but most literature states that the brand only existed from 1930 to 1940. Most likely a depression era business move. The lower knife is nicer in quality and is probably earlier.

    Cleaning Fish Smell out of Hatchback

    I think I went through a case of Zep Smoke and Odor eliminator a few years ago. After evicting a non-paying renter (8 months), I went into the house and literally gagged. He seemed to take advantage of my late father's health issues and ignored the no smoking policy. Cigarette, cannabis and...

    I think the local sales rep was pretty prolific at the time. I've seen them for a rope company in Bellingham and for the paper mill in Port Townsend.

    Large Case-XX (1940-64) Texas Toothpick, pattern #31093 in yellow composition. In case you're curious, the shotgun shell is a 14-gauge and is older than the knife.
