Hi Folk, Whew, what a year so far!, there is much talk about those beautiful TC Barlows, this year they have dominated Traditionals - and for good reason!
Charlie is a wonderful ambassador for Traditional knives, The Miller and that lovely old New York Knife pictured below are from Charlie - Thank you Charlie, and Anthony for the equal ender!
Let us not forget about those beautiful HJ's, please join me in showing off those lovely knives......
Here is one of my first ever HJ'S gifted to me by SunnyD ( Anthony )...
This things sharpens to a Razor!
Miller Bros HJ
Miller Bros. Tang Stamp on the Main in Circular - MILLER BROS. over center Meriden. over USA
The Punch stamp is different, where in circular - MILLER BROS. over center CUT Co. over Meridan.
There are several different types of Stamps with slight variances with Millers- not as prolific as some Cutlers can get, but this one is slightly easy to narrow down to a period of in between a 54 year period gap - possibly able to determine a more accurate age gap with more information on the Company or Catalogs...
Miller Bros moved to larger premises in 1872 in Meriden, Goins and Levines give you different dates depending on the stampings starting from 1863, or starting 1872 ....
So here we have a Beauty - Miller Bros HJ, that I can narrow down to what was made in between the years of 1872 - 1926.
I really like this HJ, this is old School Cutlery at it's best...
Nice Early New York HJ, the deep dark Ebony still captures you to this day, the authoritative Snap makes one whistle out a soft "Whew" - it really does as silly as this sounds - beautiful HJ, proud to be stabled here in New Zealand after coming all the way from Canada...
