Tyson- Those firms are some goodies, no doubt. I liked all the old firms that made the elephant toe, myself.

oh yeah, I take intrest in the rare ones & research their history. Crown Cutlery, American Winstead,Hollingsworth,Carl Schlieper,American Shear & Knife Co.JA Henckles,Holley,John Prim,Miller Bros, and the list goes on... I like the old solingen German knives as well, Pumas,Rostfrei,bulldogs even though their not old compared to whats on this list... List goes on as well.

I like the black whittler. I had a rare whittler that looked like that one. It was a Curley Cutlery Co N.Y. made in the 1800's. The blades had no side play(wobble) Great snap & 1/2 way stop, walked & talked... I'm a gubber for getin rid of it.

Well I just realized I posted this on Vintage "AMERICAN" knives but this knife was manufactured in Germany. Sorry for the oversight

I just picked up this AW Wadsworth & Sons Germany "CATTLE KNIFE" at a flea market. First I have never heard or seen a knife by this mfg. The master blade is deep stamped (not etched) with 'CATTLE KING" stamped. IT measures 3 1/2 in closed. 2 long pulls and one short. Very good to excellent shape. Does not appear to have been used or sharpened. I looked up AW Wadsworth in Goins and the only thing I could find is that they were in business from 1905-1936 in Germany and were a trademark or A. Kastor & Brothers. If anyone could provide me with anymore info I would appreciate it. I am not looking to sell this knife but just interested in its value and/or anything else I can find out. Thanks in advance!
