Most Popular Old Brands

I've seen over the years various charts ranking "the most popular brands" for certain time periods, but recognized these ranking are actually very subjective to each collector's own preferences.

So, let me ask you- what are your favorite knife brands?

Western
Schrade

I really like Kinfolk's and Robeson, as well

Robeson

The Kinfolks are really good for the price...

This is an old Robeson Shure edge Dog Leg Jack that I recently picked up. I also have some old Cattaraugus and others and will share some pics later. My favorite are the old vintage circle Remington knives.

Whittlers & Liner Locks by Cattaraugus

All older Schrade Peachseed Bone Knives

#1 for me is Schrade

Then I look at Case, NY Knife Co., Utica, Ulster.

Since I sell at knife/gun shows I go for a wide range of vintage, even up to some recent knives as late as early 2000's.

I also go for custom makers if reasonable
