^Lot 1037 Knife Collection Mining Hard goods/Important Mining Publications

This lot of 10: consists of a Boy Scout style knife with 4 blades, a Kadat 1013, with two blades, a Camco, with a corkscrew and an East Indian looking rapier, with a leather scabbard. There is also a deer leg handle hunting knife made in Germany an English made dagger, a small pen knife with no markings and a straight razor manufactured in Sheffield, England by Edward Barnes and Son in the mid-19th century. The real jewel of this lot is the worst looking, a rare Green River style Indian trade knife by J. Ward Atlas Works - Russell. Here‘s a knife you don‘t want to miss out on, you don‘t come across these every day. The blade is very well marked with J. WARD ATLAS WORKS and is circa 1880. J. Ward was owned and operated under John Russell Green River works and was considered his “economy brand” but obviously even his “economy” brand is very high quality. It’s 14.8” long, has a tapered tang and the handles appear to be rosewood or coco bola wood. - Jacobitz Collection
