Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

i bought this knife at the Hollis nh flea market. It's very big, it's marked bear and bull on the blade along with hand made on the same blade. It also has a bear and bull emblem that looks nickel and black inset into the yellow side plate. The side plates are yellow or yellowed mother of pearl type material with a small piece missing on one side. The knife is 8" long, the large blade is 6" long, the short reg blade is 3" long, the last blade is razor shaped and also 3" long. Total length when knife is open is 14" long. The bolsters look like nickel. Except for the missing piece and very minor scratching on the bolsters it is in very nice condition. The blades are highly polished and look like they were never resharpened. This thing weighs almost 1.5 lb. it looks like it has age to it even though it is in such good shape. Is it maybe a store or salesman demo knife? I can't find anything like it on the Internet. Any info is appreciated. Can't figure out its value since I can't find anything like it. Thanks for the help. Dan

I am sure John will help you on this Dan, but he is going to need more pictures. In particular the other side of the knife. If there is a tang stamp, sheild or other markings.

The pictures are indeed going to be very important for this one.  Bear & Bull has been used by many companies.  I have seen Frost market it under Frost and Buck Creek branding.  I believe some of them were produced in Germany also

Looks like the secondaries on a Bear and Bull Jumbo Whittler...

Wow that picture is it exactly. Thanks so much. Is it as old as it looks? And value? Thanks dan

According to the Cutlery Corner website, they had a "retail" value of $53.34.  They sold on the show for below $20.00, but they're not available now, which might raise the price somewhat.
