Weird mother of pearl

Started this discussion. Last reply by Jan Carter Mar 17, 2016. 4 Replies

This knife has me totally baffled. I have a lot of mother of pearl handled knives but this knife displays a very "smoky" appearance that I don't think is natural. There is no apparent sharpening of…Continue

Stamped on the smaller of the shorter of the two blades is: "W.H. Morley & Sons-Germany" This excellent condition pearl handled little knife has single snap blades. Very little, if any,…Continue

A real cutie

Here's another of my yard sale finds from years ago and one of my favorites even though I know very little other than I think it is a true "pen" knife used for sharpening quills. Both blades are…Continue

Purchased this queen knife today from a local gentleman

Posted on February 11, 2017 at 16:31 7 Comments

I have quite a few Queen knives but I'm not familiar with this one that I purchased today. The wood is exotic and the knife is marked as seen in the photos. All information would be appreciated...type of wood?, number made? When made? and reasonable fair market value?   thank you all for your help. Please address comments to my personal email address which is pithole@zoominternet.net  There is no damage or imperfections..this is reflection.…

Quite Unique and very limited

Posted on April 17, 2016 at 8:53 5 Comments

Handle material is quite often unique, beautiful and durable, or all three of these features, but I think the handle on this knife of mine "takes the cake" as far as uniqueness especially. The wood on this handle came from the bottom of one of the first oil wells drilled near my home over 140 years ago. Many of the wells were abandoned after the oil gave out and just recently within the past 5 or 10 years these wooden rods (called sucker rods), were removed from the average depth of 600 feet…

Price and Value guides

Sorry I missed you the other night, Don.  I usually leave my browser open, so I'm guessing the site was reporting me as being online even though I was in bed sleeping.  I've been checking if you're on whenever I hop on, but you haven't been.  Congratulations on being featured.  I've been enjoying your posts in the Queen group.
