Earlier today I had conversation with Jim Sargent, His words to me were "I'll guarantee you that knife on page 235 is a good knife".Indicating the 6265LP in the lower right corner He went on to say he'd seen 2 or 3 others. Also that he would look around and get back to me in a couple of days.When I learn something more and I can spread more truth I will. Yay for the little knife!!!!!

Tony Foster explains the existence of both knives saying they were both mistakes...one in the WR era one in the tested era???? Hmmmm now my curiousity is really peaking as I am thoroughly unsatisfied with this explanation..and will pursue the topic further...To quote Micheal C. in the movie..."I try to get out and they pull me back in"..Onward with the quest.

I talked to Tony Foster about my knife he says it's a mis stamped 6208 whittler said he had one with 3 blades stamped as a 65. That 6265 and 6165 were both large frame knives first production was prior to 1920 in Bradford. I didn't think the blade was changed. It's been indicated to me knife is worth somewhere in the neighborhood of a lot, Good day and my regards.................
