WHAT! This is supposed to be one of yours. It's a Bertram. That's the reason I bought it, I thought it was one of yours. I'm lost, Mr. AG. This knife was aged to be from the 70's to the 80's. The tang stamp is "Bertram..cutlery..Rostifrei..241DS. You are not being rude, but very helpful for a beginner like me. Please tell me where I went wrong.
Robert,
I do not mean to be rude, but, it would be a great kindness if you would post pictures of Jim Frost's knives on his forum, rather than mine. It is very painful to be reminded that he has owned the mark since 1980.
thanks,
A. G.
The picture doen't show the true beauty of this little jewel!
Robert,
That is a fine looking knife indeed!
I see now the knife I was talking about was a CM-8 with a bullet or .219 Zipper cartridge. Yep Railsplitter I have alot to learn also. Thanks guys.
Thanks A. G.
There were a few for importers like Voss that were ordered with shields. before WWII
Yeah the shield thing kind of threw me off at first but I think I understand it now. As far as I can tell, Hen & Rooster knives that were made prior to 1980 were made without shields. The exception to that rule is the knives that A.G. Russell made during for The Knife Collectors Club during his ownership. Most of those had some type of bullet shield but A.G. opted for the arrowhead on this one.
I am still in the learning stage with H&R knives so if I am incorrect, someone please feel free to set me straight. I am willing to learn as much as I can about them.
Robert,
The CM6 never had any other shield.
