A-Z index for Research & Resources

Some great Research and my thanks to the tireless work done by Sue OldsWidow. Check out that index, you just may be there for days! Also her research turned up an old resource that is worth revisiting if you have not seen.

Produced by iKC Member Tobais Gibson its a good reference for collectors: http://apg2k.hegewisch.net/index.html

I could not have said this better myself Mr Hanner!

Does this help any Sue?

Western States -

"Early Western States knives were manufactured by Challenge, New York Knife Company, Valley Forge, Utica, and Case Cutlery among others"

I would imagine handle materials used would be the ones used by those companies? Vintage Western States knives I've seen have the usual bone, celluloid, wood materials.
