Hey, I kinda just discovered this group. This is right up my alley. Thanks Scott for starting it. I graduated from High School in Arcade, NY Wyoming Co - very near to Perry, NY (Robeson), Little Valley NY (Cattaraugus), and Camillus NY, as well as Olean NY. Among many Cutlery Co's in that area.

Here is my favorite Cattaraugus and my favorite Robeson - great old vintage knife companies.

Here are my 3 Russell Barlows - old Vintage Knives. One is missing the small blade but they are in good shape.

I have tended to use the shotgun approach to collecting but I am trying to focus my collection on 3 or 4 makers but it is so hard for me to do.

Take this knife....this is just my 2nd Winchester.  The first one I got when I was ver young.  This one I recently ought.

It's small...just 2.5" closed with 2 blades, so nearly miniature.

Pearl handles with very long bolsters.

The Big Book of Pocket Knives calls this one a Senator Pen Pattern. 

Not being a Winchester guy, I didn't know that name.  It has a spear and pen lade, polished well and has nickel silver bolters and lining.

The model # 2306 shows up in the Big Book with a value for a top level knife of up to $180.  This one does have pitting but it's not a young knife.  I'm thinking book value on this is 100-120.

This one is pretty close to that but didn't cost me as much in an auction setting.  Only 15 bidders and I paid $70.

For the life of me I can't get this tang to show up well in a photo tho it's clear a can be in real life.

The # is 2306.  The larger blade has Winchester on the tang.  The pearl handles are in great shape with no cracks or shrinkage and the bolsters  look good and the entire knife shines well.

So I am still a noob and have a question.  Do you guys prefer photo in the post or as attachments??

Thanks.
