Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

Cattaraugus is known for producing four things. The 225Q (military applications), Folders, Straight Razors, and household cutlery. I have not been able to find much information at all regarding the non-225Q fixed blade knives that were produced.
I found this knife and was quite taken by its aesthetic appeal for me. When it arrived, it was a little smaller than I had expected, but still feels good in the hand and is a nice size for hunting and skinning.

Here is an overall view of the knife.
The blade is 4 13/16" long; OAL = 8 3/4" long

The handle looks to be stacked plastic spacers with a few (5) thin brass accent spacers. Aluminum pommel with an aluminum pommel nut to keep the handle tight.

The recent flurry of activity regarding Derek Smith's book concerning Cattaraugus, prompted me to send an inquiry to Michael A Losicco asking about this knife.  Both Mike and Derek know far more about Cattaraugus than I and Mike was able to ID this knife so very quickly!

Turns out this is a Number 10.  And it evidently has a full blade.  I will be trying to learn more about it soon, but I was so ecstatic I wanted to share the good news as soon as I could.

HAPPY DAYS!
