another beauty, you must have a really good hiding place
"It's "Pocket Jewelry." - Sure is Ron! Lots of "Bling" about it.
Derek,
It's 2 7/8" closed and the blade has a 1 7/8" cutting edge. It's "Pocket Jewelry."
Thanks for the compliment!
Another 'beauty' Ron .... what size is it ? Hard to tell from the pic (Nice pic by the way)
Thanks for your comment, John!
These old A.G. Russell era "Bertram" Hen & Rooster knives truly are amazing. The obvious attention to detail that went into making these knives is incredible. One need only to look inside of the knife to appreciate the pride and dedication the Bertram cutlers had when plying their craft during the final days of the old Bertram factory. Seeing those polished nickel silver liners is the proverbial "proof in the pudding."
Sadly the current Hen & Roosters, while still good, have never been the same as these older handmade knives since the Bertram factory closed in 1980. It marked the end of an era.
That is one awesome looking knife Ron, One can tell even from a photo that everything is fitted quite well. Just beautiful!
