Marked and un marked knives
« on: October 05, 2010, 08:13:57 AM »
I bought a delinquint storage room and it had manym many knives in it all appear to be never
sharpened. Some have markers marks some don't, it is running me nuts trying to id them
Walker,Pullen, SIMS,F.J. Richtio, and the list goes on, two really nice Bowies with no marks
I have looked on Blade Gallery and 2 other sites but can't find any details on how to id them
If any one knows of a site that can or will try to id please let me know.

Good luck. Unless the knives have a distinct style particular to a specific maker, it can be impossible.
The best I can think of is to go to one of the knife forums that have a collector's forum and post pics there.

In years gone by, I would often talk to knife maker Martin Pullen at several Texas knife shows.  He was from Granbury, Texas.   Made very nice knives and was a good guy.  He died several years ago.  You could Goggle his name to find out more about his knives.  Wish I would have bought one 10 yrs ago.
