My newest Robeson Sure Edge


Cyber Shot

Recommended Posts

I picked this up the other day.

 

I believe it to be pre WWII because of the cursive "Sure Edge" stamp.

 

The blade has only a couple of stains and no pitting. I don't think it has ever been sharpened except for the factory edge.

 

The handle appears to be stacked leather but almost looks and feels like wood. Overall it is very tight.

I also have this one in my collection. You can find the same knife in Mike Silvey´s book Knives of the United States Military World War II on page 214 and on the next page Mike wrote "These two Robeson knives were available commercially and were popular with GI´s."

It is also in :The Best of Cole" p.93, #2.
