Picked up this knife in an antique shop in Forsyth, GA. My research online has come up with two different date ranges. The Case Bradford PA stamp shows to be the pre 1920 era. But the CASE Tested XX stamp shows to be 1920 to 1940 era. Any help clarifying...

Thanks everyone and thanks Steve for the bigger pic. Took it to the guy that asked for it to be made and decided he didn't want it. Already had a knife with deer antler scales. Lets hope someone else likes it or else I'll be carrying it for a while.

Overall length is 7 1/4 ". Etched with ferric chloride. This is my 4th knife to make.

on the seax, are those lines in the blade from edge quenching?

Drew this off hand. We'll see how it goes.

That's a good lookin knife. I'm on my third knife and I still don't have a mark yet. I'm a little picky so I imagine it won't come anytime soon.

Hello everyone. My name is Chris and I'm new to knife making. I've been making knives for about 6 months now in the Bryan/College Station area. Already posted my first two in the picture gallery. Hoping to use this forum to learn more and advance my skills. Chris

Thanks for all the comments. The smaller one is oak and the large one is deer antler.

A nickle for reference. Also pictured is my second knife, still needs a little work. I'm going with a scotch brite finish instead of the mirror polish. I get the shape by cutting the lawn mower blade with a torch after tracing a blank, then use a belt sander and hand sanding to finish.

This is the first knife I've ever made. Made from commercial lawn mower blade. BBQ
