Ulster Knife Co. 3-Blade Whittler, Stag Scales

$175.00

This three-blade whittler was made by the Ulster Knife Co. of Ellenville, New York, carrying the company's early N.Y.-marked tang stamp, used from its 1870s founding until Ulster was sold to Albert Baer in 1941, when the mark changed to "USA." Collectors and dealers regularly flag NY-stamped Ulster knives as scarce. The scales are genuine stag over nickel silver bolsters.
