Tidioute Cutlery Limited Edition Pocket Knife of 25 issued in 2010, Ivory Acrylic Handles, Mint in Box. Approximately 25 miles east of Titusville alongside the Allegheny River is located the small town of Tidioute, Pa. Unknown to most folks in the area and even some local residents, is the significant cutlery history of the town in the era from the 1890’s to the 1930’s. Over that short span of years, five separate cutlery manufacturers produced knives that today are sought after by collectors who covet the high quality and rare Tidioute brand knives.
Nearly 100 years later, we have brought back the Tidioute name with our Tidioute Cutlery branded classic pocket knives. Much like the original Tidioute Cutlery Co. circa 1909 to 1916, our new knives have blades made with high quality American made 1095 carbon steel and handled with a variety of traditional materials that include North American cattle bone and Ebony wood. Also used is the unique and distinctly colored and figured Acrylic Acetate which can handle the toughest of jobs.
Limited edition pocket knife, pattern 661210 issued Sept 21, 2010 with COA included in box. Blade is etched 1 of 25 and handle etched #18.
3½" folded 6" open. Mint. Estimated Value $400 - 600
