BERKSHIRE Cutlery Co. easy-opener pocketknife:Very old knife, judging by its pattern; easy openers fell out of favor in 1960's with introduction of the Buck #110 hunter pattern. Other patterns went to fancy handles and interesting blade shapes but EZ-Os are kind of pedestrian---easy to open, for old people. Obscure American cutlery probably dated to 1800s, when every blacksmith also called himself a knife-maker. This knife was used, not hard, but for a long time. Some care was taken to sharpen it, but over the years some owner took a file or an electric grinder to it and left some scratches on blades. Knife walks and talks so well that I felt that it was worth saving. I wet-sanded and polished the blades to a remarkable shine and patched the rear handle slab that had broken off a small piece near the pivot. The value here is due to its age, low-volume pattern, and remarkable condition after rehab. No intrinsic value, but a nice gift for Grampa (or the retired man who cuts your grass).Mailing only to USA-48. Postage is usually between $5.00 and$6.26. Buyer pays $4.00, I will pay the rest.
