ANOTHER BIG FAN OF MY R.A.P. CUTLER 5 STAR SERIES!!!

CONGRADULATIONS   JOE  KEATING !!!!

Mr. Joe Keating from North Carolina is the newest proud owner of one of my Stag handled, three blade Stockmans.  He won it on E-Bay and is pleasantly happy with the quality, look, and feel of one of my finest efforts!!  He also was fortunate enough to send me his Certificate Of Authenticity for me to sign!!  My pleasure Joe; it will be back to you this week with some special gifts.   Joe should be happy to know that he now owns the FIRST autographed certificate in history!!  This should really kick the value quite a bit!!!  Good luck Joe!!!

SWITCHBLADES OUTLAWED CONTINUED!!!

Once again another picture of these deadly weapons!!  The top ones are automatic PENS, proving that the pen is

mightier  than the sword!  The Kennedy Half Dollar is to show size. The next ones down are some of those  “OUTLAWED” weapons!!   The bottom item in an antique folding Ivory and Nickel Silver toolmaker’s ruler that is

one foot long but folded to fit photo…well over 100 years old!!

COLONIAL KNIFE COMPANY..EAST SIDE OF THE OLD FACTORY.

COLONIAL KNIFE COMPANY..EAST SIDE OF THE OLD FACTORY.

Here’s a shot from the East side of the factory; the corner of Oak and Agnes Street. Two city blocks including a small section of the parking lot!!! White part of the building was the new office upstairs and the old steel stock room below. Following further down was the back of the grinding room. At the very end way down to the corner was the assembly room!
This was NOT a small place!! When I close my eyes I can still smell the oils, solvents and lubricants that were used and every room was different. I could walk in a room blindfolded, and I could tell you exactly were we were!!! NOBODY new that place like I did….Nobody… I miss you, Colonial Knife!

PUSH-BUTTON PASSION!!! ITALIAN AND GERMAN SWITCHBLADES..

For many years this country flourished with the production, sale, and trading values of the push-button automatic pocket knife.  For some foolish reason and by some foolish person or group of individuals, they felt it important to outlaw suchwonderful knives.  naturally, those people, the same ones that thought high-capacity gun clips were the reason for high crime in this country, were TERRIBLY WRONG!!!   This pathetic push-button law inserted years ago did serious damage to my company’s business along with many other knife manufacturer’s.  Once again, idiots making idiotic laws that have no effect on crime but made sence on paper to some additional idiots!! Regardless, here are some examples of the DANGER involved!!  What a joke!!

R.A.P. Cutler 5 Star Series Very Happy Collector

My friend Mr. Joe Keating from “All About Pocket Knives” has just received his new Stag Stockman R.A.P. Cutler!!

He sent me all kinds of pics and he’s absolutely delighted with his new toy!!  He paid about $50.00 for it but I reminded

him that these were never mass-produced and they were made exclusively by myself and are quite valuable!!

I have offered to sign his Certificate Of Authenticity and this should make the value well over $100.00 !!

Check out Joe’s blog at “All About Pocket Knives”….

Good luck Joe, and happy knife collecting!!   Robert A. Paolantonio… R.A.P. Cutler..
