Description:
We fondly remember our good old friend, Mr. James Hollis Glover, late of Baldwyn, Mississippi. James Hollis traded with us from shortly after we opened in the 1950s until his untimely death a decade ago. More than any other American, James Hollis was responsible for a massive wave of Pakistani-made pocket knives that fairly saturated the Southern and Midwestern markets during the late 1980s and early 1990s. He even sent his supplier plant managers by to visit us when they were in country. Mr. Glover’s knife brand was White Tail Cutlery, slick made and good looking knives with his trademark inked on the obverse of the main blade and the word Pakistan on the reverse. Laminated Micarta handle panels were as good as anybody’s, even though the steel strength left something to be desired. Here is one of Mr. Glover’s most innovative creations, a Muskrat Pattern with double locking blades. Where his stockman knives 25 years ago wholesaled in the $2.50 range, these were upwards of $6.00 apiece, so not many of them ever came onto the market. Bolster, blade, liner, and backspring material are all brushed stainless. Blades are, as the photos show, Muskrat contoured California Clip skinners with individual backsprings and individual locks for each blade. Overall length closed is 3 5/8 inches; and each blade measures 2 5/8 inches from heel to point. Point rounding is original from the factory, a liability of the blade shape due to thinnes. This knife is mint, and those measurements are factory original. Backspring strength is excellent, and fit and finish is better than other Pakistani knives from the period. The present flood of Chinese made knives, of course, spelled the death knell not only for White Tail Cutlery and Pakistani producers, but also for almost all U.S. Made modestly priced cutlery. That flood is so extensive that resale on China made knives is nil. We will not even pay $1.00 apiece for any of them. We’re offering this fine Pakistani Mississippian specimen, however, for only $ 20.00.
By offering to buy any of our knives, buyer certifies that he/she is 21 years of age and is not prohibited by federal, state, or local laws from possessing that specific knife or knives.
