HUGE SELECTION OF UNFINISHED CUTLERY AND FOLDING KNIVES. A collection of approximately 60 unfinished pieces of cutlery and folding knives. These pieces were gathered following Scagel’s death in 1963 and consist mainly of folder blades, liners, and scales and ivory and stag slabs. Many of the blades and liners are well stamped with his name stamp, “USA” and kris marks. This collection is a real treasure trove of Scagel’s work-in-progress, and it is a real mystery why some of these pieces were never finished. There are also some forged-out pieces that were never used and were allowed to become rusty and pitted. These are a great and varied example of some of the Master’s work. There would be considerable value here if these rare knives were all finished, a fabulous find. PROVENANCE: Dr. Jim Lucie Collection. CONDITION: All pieces vary. 4-46238 JL72 (4,000-5,000)
