Super Sharp!
Our Very Best Pocket Knife (EDC) Hibbard Spencer Bartlett Beautiful
This company went out of business in 1960 so this blade appears to be a rarely used survivor circa 1950-1960.
This companies tools rebuilt Chicago after a devastating fire.
This knife is in near mint condition. Scales are very beautiful. For a 60-70 year old knife..you would not know it. Not many are on google but the last selling price at auction went for $120. I'd say that it's worth every penny for the preservation. So if you're looking for an every day carry or a near mint HSB knife to add to your arsenal this is a great gift for yourself or the man in your life.

Hibbard Spencer Bartlett was a hardware wholesaler located in Chicago from 1855 to about 1960 (at least it is written in most knife books that the cutlery sales stopped around 1960). The company became True Value.
They did not manufacture their own knives. Most of their knives were made by Ulster, Camillus, New York Knife and Schrade. Houston and Zalesky list Ulster, Camillus and Schrade; Ritchie and Stewart list Ulster and Camillus; and Levine lists Ulster, Camillus and New York Knife Co. as manufactures of knives for HSB.


Ships free in the USA which is where I prefer it stays...but if someone values it right outside of the USA...shipping is 20 USD.






































My return policy is simple.
NO returns.
Why?

Because sellers are already losing money on postage, paying HIGH fees to make products available. When an item is SOLD it can no longer be SOLD. Contrary to popular belief nothing is free and the BUYER pays all costs. There are a lot of games we are forced to play like "free shipping" and 30 day refunds...I don't play those games. If you don't want the product...don't buy it.

If you do want it...keep it.
I can't afford to lose money or sales for customers I'd rather not keep. It sounds harsh but I assure you...it's true. I don't need everyone's business nor do I want everyone's business.

When you provide things like soaps, lotions, and other consumables a return goes into the trash and the cost of the item is increased to absorb loss. That's not fair to good customers.

It's near impossible already to keep prices down with inflation and an incompetent government constantly disrupting the markets. Antiques razors are carefully packaged by me to assure they arrive safely. When BAD customers return items they also don't care to package them properly and I end up with a $200 dollar loss plus postage and that's not a sustainable business model. If you want to try things and return them but cheap Chinese junk from Amazon and go nuts. When you are THE best at something you can be selective with your policies and customers. Please note IF something is NOT as described or you receive the wrong item entirely I am of course going to correct MY mistake. Buyer remorse is not something I take responsibility for. Providing HIGH quality products at the lowest price possible is a near impossible task these days. Many items I lose money on just to make something available. I have no use for used cosmetics and I do not want them back. If a razor is not shaving to your satisfaction I will allow a return within 30 days. (buyer pays return postage) I will pay to ship it back and I will assure the razor edge it is adjusted to your needs. If for some reason I cannot do so then and ONLY then will I issue a refund. I'd rather lose a bad customer than increase cost on a good one. Fortunately almost ALL of my customers have been awesome and return requests are extremely rare. I do appreciate you guys! Also a word of advice...if you want to try a product and you don't like the fragrance DON'T buy more than one! Scented products are all preference based. I've bought many products I don't prefer. I eat the loss because I chose to buy it. Big retailers can eat the loss...us little guys cannot. If you have QUESTIONS about an item...please write to me about them BEFORE purchasing. That way you can assure you get what you want before either of us waste our time and money.
