I know they were made by relatives of Case knives and went out of business in 1959. they are easy to sharpen and hold an edge well some were made as a pilots survival knife during WW2.
Can someone tell me the near value of them?
I also have a Marbles fixed blade pat. in 1912 can any one help with it? thanks

    I have gathered up numerous Kinfolks over the years. They hold an incredible edge. I have no idea what they are worth since guide books are seldon right about selling prices. You need to post the model number and a picture for more assistance.

    Their use to be a knife forum on the net, although I haven't frequented it in years. Large number of member supported boards, covering all type of knives.

    I sent in a number of photos of knives for identification, years back. Seem to be a lot of old time collectors who really knew their stuff.

    Like all collectables, factory originally and cosmetic condition had a great barring on value.

    Might try GOOGLEing using "Knife Forum" or something similar to see if you can find it.

    You might try contacting A.G. Russel. He's a real gentleman and very knowledgable. I'm betting if he couldn't answer your question he would lead you to someone who could.
    You might also try any of the several "knife" magazines in publication. Most have a Q & A section. Good luck.
