This website is all about pocket knives!

Featured Knife Company

Miller Bros. (1872-1926)

Miller Brothers Cutlery were American knife makers from 1872, I believe they were located in Meriden, Ct., until they went out of business in 1926.

  • Knife Collecting - The internet provides a market - First, it allows the collector to more easily find (or buy, sell or trade) whatever he/she collects. In this case we're concerned with collecting pocket knives. There are auctions where pocket knives are bought and sold daily. I will provide some links later. If you are looking for a hard to find knife with very specific characteristics, chances are that sooner or later you will find it on the internet.
  • Pocket Knives - The internet publicizes market values - Secondly, it's easier than ever before to find out what something is worth. This has an upside and downside for collectors.
  • Knife Handles - The internet practically insures that you can find the knife you want to buy, but there may be fewer "bargains" to be found. This is because everyone can see what others are selling for. The internet also practically insures that you can find a buyer for the knife you want to sell, but there may be more competition from other sellers that may hold down the price you can get.

    In the old days, if you were the only person in your geographic area with a particular knife for sale, you might get a higher price because the buyer may have to go to great expense just to locate another one. Not so today!
