I traded into a couple dozen new S&W fixed blade knives and sheaths, six (6) each in four (4) different styles. They all have the same style of black rubber grips and brass bolster/guard. The only marking on them are "stainless" over "USA" on all of them and "Smith & Wesson" on the two longer blades.

#1 has a 5" narrow blade with a slight clip point, around 9.5" long.
#2 has a 4.75" blade, around 9.25" long.
#3 has a 3.9" blade with a clip point,around 8.2" long.
#4 has a 3.9" swept blade, around 8.2" long.

It would be most helpful if someone, anyone, could point me to the catalog or catalogs where they were originally advertised. Thank you in advance.

These were knives sold by S&W licensed cutlery dealer, Taylor Cutlery, circa 1982. Taylor's Nos. are as follows: #1 is 6084SW. #2 is 6080SW, #3 is 6083SW, and #4 is 6085SW. They appeared in S&Ws catalogs under same model numbers, sans the SW. and were called the American series. Catalog prices were around $26 to $29 ea. Taylor's wholesale prices were $16 to $19. ea. Ed.
 
So a 1982 S&W catalog would have these knives in it?

Would you have a catalog showing these knives that you could scan and email to me?

I allowed $240 in credit on the lot, so $10 per knife. Is there any market for them?
