Smith & Wesson 7pc Knife Collection w/ Display Case
Condition is New
$1100
what you see in pics is what you get
Blackie Collins Collection
In 1972 Smith and Wesson worked with well known and innovative designer Blackie Collins to introduce the company into this business.
This program was announced in 1975 and seven pieces were initially offered called the Survival Series that included a Bowie, Outdoorsman, Survival, Skinner, Folding Hunter, Fisherman and a Filet that is displayed in an inclined wood case w/ the S&W logo at the top.
The Survival had a hollow handle cavity covered by a solid brass screw-on cap. The handle was round and blended into a double quillon cross guard for maximum workability and production. The 5 inch blade had a wide flat spine and a sharpened false edge. Overall length is 10" with a 5-1/2" blade and weighed 10 oz.
The blades were forged in Springfield, MA by S&W from modified 440 Series Stainless Steel. The amount of work necessary for these pieces caused S&W to fall behind on production and delivery to the retailers. Smith and Wesson produced in house a few other pieces but none that required the amount of hand fitting as this series. The most beautiful pieces S&W ever produced.
