Description

H. S. 82; R. S. LANDIS. Pocket-Knife.
No. 221,467. Patented Nov. 11, 1879.
UNITED STATES PATENT OEEIoE.
HENRY S. LANDIS AND REUBEN S. LANDIS, OF CANTON, OHIO.
IMPROVEMENT IN POCKET-KNIVES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 22 1, 167, dated November 11, 1879; application filed July 14, 1879.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that We, H. S. LANDIS and R. S. LANDIS, of Canton, in the county of Stark and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Knives; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
The object of this invention is toprovide a cheap and simplebut effective means for identifying a pocket knife, and at the same time furnish a greater ornamentation for the article.
Figure l is a side View of a knife embodying our invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the same.
In the drawings, A represents the side piece of the handle of a knife, which may be of any desired form and size. The spring B and the blades 0 C are secured between the side pieces, A A, in any ordinary or desired manner. The
side pieces are recessed, as shown, leaving enlarged end pieces, and adapting them to receive the separate cheek-pieces D D. These pieces D D may be made of any suitable material, though we prefer to manufacture them of celluloid, as they can be thus made not only transparent, but without the great liability to be fractured, which they would have if made of glass or other similar brittle and transparentsubstance. These transparent pieces upon the handle permit that the name of the owner, or that any other mark for identification, can be placed beneath them, and thus be removed from the danger of being erased or changed.
Moreover, this construction of handle enables us to greatly increase the ornamentation of the knife, as we can place beneath them small pictures or other ornamental objects.
These pieces D D are riveted to the handle in the ordinary methods.
What we claim is- A pocket-knife having marks of ornament or identification beneath transparent cheekpieces D D, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we affix our signatures in presenceot' two witnesses.
HENRY S. LANDIS. REUBEN S. LANDIS.
