Turkish clip and California clip are the same. I wonder if they changed the name due to WW1   :dunno:


From AAPK

Clip Blade: The clip blade is generally the most common blade found on American folding knives.  They have a concave curve from the back of the blade to the point, and a cutting edge that slopes upward to the point.  These features make them extremely versatile and enable them to perform almost any cutting tasks.  Some of these blades have a longer concave curve on the top that generally makes for a more narrow blade.  The narrower blade creates a sharper tip that is better suited for detail work but are not as strong.  The narrow clips are often called California clips, muskrat clips, or Turkish clips.

Ah, I wonder? That would be very interesting, if that was the case.  :tu:

Fuzz bucket,

Thx for the ‘35 Schrade Walden pics. I wondered what my clip shape on my 1950s-60s model descended from. I wish some artful graphics person would animate the evolution of blade patterns over 75 to a 100 years, so we could try to understand what was driving changes in shapes in traditional patterns.

This is quite interesting from 1946, courtesy of collectors-of-camillus.us

I can post this here, too. Apparently, there are some other people with discerning taste in knives. I will try not to depreciate things, too much.  :whistle:

Nice sparky! It amazes me that the linerlock was in use for so long on electricians and the like before became a mainstream lock.
