Paid 11 cents for this tiny little Cutco 1720 knife. Hope to get a little less than $40 for it! Always love finding Cutco!

Still on my list. Haven't found any yet. I did get an 8" AllClad frying pan for $3 this week. My first for AllClad.

Nice! I tend to find a few at some of the estate sales around here. Everyone always rushes to the jewelry and I go buy a pile of $60 knives for $1 each.

ethanfez ,

The feel of smooth contours of the Rosewood? handle in a vintage piece of Cutco is truly a touch to behold. Awhile back, I found a few larger Cutco kitchen knives and the old Bakelite wall rack. I do like their quality which is way above what one would think the brief "Cutco" name might lead a person to pass on them.

In this day and time, I was wondering if you keep and use a lot of your wooden handled cutlery you find at estate and garage sales, how do you "Sterilize" each knife to kill any germs or viruses that get in between the knife tang metanl ad the porous underside of the handle halves?

My parents have been using the "Salesman Sample" Cutco knifes that my dad had for over 45 years now. Any chance that we will ever see quality like that again?

There are still a lot of high quality knife sets being made. They cost a hefty price but they are worth it.

I actually sell all the Cutco I buy. I personally like a different brand more.
