Colt Firearms Collector |
|
Like other major gun manufactures, Colt sold branded knives and most of them have become collectibles, a few were originally intended for the collector market. Unlike their firearms competitors, Remington and Winchester, Colt's entry into the knife market came in later years and its first tenure lasted only four years, from 1969 to 1973. In 1993, the Colt trademark for knives was acquired by the United Cutlery Company and a variety of fixed blade knives were marketed by them until 2007. I only collect Colt knives made 1969 to 1973 and the early CT series 1 to 10 |
