Found, in an Ohio Antique Mall
Coming home from Cambridge, OH we stopped at an Antique Mall, in Harmony, OH called the Heart of Ohio. It is the largest Antique Mall in Ohio. I've been stopping at Antique Malls for about 12 years now; I've gotten a feel for glancing at a display case and finding the ones with knives. Although I didn't buy it (although I wanted to) one case had an original issued John EK WWII made knife.
I settled on this small knife, made by B. Wescott, who I can't find any information about online. A nice little custom: I googled "B. Wescott, Knifemaker" and found very little information; I have found "Cody Wescott" a KMG member from Las Cruces, NM who's knives and sheaths, including blade stamps are identical (except the B. Wescott). I will reach out to him and see what I can find out. Other then that it is a well made and executed knife. |

I believe that knife was made by Buck Wescott, Cody's son. Jim Wescott, Cody's father and Buck's grandfather also made knives. Their knife styles and sheaths reflect their relationship.
Jim passed away a few years ago and Cody passed away this October. Jim and Cody were the best of men, and Buck is a fine young man. I would be interested in this knife if you were thinking of selling. |
