The Record
Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correctConvexgolf.com dates this putter to 1902 and credits its design to Arthur Knight, a center-shafted mallet with a crosshatched face. The site's reporting describes the head as built from wood and lead, with that crosshatched pattern milled into the face itself, a detail convexgolf.com repeats across several of its own descriptions of the piece.
There's no maker-published record here, no catalog copy or workshop account to draw on. What stands is the single outlet's characterization: a wood and lead mallet, center-shafted, with a face texture meant to do something to the ball at impact that a smooth face wouldn't. Readers weighing this one against other early center-shafted mallets of the period will want to note that everything above traces back to one source's reporting rather than to verified record or the maker's own words.
