Very cool! I don't think I have any. I saw a Barlow at the pawn shop a couple weeks ago that had Ireland stamped on it but I don't know if it was from Ireland or not.

As it's coming up on St. Patrick's Day, I thought I would share this Stag Ireland Camper that I got as part of an online auction lot that included a Camco 450, a Sheffield multi-tool and an unnamed folder knife. The scales were very loose, but I was able to remove them and reconnect them securely. I am real new to pocket knife collecting, so it was good to be able to do some light restoration to this nice camping knife!

Already pictured my one Irish knife(I think I have a couple of Imperial Ireland knives around but can't locate them at the moment)so I figured to throw in a few knives with green handles.Surprisingly I found very of them in my accumulation.
First up is a fluorescent green handled diver's knife just stamped 440 Stainless Steel.
Second is a set of steak knives(I think) made of two different types of jade.
Third is a giveaway knife from the Colonial Knife Co. that also came in a green purse.
Fourth is a,"letter opener" with a green plastic handle that turned out to be an original Case V-42 dagger unsharpened! Pic is from the original e-Bay listing.
Fifth and sixth is a couple of Fairmount Cutlery Co knives with green cel handles.
Seventh is a Federal Knife Co dogleg jack.
Eighth is a small size Hubertus leverlock switchblade.
Nine and ten are a couple of very old utility knives;one by Hyde and the other by Jambor Mfg. of Chicago.

Interesting knife! Quite a mix of styling cues on that one.Looks like old English style kicks on the blades;the screwdriver blade looks like one out of a French champagne pattern and the corkscrew looks like a German made one.

Thanks K7K,
It is an interesting piece, the ivory is choice and the fit is very nice. Strangely enough, it is only the screwdriver and awl which have a true crocus polish with the blades being a glaze, quite odd. Either way, it is a finely made knife, well assembled with attention payed to detail.
