Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
Mike I'm quite impressed with that one. Congrats on owning such a knife!
Scott that's a doggone shame that the bone is damaged on that knife cause it's a sweetie otherwise. With your cleanup skills I can only imagine what it might have been.........

H. Boker & Co. Solingen Germany. Left handed junior scout.
A pocket knife is still an intimate personal possession of the individual who carries it and consequently deserves the best of materials, finish and workmanship in its production. (Quoted from Boker's 1928 cutlery catalog).

Beautiful knife!
Very interesting bail, don't think I have seen that design before on a Boker.

Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
Thanks MRB. Boker used that particular bail for quite awhile on earlier knives, though it mainly was used on the Sportsman pattern and was slightly larger. I've attached some pictures of a couple of Sportsman's knives with the same bail for comparison.

Excellent, thanks for showing the sportsman's knife. That's a fancy bail and makes the knife look so much better

I picked up a Girl Scout camp knife several years ago, cleaned and sharpen it up and gave it to my Niece who was in the program at the Time.

Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
Maybe someone here picked up this rare Ulster scout. eBay sale closed at $635. No, I don't think much of that price was allocated for the Camillus electricians knife.

Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
I'm collecting the green acrylic ones with the same intention, I have one very clean one and one kinda meh one that will probably just become a user for me when I find another minty one for the other niece. Useful little knives that take a great edge.deltaboy wrote:I picked up a Girl Scout camp knife several years ago, cleaned and sharpen it up and gave it to my Niece who was in the program at the Time.
