Scout knife?

Colonial Knife was incorporated in 1926 by three brothers; Antonio, Domenic, & Fredrick Paolantonio. It grew to become one of the largest pocket knife manufacturers in the US during the 1960s. The company shut down in 1998, but was back into production under the Colonial Cutlery International Corporation in 2001. Colonial Cutlery International, Inc. brand is the imported line of knives and tools while the U.S.A.- made products fall under the Colonial Knife brand.

Scout knife?

Post by leggo »

Hello all , I have been collecting Colonial knives mostly Scouts. For a short while. My usual edc is Forest Master. Any opinions on the new Colonial Girl Scout knife. 4 blades , rosewood handles for $69.95 ? It's made in the USA and I don't expect it to be like GEC or Case quality but I don't want to buy junk either. I would probably just display it with my other Scout knives. ::hmm:: Any ideas ?

Thank you Shearer. I don't buy on ebay because I guess I'm too skeptical about giving my bank account info out. I can't understand how they are selling those for $17.00 on eBay and from Colonial it's $69.95 ? Something doesn't sound right.

If I can set up a paypal account with out entering my checking account number on my computer I will. 12 year old kids have hacked into the Pentagon's system. So am I paranoid or right to be a skeptic.
