Jake,
Those yellow-handled Camillus knives are beautiful! For some reason a yellow Delrin knife us gorgeous to me. Thanks for sharing.

I like the yellow delrin knives too, very classic looking. I don't, however, like the tendency of the older Case yella knives to get those annoying pin cracks on the middle pins. That's the thing that keeps me from accumulating more of them.

Hey folks, picked this Imperial kit up recently and seems to be in great shape. I’ve gotten a lot more respect for imperial from reading AAPK posts on them.

Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
Nice! Most I see are missing a tool or two, or are just the knife.
Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
Leatherman had found a stash of the Juice CS4 and XE6 models, and had originally listed them back in early November for $80, but towards the end of last month,were put on special/Black Friday for $40.
It weighs just under 7 ounces but has most of the tools usually found on the 10-ounce and up Leathermans.
Yup, it's fat. It did not come with a sheath, but I had paid extra to get my C2 with a sheath back when it was still available in 2019.
Has some QC issues, and some design flaws. Like the C2, you have to make sure you close the drivers all the way. When not broken in, the pliers head will often jam up and bind in the drivers when closing the tool. The blade looks broken and reprofiled. In reality, they shortened it as a part of a 2015 redesign when rumors that the TSA was going to start allowing small pocketknives on planes, which never happened. The frame can accept almost an extra half-inch of blade length.
I think I still prefer my Rebar as the compact Leatherman with most of what I need, with the PST and Rev for light duty. Need to figure out where I put my Rebar.

A real deal for $40. Sometimes Black Friday really pays off.

! Good one Jake! It does my hand good to feel a Barlow in my hand! lol!
I picked up this Camillus pair a while back. 72 has a couple pin cracks, so it will be a nice little user. The 716 has some minor dings in the covers, but the blades don’t appear to have ever cut anything. Might choose to keep that one nice, but I decided to take them both for a walk today.

You’re welcome Mark. Glad to see those go to someone that really appreciates them. Both are nice knives.

It’s an honor to hear that from you Mark The 716 does have a uniquely interesting double lock back, doesn’t it?Sharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 11:52 am Willie those Camillus knives are superb. I like the lock back on the mountain man trapper.
Thanks for the kind words I really like the look of the yellow Case’s but have yet to pick one up.
My pictured 72 has exactly the disease you’re describing.

A coworker picked up these 2 at a TSA sale today for me. A little Camillus long line 24 Jack and a Barlow USA scrimshaw pen with ships on it and a light house. Cool little knives and I appreciate him thinking of me.
