It's In The Mail
Re: It's In The Mail
I've got an Imperial Frontier (probably actually a Camillus product?) 4514 on the way; for a user. It was a little less than $10 after I made an offer. The 3" lockbacks (like the 3OT) are good watch pocket knives, but are a bit small as a primary EDC. Full-size folding hunters are a bit overkill. At 4" this is just about right. I have the 4515; which is the same knife; but with wood handles and brass bolsters. It's part of my coal knife collection (etched Westmoreland Coal; and has the same name embossed on the sheath flap), so I don't use it. This one on the other hand will be a work knife.

Re: It's In The Mail
This morning, I bought this U.S.A. stamped, "deer head" pocket knife. It "should" be joining the zoo sometime next week. It looks like the blades are going to need some cleaning. When I receive it and after I give it the once over, I'll post MY pictures (hopefully) in the appropriate location(s). These pictures are the seller's.

Re: It's In The Mail
Camillus 50, sellers pic. Not really sure what the handle material is and I didn't see a pattern number on the back of the tang. Was hoping it would arrive today but it looks like it will be Monday.

Re: It's In The Mail
With all the knives I own, I haven’t done much collecting of ebony handles (outside of Buck 110’s). Saw this pre-war Keen-Kutter jack in the AAPK stores and ordered it yesterday. Should be in my hands Tuesday evening. OH

Ordered from AAPK store Old Cutler and Kabar
Re: It's In The Mail
Thanks looks like a great knife looking forward to it arriving later this week
Re: It's In The Mail
I just had the winning bid on this Western W72, around $13 including shipping.
I am guessing that this was made on contract from Camillus? Some of this gets confusing, but what I know for sure is that it looks beautiful from the pictures. I can't wait to get it.

Re: It's In The Mail
Whoa Reverand, looks like you won the prize with that one. And what a great price. 72 clones are everywhere! Great pick up and looks to be in great condition. Congratulations.
Re: It's In The Mail
Have this in the mail on the way.

Re: It's In The Mail
Got an addition to my Camillus pile that has two things I did not previously have - I did not have a #65, and I did not have a Camillus with a smooth synthetic handle.

Re: It's In The Mail
I purchased this pocket knife a few minutes ago. An Imperial, single blade, from Mexico. I "should" have it by October 31. I'll give it the once over when I receive it, although it looks like it's in good condition and post MY pictures in the appropriate location(s). These pictures are the seller's.

Great score! That's probably only the third Mexican Imperial I have seen--ever. And the smallest.New_Windsor_NY wrote: ↑Thu Oct 17, 2019 1:18 am I purchased this pocket knife a few minutes ago.

Re: It's In The Mail
Should be here today.
Camillus Cub Scout Knife, BSA883--aka the "budget" version. Bought this for a small toolkit I'm putting together. For a work knife, I love the Cub Scout. Fairly light, compact, tough, as well as locking screwdriver and awl--the two tools that WILL fold up on you in use if not locking. Never had a cutting blade do it with this frame size.
From here; $8 shipped. Pretty danged cheap if I say so.

Re: It's In The Mail
BTW Skip. That's a fine looking 863 you have coming. Addictive aren't they?
I don't know why, I just did. Should show up on Monday.
I was the only bidder for this Cannon 3 piece set. It will be interesting to see if the half stops are sloppy on all three.
