After a FedEx straightened out their goof, I received these guys. One goal of mine is to try out as many different knives and multi-tools with can openers as I possibly can. The "Camper's Best Friend" is sort of like the Australian Defense Force's FRED; shipping the genuine article would likely prove expensive.

Goals
My goal for the past 30 some years was to some day, make it back to the states. But for some odd reason I get the feeling that not everyone on my team has their eyes on the same goal.
Anyways, nice additions Dan & Q!

Thanks, Q and Tom! That new Queen sure is a looker...what more "excuse" do you need?

Always good to have a "goal" to justify buying more knives, Dan (although my wife calls it "an excuse" ).
My current "goal" is to collect as many different Queen patterns as possible with my favorite Queen handle material: Amber Carved Stag Bone.
The latest acquisition in pursuit of this goal is this #69 Bomber Jack (some call it a Heavy Jack). 3½" closed length
As usual, another sweet folder from Queen, ~Q~!
Not hard to see why those covers are a favorite!
I'll be watching with interest to see what you acquire next toward your "Queen" goal!

Theo, you've been on a hot streak lately! I can only hope you won't be banished to the doghouse when your wife gets back.

My first Cattaraugus arrived a few minutes ago… nice addition to my collection of USA-made knives with a patriotic or Americana theme
My first with these type of covers… brass? copper?
I will have to research…. No clue yet what year this might have been made
