Just received my second Syracuse today! The first is an EO ad knife with a bail and cap lifter. Had it about a year I think. She's a keep due to my current love of cap lifters. The new one might end up back on the market. She has a little shrinkage going on and the main blade is the only sluggish one on either knife. The other 3 blades have excellent snap on open, close and half stops. Really diggin this brand right now.

A Syracuse "SCOUT KNIFE". No scale or shield pins. I made the bail. 3-5/8" brass liners. Tough little knife. J.O'.

My Mom used to say that a collection is when you've acquired three of something. Well, I found four Syracuse last weekend (same source) which, I guess, gives me an instant Syracuse collection.

Thanks for looking,

Chris J.
