Good, glad you got a good one Tim, apparently they had some major issues with some of these. Zero snap and handles not lining up flush with the bolsters. From the pics, I thought you were probably in good shape. ::nod::

Powr-Kraft 84-11 it's the #72 Camillus made for Montgomery Wards. Good handles, NS bolsters, nice patina and the two secondary blades have great snap but the main blade has NO snap and is loose side to side (you can see by the pivot pin how much the frame has spread). It's just a place holder and the cost was very small so I'm pleased with it. A really nice one will come along some day and until then, I have this one.

Good knife Jerry, pretty typical when you consider it was the Main that opened and closed the most of time.

Picked these two up for $14 at the flea market today, a Camillus 22, and a Schrade 8OT. The Old Timer suffers from the same malady as the Camillus posted above by Jerry. Is there a way to correct this without sending it away for repair work?

They have both seen better days, but will be fun to bring back to regular service.

Thought I would post my weekend acquisions from the Badger Knife Show up in Janesville Wisc.

The first is a '46-'50 bone handle Camillus #72. Keith (Ozzie Marie) was kind enough to point me towards the dealer who had it. Perfect bone handles, good snap and for a used knife of this age, in good over all condition.

Second is an '46-'56 Imperial Scout, #72 clone, that Keith generousally gifted to me. I didn't even know these existed. It's been used and carried but is in over all, fairly decent condition. Makes me proud as a new papa to have it. Thanks again Keith. I can't find words to express how thrilled I am with it.

Third is an '08 Case Tony Bose, two blade swayback jack, I was privledged to buy off Keith. I've been eyeing these for quite a while and for the price, I couldn't pass it up.
