I would do a number in my pants if I found a 70 year old 72 that had not been used.

The NYK is rough, but I guess okay for what I paid for it. Just a neat old knife.

The Camillus 72 has some nice bone on it. I originally thought it was a frankenknife, but I have since seen other examples with that blade configuration.

The Kent is pretty decent. Black comp jigged covers, neat pattern.

.........glenn, that's the best looking bone I've seen on the old 72!!.......I've got 3, but none are as pretty as that one!!!..............

If you are sure on the time frame 40-65 you did OK to very well, that knife looks close to mint which would make it pretty scarce.
Do you have a picture of the tang stamp?

So, I was up north today at a couple job sites, and on the way back, I always look for antique stores and thrift stores to check out. The first place I hit was a pawn store kind of place. They had some decent knives, but they wanted top dollar. I did find this Western 442 for $20.

I wasn't feeling that great about my buy, but as I traveled on, I almost passed buy a small dumpy thrift store, but ended up turning around to check it out. They had a glass case with the usual chinese crap and fantasy knives, then I spy a promising looking knife. I pick it up and and can't believe the shape it is in.

A beautiful Schrade Walden 804 whittler, full blades in great shape, and bone covers! And yes, they were only asking $8 for it. I could hardly contain myself as i was pulling out my wallet.

I checked it out more when I got it home. It needs some cleaning up, but it is a stellar piece, I can't believe what a great find I got. They are still out there.

Glenn, you got some nice knives there. That Western and a box seems a good deal for $20 to me.

Great looking old whittler too. Can we see the blades?

Glen, those were both great deals on great knives. Good work. ____Dave

jerryd6818 · Post by **jerryd6818** » Fri Sep 25, 2015 11:44 am

I agree with Joe. I would have paid $20 for that Western. The handles are Delrin® but the knife appears to be in NOS factory condition (is that glue squeeze out around the shield or Delrin® from a hot insert?). Great find.

And the Schrade? Wow! Does anything more need be said about that one?

Flea market finds EKA with yeller handles,case 0045r mint 6 dot,Imperial DE serpentine jack with a westpoint banner etched on it mint,and one I'd never heard of, a crazy horse congress with bone scales nickle silver bolsters and brass liners. Probably from the beautiful Orient but for $5 its a nice toter. Got home the mailperson had left a couple of nice SAKs one blue one red.
