Got two Schrade Cut Cos in the mail. The Jack knife (#2423) came in last week and the electrician's knife arrived a couple of days ago. Both great deals. The electrician's knife has a very interesting locking mechanism.. ...or should I say release lock? Ya have to press on the folded main blade down to release the screwdriver/blade. It's a real HOK. All blades on both knives snap like a gator....the screwdriver not as much. Thanks for looking!

I done purchased so many knives this week I can't remember what I actually got coming. ::facepalm::

Picked up 7 knives just off feebay. Got this one in today and I could've swore I was bidding on an 8OT, ended up being a 34OT. ::dang::

Probably spent to much on it thinking it was a 8OT... oh well.. it's not like I can't have enough Walden stockmans of any model. Especially if it came with a hinged box. ::nod::

Postman dropped these two off today. Got the CASE XX 6332 from knifeaholic....Thanks Steve. The case is a nice honest old knife that is well pocketworn. It cleaned up well and is now "sharp as cheese".

The Queen is a #10 with Rogers Bone circa 1935-55.

The Case is getting some pocket time tomorrow. ::tu::

Case tested 22028 1/2. Flea market find. Wish it had a little more blade but it's nice other than that.

I have several Camillus 72's with the yellow Delrin handles but they're all SFOs or the one that isn't has a 22LR6 blade for the main (from the 22 Rimfire series). What I didn't have was a plain Jane, regular everyday Camillus 72 Yello-Jaket. Now I do. It showed up today and it's in factory condition. One more milestone recognized and accomplished.

That's a fine looking 72 Cuz. Love those knives.

This isn't a knife, but it arrived today!!! Joseph Allen and Sons straight razo; original horn scales, original box, and honed and shave ready. Joseph Allen and Sons were making straight razors in Sheffield from 1864-1925. Here are the seller's pics.

Bruno, you are correct. The front handle is carved in relief {amazing} and the rear handle is smooth white bone.
