2flowers, good looking Camillus. I like the mix of blades you rarely see together. Good yellow too.

Lots of nice knives I see here. Looks like it might be a fun hobby. :D I just got one in the mailbox that really blows my skirt up. It is mirror bright absolutely "mint." (I hate that word).The tang-stamp suggests pre-1945 Solingen, but for all I know it was made last year. The fit and finish are superb. Horn handles. flat nickel silver bolsters, shield and pins, but the liners are brass. I would have expected some half stops for an old knife, but not. Here's the kicker: not 3 1/8" or 3 3/8", but a full 3 3/4". I have been looking for a utility knife with larger scissors for a long time. I am loving this knife.

Cal, the Boker tang stamp chart says that stamp was used until 1944. ::shrug::
That sure is a doozy.

Thank you, Jerry. Sometime in the 1970s I was walking down the alley in downtown Miles City, Montana on my way to the back door to a tavern, when lo and behold, here sits a 1930s Duesenberg (a plainer model) with the keys in the ignition. I reckon some old cowboy/owner was in the bar at the time, but I did not inquire.

Thanks Bill. I rather like it myself.

Edit: I'm glad I got the Toothpick. It's just cuter than a bug's ear and for $25 shipped, it was quite a deal.
