I'm impatiently awaiting a reply from a fella I made a trade offer to so hopefully I'll have something to post here soon. I want to slow down on the purchasing so in a trading mood just to have something new to play with.

Got this in the mail today from Amazon. I saw it while looking for something else and just liked it. Not expensive and nothing to write home about, but I guess that's what I'm doing.
Spring Assisted 3.25" BLADE, 4.5" CLOSED CARBON FIBER CAMO NYLON FIBER HANDLE INCLUDES POCKET CLIP.

Got this little PAL Navy General Utility knife from Dale. I am sure becoming a fan of this pattern. Very sweet bones. Thanks Dale.

Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
Thanks Iman, I already have one but not in this condition.
Thanks Steve, it will probably be put up. I pretty much carry a 72 and a benchmade facas all the time.
I have one of the Camillus as well and yes I love the bone on it. Congrats on yours. Thanks.

Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
I used to have a collection of the WW II bone handle 2 blade EO jacks like the PAL one shown above. Had about 50 of them, mostly Camillus & Imperial. The PAL ones are not as common. This was about 10 years ago and nobody was buying them so many of them i won on ebay auction for about $20. They are such a nice knife, excellent design, solid and now about 75 years later still function perfectly. Unused ones are rare.

Roland, I have both the Camillus and Imperial also but they are not in the condition of this one. I am surprised they are not in greater demand. 
Thanks Doc.

Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
Finally! I ordered this OKC hunting knife in February and got it today $23 to my door. What can I say? This has been a classic kitchen knife for years and I've shortened, reprofile the blades and put new handles on many. Five inch blade 1095 steel and a decent sheath. I already want to brown the blade and put bone handles on it!

No mods to this one. It's a new offering from Ontario Knife Company based on their butcher knife. Comes this way from the factory with the sheath.

Rescued these two from my PO Box today. A Camillus 1047 & a Camillus "WHAT-A-KNIFE." This WHAT-A-KNIFE, has two blades and will go nicely with my other WHAT-A-KNIFE.

Mark, do they feel similar in hand ? Same size & shape frame but maybe they feel very different ?

Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
SSK congrats, beauties both. I like the lambsfoot, blade doesn't stick out as much when closed, sleek, slim, less footprint in the pocket. Sold out like a Northwoods, and priced about like one though. But absolutely beautiful. I'm smitten.

Honestly I think the Oily Creek feels better in hand. The Waynorth is just a bit too slim. I am not sending It back and I’m not unhappy in the least. If I needed a knife though to use, the Oily Creek is my first choice. When a I say too slim I mean the width from top to bottom.
