Camillus 23.

That sure is a clean looking knife.

[Quick Steel]

A very impressive Camillus. Looking very fine.

[Railsplitter]

Thanks guys. I bought the Camillus 23 with plans to have it re-handled but now that I have it in my hands, I'm not changing anything for the foreseeable future. Maybe later though.

Love those equal ends with bone. Very nice Richard

Camillus 23.

Rick......that is simply stunning. Congrats on that find!

[doglegg]

Love the old bones on the Thomason Richard.
Railsplitter, those 23's are sure classy looking knives.

A Schrade I picked up while in Seattle (missed out on the 2OT) but not a bad little $20 knife and belt pouch It was evidently a tool. Then a little ulster pony jack(?) a fished out of the bay for not much. It is well used. And lastly a prize for me, an OlsenOk 72 variant. More pic's an explanation in the 72 clone thread.

I bought a lot of three and they finally got here yesterday.

The Ulster Scout knife was pretty rasty but I did some oiling and Moto-Tool wire brushing and now all the blades have snap except for the main blade and it's more of a dull thunk. There's a chip out of the main blade but you could just say it's partially serrated. It's definitely a user except for one problem. One of the bolsters is gone. That leaves no doubt it's a Schrade made knife. (Swinden Key exposed)

The little Sears/Craftsman has full blades and the pen blade has great snap but the main blade is more like a dull thunk. Other than that, it's fair decent condition.

And then there's the little Case 1979 5220 Peanut. Other than age and lack of care, it's in good condition. The blades both have half-stops and gator snap. The blades have a little rust & patina. I think someone who knew what they were doing & had the energy could really make something out of this little feller.

The Craftsman and the Case Peanut will both clean up easily. Nice Find.

I was away last week, and didn't get back until this weekend. But this was waiting for me when I got back.

A later model Kutmaster small serpentine Jack 2-13/16 inch long . Clip blade etched with "Kutmaster TUNGSTEN STAINLESS STEEL" The Tangstamp on the Clip Blade has KUTMASTER over UTICA CUT .CO. , UTICA N.Y. It has a pen blade secondary, and both blades have the letter "T" on the Pile side. Gater snap on both blades.

Next is a 4" Large Stockman by Western U.S.A. Traditional Clip, Sheepfoot & Spey blades. Master Blade has WESTERN over U.S.A tangstamp which was used from 1961-1977, and has S-742 over STAINLESS on the pile side. The Sheepfoot & Spey blade has SS on the pile sides. Delrin Handles with "STAINLESS" on the shield. The knife feels new with fantastic (loud) snap.

Two small Kutmasters. The top one a small Serpentine Jack that is 2-7/8" long, with Clip master blade (has decent snap) and Coping blade secondary with strong snap. The tang stamp on the master blade is "KUTMASTER" over "UTICA N.Y." over "MADE IN U.S.A." The handles appear to be bone, especially from the edges, feel like bone with the thumbnail, but I haven't done a pin test yet. The lower knife is a Kutmaster 3-1/4" equal end Pen knife. Both blades have great snap but have been re-profiled. The tangstamp has block lettering with "KUTMASTER" over "UTICA N.Y." over U.S.A. Handles are Delrin.

Lastly a little Craftsman peanut style serpentine jack. Model 9507 2-7/8" long.Craftsman Crown shield on Delrin handles, Sabre Clip master and pen blade secondary. Tangstamp has "CRAFTSMAN" over U.S.A. 9507. Both blades have strong snap.

That "Tungsten" Kutmaster really helped me to solve a mystery. Klein has listed a similar model in their catalog since probably that knife was made, but was discontinued a couple of years back (I ordered one last week, tool dealer that had it listed actually didn't have it, so I was refunded); that, other than in tang stamps, is entirely the same knife. Handles are supposedly Delrin. I had been thinking it was a Camillus, but the handles were all wrong.

The others are really neat knives. I am a big fan of the Western, and the clip/coping setup in a cigar frame on one of the other Kutmasters is just plain perfect.
