This one was in the mailbox today, a Schrade Walden 196, florist knife. It has the 1946-1973 tang stamp so it is from 48 to 75 years old. ::shrug::

Very cool piece and really like the horn. Congrats doglegg, that's a fine one. Nobody is going to have one like that when you pull it out to show it off. Sweeet. What a cool son you have.

Treefarmer that's a sweeet old Schrade too. Congrats.


BigHomer that looks like a sweeet Queen. Congrats and way to score one from the ebeast. Looks to be in great condition too. Nice score.

Here are 2 CASE Penknives I purchased from one of our AAPK store owners.
They are both 9 Dots (1981). And before anyone asks, no I was not a Jimmy Carter fan.

NOS or not, it's a beauty and a keeper!

Here is my delivery for today, another Camillus 27. This one has a very prominent Channellock etch. It isn't perfect (ding on the front cover, up near the top of the bolster, and the bail seems to have a slight tweak). But it's presentable, and if I find a nicer one, it'll get carried!

Tom, My posting got mixed up on this thread because I did not identify which knife I was commenting on. And a whole bunch of entries got between dir110 and my response. So when I mentioned his two knives and their case I was referring his nice acquisitions.

However, Having looked over your new pick-up with the wonderful buffalo horn I can only add kudos. Great looking knife.

Been looking for a Camillus 715 Yello-Jaket for about 6 months. Had one on my Ebay Saved Searches all this time and ended up finding one right here on AAPK thanks to the streaming banner at the top of the page.
