It's another HAMMER BRAND, 3 blades, swelled center, 3 5/8" closed, "whittler" pocket knife. I gave it a minor cleaning, I took some pictures and here it is.

Papa Bones wrote: ↑Fri Mar 26, 2021 9:42 pm Well....... I finally found one and very glad to be able to add it to my Camillus 72 Clone Family. A 1999 Harley Davidson HD-21 three blade whittler. It is 3-5/8 inch closed. It has the Clip Master Blade with Harley Davidson tang stamp on the front side and H.D.21 over 440SS USA with the year 1999 and HD on the pile side. It has a Coping secondary, and serrated small clip blade third blade. Blades are tight, no wobble, and excellent snap. The blades have the original luster and finish and don't appear to have ever been on a stone since new. It has the Winged H-D shield on black stagged handles. The only thing I've done is oil the joints. It does have some faint scratches on the bolsters.

Oh Smitty, that’s a heck of a nice piece you got there. Not all that easy to find in that shape
Thanks for posting it, very well done my friend. Your on a roll again between this and your Barlow. Some good hunting lately.

Nice! You don't see the Camillus HD knives that often, and when you do, they're typical "biker knives"--i.e. big lockbacks. Looks great too!

The serrated small clip blade is really unusual. Seems on the multiblade Stanley and Harley knives Camillus made for United Cutlery, they liked to shove in serrated blades. And they cut really well.

A good one to scratch off the "72" variations list, Smitty.
Good find, congratulations.
