J.O'. J.O'.Good job Tim!tvic wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2026 8:57 pm Bought an old display box for 10 bucks at a knife show a good while back - not sure what I was going to do with it. Finally decided I wanted to display my Sears knives. I painted it black, put new hardware on it, glued felt to the back and wove elastic bands into the back to hold the knives in place. I made the labels on the computer. The bottom two knives are a Craftsman American Eagle and the 1977 knife commemorating 50 years of Craftsman.
Fantastic work, Tim! That looks great!tvic wrote: ↑Thu Jun 04, 2026 8:57 pm Bought an old display box for 10 bucks at a knife show a good while back - not sure what I was going to do with it.

Nice Bob. Try some Naptha (I use Zippo) and a toothbrush on the staining, if you haven't already. It's always worked pretty well for me..rea1eye wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2026 9:42 pm Added 1 yesterday from 1977 .Delrin, 95044. I have not sharpened it yet.
There is some staining on the Delrin I cannot remove. Otherwise a
pretty decent knife.

Blade etched CRAFTSMAN stainless steel. Picked it up for a 10 spot. Flea market dealer told me he would be asking $60 if it was a Case or a Buck. lol

Nice knife, nice price. The Craftsman knives with the wood handles and brass bolsters are some of my favorites.OLDE CUTLER wrote: ↑Thu Jul 16, 2026 2:54 pm Craftsman 3 and 15/16 inch USA 95111, Camillus made (visible pins) wood handled.

I also like the grind. That knife looks barely used.toomanyknives wrote: ↑Thu Jul 16, 2026 3:39 pm Here's an old one that I like to slip in the pocket for light duty.. I like the blade grind on it..
Thanks Mel. A little used, but not abused. The blades are still nice and full, and sharp!Dinadan wrote: ↑Fri Jul 17, 2026 4:05 pmNice knife, nice price.

I have one of similar wood (95234). The wood color is very deep and makes the knife really stand out.OLDE CUTLER wrote: ↑Thu Jul 16, 2026 2:54 pm Craftsman 3 and 15/16 inch USA 95111, Camillus made (visible pins) wood handled.
