Here's my Remington RS3333 with an acorn shield. The etch is barely legible and the punch still has some of the blueing left on it.

Here's a Camillus 4 liner U.S. Army camper that is near mint if not mint. I don't think there are to many of these in this condition. Check it out.

I know it looks like allot but I actually got some great deals on these knives. Plus I had several years to put them together. I have been doing my yearly Ren Wax and Rem oil thing to my collection so I have been posting pics along the way.
Having said that, I have an Ulster Dwight Divine scout that I picked up a while ago for a fair price because the owner had buffed the main blade a little to much. The rest of the knife is great and you wouldn't believe how hard it snaps at the half stop positions.

This is it for today. Football and Nascar plus the Tampa Rays baseball is all starting soon.
This is my favorite scout camper knife the Boker 182 in stag. They did a great job putting it together. The stag is matched well and all the tools open with ease with no wobble at all.

Back when Miller Bro's started this thread he sent me a PM asking if I thought there was enough interest to merit starting such a thread. I told him to try it and see what happens.

Look what happened! ::woot::

Here's a quote from Official Scout Blades by Ed Holbrook:

UTICA CUTLERY CO. UTICA, N.Y. circa 1919=1937: Kutmaster 1937-present

This firm started to manufacture Official Girl Scout knives in 1933. The tang stamp was Utica Featherweight and was made with aluminum liners and bolsters. The blades on these knives opened very easily because of the girls' dainty fingernails. In 1937 they adopted the trademark Kutmaster and it is stlll used today. Campfire Girls knives are tang stamped Kutmaster - Utica, N.Y.

Thanks for that info Phil. Here's my latest trigger pull from eBay and the subject of my question. The Utica Featherweight Girl Scout with jigged bone handles. This was the first bone handled Featherweight I had seen, and then I found one in one of the AAPK stores. The difference between this one and the one in the store is the long pull on the master.

This is the one I saw in AAPK store. Must have been an old add since it's not there anymore.
