Well, much to my chagrin I was not able to make it to the Dalton Ga. Knife Show due to some mechanical problems I incurred in North Carolina so that brings my score to Work Days - 15,144 vs. Knife Shows - 0. I'll try to make the Blade show in June
. I was able to pick up a few onli ne last week though and had a Somewhat varied mail basket when I finally made it home. Three Cases and two Northwoods.

Greg, you know, a *really* dedicated knife nut would have left the truck on the side of the road and done a "planes, trains & automobiles" adventure to get to the knife show...

This one just came from Cosgrove (AAPK store).
It's a Camillus Engineer's Knife with brass liners. Early wartime production.
The main blade has wear but it's still a good strong knife.

Re: Mail Call !-Post your new pick-ups here............
In another thread, we were discussing the mix & match parts with Schrade that occurred at the end of life for Camillus. Lo & behold, what should come in today's mail? A perfect example of exactly that. This is a single-blade linerlock that is exactly like a Schrade 18OT, except for the top & bottom line Camillus tang stamp and the blank shield. Companies can be so silly...

Wow, the spine picture of the old Camillus 4 blade shows how 'stoutly' made they were. 75 years old now and still going strong. Wish i had some Camillus genes in me.
