Are you talking about this one? If you are, it's a Tuxedo pattern.

That's the one. So I've learned something. A Tuxedo pattern. Pretty little delicate pattern. Thanks.

I really like those Ka-Bar dog's head knives. Especially the Coppersmiths. My gawd they are good looking.

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...

Holy cow! nice pick-ups, I especially like the coke bottle.

Didn't make it to the knife show? You could hold your own. Nice looking pick ups. Really like pick up #5.

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.

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...

I don't own an 180T, but here's a picture I found online:

That chestnut bone is very pretty, but that Barlow is foxy...

I am not a trapper guy but that one looks good.

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.

I think it says STAG with an etch of a deer.

Just received this old veteran of WW2 from Scott (TripleF). A Camillus Engineer's Jack with brass liners.
I just can't get enough of these old jacks.

The rest of the troops are in the background.

Everything on this page is gorgeous, congrats all, fabulous photo fodder. Man.

lol - with all the blades open on that Engineer's Jack, the liner well looks big enough to use as a lunch bowl...
