Take a look at the Forrest Master and see if you can find anything strange with it.

Looks like it only had 3 bldes to start with instead of the usual four.The one I posted the other day had a really strange looking punch blade;almost like a coping blade with a rounded point.

I don't have the knife in hand yet but it only came with 3 blades,no punch,the first I ever saw. It has the PALCO,WORC,USA tang stamp. I'm going back through the post to see your knife with the different punch blade.
And you Sr git the cigar,lol.

Here is the pic of it.

I have had this one and always wondered about it. It is stamped 6445R but it is different than others I have seen and different than the picture in the books I have.
Is it a Scout or Military? Is it original?

That is very weird man. I have never saw it before,we need to show it to Bobby P.

Tex- That is a real nice scout.

See here: http://www.collectors-of-camillus.us/Ca ... illuss.pdf Scroll down to pg. 35, a little different blade configuration but the same blades.

Do any of you Guys remember what Bear MGC sold the standard 4 blade scout for. I have one that a guy wants to buy but I didn't right what I paid down and all the scout site is selling now is CCC knives. Let me know if you do remember. All my searches are coming up blank on Bear but there are a ton of Ulsters out there.
Thanks,
Mike

got this ka-bar

robeson wrote all over it


not sure of the time line on it

I don't know if you Scout knife freakazoids have seen this or not. I also don't know if that price is decent or not but I think the knife is very nice so thought I'd post it. It's supposed to be a Boy Scout Camillus 75th Anniversary Commemorative It doesn't matter because I'm not going to bid on it (although I wouldn't mind if I had the do-re-mi) but I'm curious if that's too much or not. There are several things I like about it.

Jerry,one of the things is prolly the clip blade

Jerry that's not too bad of a price for that knife in that condition. I've seen several in used condition bring $40 plus and they didn't have the etch or the box.

tendots wrote:Jerry,one of the things is prolly the clip blade

Roger that, Gus. And not just any old clip blade but THAT clip blade. Muskrat, Turkish & California clips are the only ones I like. I can tolerate the others, but...

Phil -- If I hadn't gone over my spending limit this month, that one wouldn't still be for sale. (I think because it looks like a #69 with a bail) Oh well. Ya can't have 'em all and it teaches me self control.

Got a new one and a real looker.

Looks good ! Can't make out the tang stamp. Whatizzit ?

got this Schrade Walden on the way, sheild must of been put on monday morning

shield reads SPORTSMAN

ok...132 pages of great knives...and here's my humble contribution. I just picked this up... Boy Scouts of Canada, main blade stamped C.J. Johnson Western Works Sheffield, back of blade stamped 'hand forged'.
The Boy Scouts were started in Canada in 1912, and if I have this right, C.J. Johnson was in business from 1841 - 1955. I'm trying to find a heritage contact at Scouts Canada that may have the history of the commissions for the knives so that I can nail down a date range.

That`s a beauty, thanks for posting it!

Thanks MB...I should have posted this picture as well. The guy doing the hand forging didn't have a very steady hand It gives the knife the human touch

Lawrence wrote: The guy doing the hand forging didn't have a very steady hand

It looks like the stamp got ground away some during the final shaping of the blade by the knife grinders, not an uncommon occurrence

Very cool knife Lawrence.

Very nice Lawrence... ...that's the first Canadian marked scout knife I've seen, thank's for showing...

I picked up this Kabar scout at the Parker Show from a shifty looking feller wearing an AAPK cap.
