Looks good BigHomer.

I always get behind in posting so here goes, 1st a boy scout wire handle mess kit (I always wonder what the proper spoon was on these). 2nd an Old Cutler 4 blade, 3 back spring farmers jack with file work. Not new but fine for me. And then this one appeared in the bay with no reference to handle material and I made an offer and got it. A Bulldog 'Seductress' Ivory handled whittler. It is about 3' in length. I'll post more pics in the respective threads. Thanks for looking.

That's a beauty kleencut61!

Good idea with the blade trade bighomer.

And Great score with that Bulldog doglegg.

Have a great weekend everbody!

Very nice knives guys!

Not my cup of tea, so more for you guys!

It is a nice knife, but the pin finish on the scales is not the best. Hunt around before you buy, the price varies from different sellers. This was not expensive, so can put up with the finish on the pins. If you are interested let me know, and i will put you onto the cheapest seller.

A Kutmaster made by Camillus? Never heard of that before. The Harley/United 72 is pretty neat, but I don't know why they chose to serrate the small clip blade. A lot of those United/Camillus (for Stanley and HD) seemed to have serrated blades on patterns that typically didn't have it. Why not the main? Having actually utilized the "Carpenter's Whittler" (I have a 1047, BSA 72) with carpentry and woodworking, I find the two smaller blades are what's best for detail work.

I think you misunderstood me. I didn't say Camillus made the Kutmaster. I said the Kutmaster was a Camillus 72 "VARIATION."

Today's trip to the post office yielded this crop of items.
This truly is a day of Schrades. First up, another Geo Schrade, wire handle, hawkbill pruner.
Next, we have another Schrade 863. My third of this Camillus 72 variation.
Last, but not least, I don't have a Craftsman 9494, yet (it's another Camillus 72 variation),
but I obtained a tang stamp punch for the 9494.
