Tom I've been eyeing the older Boker knives, you did good on that one.

Here's today's mailbox haul from last weeks escapades with a few more due later in the week.
Cheers!
I love the one with the lanyard!

Thanks!
Yeah, that was my best one of the bunch. Was looking forward to getting it in my hand. It's a solid knife, good weight to it too.

Hey! I ordered mine first! Hope I get it soon.

Geez, Ken. I should because I'm just right up the road from SMKW a piece (650 miles) and you're at the North Pole and all the way across the country (4000 miles). You need to move a little closer if you want to be able to expect that Blue Ribbon service.

Your expectations of the USPS are too high. Santa Claus is the only one that can easly find your place.

Don't know the age or the rarity of this Marlin Spike Rigging Knife. Made in Japan for National Blade of NJ. Scrimshaw on both sides.

Garry, that is a one beautiful knife. Love that scrimshaw work on both sides of that one. That is the perfect knife for scrimshaw of a sailing ship. I bet that one feels substantial in hand.

Had three old gents to move in with me this past week. One from our own knifegnome, the other two fished out of the bay. The two 72's are short line and the other is a Hammer Brand model. More pics in appropriate forms.

For a first Camillus stockman you picked a great one. A longtime Camillus employee, who has sadly passed on, stated on this forum that the 165, 179, and 177 were some of the best they made.

Thanks men! I don't really know anything about Camillus knives. Just happened to find it. You know the old saying even a blind squirrel finds a acorn every once in a while.
