For anyone who doesn't read the Mini-Trapper threads, this one showed up a little over an hour ago.

Today, my afternoon trip to the post office yielded this crop of knives. First up is an "unbranded", single blade, 1 tool (corkscrew), "Deer Head" pocket knife. It needed no cleaning. Next is an Imperial, 2 blade, "Deer Head" pocket knife. It required a VERY thorough cleaning. Last is the CAMILLUS 200 Commemorative Set. The knife is a 3 blade, stockman pocket knife. It didn't need any cleaning. My Adolphus & Anheuser Busch pocket knife & straight razor prints arrived also (not pictured in this thread). I took some pictures and here are the knives.

I said it somewhere else but it bears repeating, a Marine would buy just about anything if it had the Eagle, Globe & Anchor on it.
Very nice, both the gift and the reason. The 307 is the large stockman akin to the Case 75, no? I have none in my herd as of yet...
I think I know what I want to do with a spare shrinkydink yet full-bladed 1047 I have around here... Thanks for the inspiration!
Got this from one of Scott's suburban "missions" this week...

I got a Cutco 1888 in the mail today. Been wanting to try this one for a couple of years now, and I quite like it. It is light, the handle very grippy and comfortable to hold, the scissors work great, nad it has both plain and serrated blades. And it's the same size as a 58mm SAK (1990s USN seal edition shown). Few Victorinox and Wenger SAKs at this size (3" closed) featured them, and they are all limited models with short runs.
Unfortunately, the blades are both pretty dull, the main blade has a little wiggle, and Cutco's warranty department is closed until 2021 due to COVID. But, I did find a new lockback for only $20, and it should be here in a few days. Cutco does the lightweight knife very well. More expensive than a budget Buck, Case, or Gerber lightweight, but not quite Spyderco. I kinda wish they'd bring back aluminum handles like they had in the ALCAS era under Alcoa/Case ownership. When they open back up, I'm shipping this knife off; and will probably buy another when I can. Cutco no longer produces this model--they do still produce this frame, but in a configuration of a golfer's tool, with divot repair thingy and blade.

Neat Camillus set too. First I've seen with a Stockman and not a penknife.
