I purchased this lot of three off of Etsy this week, after "getting around to buying it" for over a year. "Smith and Wesson First Millennium Run Folding Knife with Bonus Colonial Camper Knife"
As you can see, according to the seller, they thought this was the main schtick to the lot. Like most S&W knives, it is a fairly cheap knife, and is not really that well made. It feels pretty cheap. The opening isn't that smooth, and the thumb stud is too small.
I guess because it appeared to be a promo/giveaway knife, the seller didn't think much about the Colonial, and viewed it as the bonus. I was only interested in this knife. But, I've not seen another like it. While CKC did produce pretty much this same pattern as a Girl Scout Knife (albeit, in brown, black, and green wood handles), I've never seen another like this. It has an Idea Tools shield, and has an etched blade for Consolidated Electrical Distrbutors, and "'06" etched on the bolster. Handles are imitation stag pattern plastic. I suspect it was made up by CED and Ideal as a giveaway to customers in 2006. I'm sure CKC would help me clear this up, but the only way to contact them is through social media. They don't have an email address, and the contact form on their website only serves to enquire about becoming a dealer. So obviously, they have no Customer Service. Tang stamp is: "Colonial" over "05" over "Prov. R.I."
This little Ridge Runner knife was thrown in with them. It is built pretty cheap, but it cuts. I'm keeping this in my raincoat at all times. Cheap steel that shouldn't rust, these are like $2 new, so cheap to replace.
I'm really enjoying seeing all the different knives everyone has, thanks for sharing yours.
Scored this beautiful Fight'n Rooster folding hunter!
