Today I add this pocket knife to my collection. It's another CAMILLUS 72, 3 blade, swelled center, 3 5/8" closed, short line, "whittler" pocket knife. This was one knife out of a lot/group of four pocket knives that I bought. I paid $7.99, NOT including the working man's punishment fee and shipping. So, round it off to $8.00, divide that by four and I ended up paying $2.00 for this knife. Not bad, if I do say so myself. It did need some minor cleaning. I cleaned it up, I took some pictures and here it is.

Thank you Tommy. Yes, I know you're kidding. I DO have a sense of humor. Although it's a very dark, twisted, gallows type sense of humor. ::handshake::

No reason to "bust" you. They're the same knife except for the shield. The 1047 is just the Scout version and doesn't have a pattern stamp on the blade.
