Found this old Kastor list Craftsman over on another forum. It is bone handled and appears to be pre model number. This is probably the best example of a Kastor list Craftsman that I have. The seller was from Israel so I am quite the international blade merchant. Am glad to bring it home. Thanks for looking.

This morning, these three knives join my CAMILLUS 72 variation family. First one is a POWR-KRAFT (not stamped 84-11 on tang), 3 blade, swelled center, "whittler" pocket knife. The second one is an ULSTER 63 (shield missing), 3 blade, swelled center, "whittler" pocket knife. Third up (the next post below), is an "unbranded", 3 blade, swelled center, "whittler" pocket knife. The only clue to this one is the shield. I DO NOT care what the country of origin is for this knife. None of these needed any cleaning. I took some pictures and here are the knives.

Continued from the post above this one. This is an "unbranded", 3 blade, swelled center, "whittler" pocket knife. I do believe I have figured out what the shield on this knife portrays, it's a "Deer Head." I only had a dim light lit and I saw the shield at an angle. There it was, the image magically appeared and showed itself to me. I tried to capture it with the camera. I think I got it. It's the very last picture.

Skip that Powercraft with the milled liners is awesome and the deer head is unique and interesting as well. Glad you got them.
I ran across this OlsonOk on ebay but it was listed a 2 1/2 inches. It was about to expire so I made and offer and the buyer accepted and even knocked a little more off to make it an even $20 shipped. To my delight my gamble paid off as it is indeed 3 5/8 (9/16) and one I had been looking for. So I am elated. It is well used but that just means that I got somebody's EDC. Needs some clean up but could not be more pleased.

I am just a little curious.
Do you have all of the 72 clones?
OR... is there maybe one or two that have alluded you, oh great one?

There are 2 or 4 that I'm aware of but have never seen for sale. I have pictures around here someplace but I can't find them. I can picture the folder in my cranial cavity but not where it is and of course asking me to name them is an exercise in futility.

I experience the same sickness with Old Timers.

This is the latest CAMILLUS 72 variation to join my collection. It's a McGrew ARKANSAS, "HillBilly Classic", 3 blade, swelled center, yellow handles, "whittler" pocket knife. It came with the box. It required no cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is. The last picture is of the 4 McGrews in my collection.
A very nice addition to a great looking group!! Congrats buddy!!

Congrats. I've not seen many Olson's and usually way above a $20 price point. A nice addition indeed!!

Fished a little Craftsman 9494 out of the bay. It is in pretty good shape with full blades and not a lot of wear on the handles. Thanks for looking.
