Utility Knife

Post by thawk »

I came across this big utility knife on Ebay. I was surprised when I got it in the mail. It is a copy of an old Remington 4243 Utility knife. I've not been introduced to the Camillus Classic Cartridge series, but this is the same as a CCC-7, which is stamped on the back of the sabre clip blade. The sheepsfoot with the long pull is a real slicer too.
