I'd like to find a very good condition combo Letter Opener/Knife made in the USA. I am looking for a shell handled design (usually given out as advertiser's) as made by Imperial, IKCO, Colonial, etc. OH

Thanks Cutty! I got very lucky, another AAPK member has one and he is going to send it to me. I was hoping to find one here because AAPK members know what "walk and talk" are all about, most e-bay dealers of old office implements wouldn't know about that. OH

True words. I'm finding most eBay sellers ("office implements" or otherwise) wouldn't know "snap" if it bit 'em in the butt.
