Craftsman Knife I've Never Seen Before
Craftsman Knife I've Never Seen Before
I've never seen one of these before so when this one went up on the bay I snagged it (sellers pic not mine).
Kinda cool looking but will need some new handles and a bit of cleanup.

Nice snag! Post some pictures when you're done refurbishing it --I can't wait to see what you decide to do with it ..I'm sure it'll be beautiful though!

Re: Craftsman Knife I've Never Seen Before
Yeah, it might be.
The finger grip design caught my attention. It’s something a little different. I saw a Schrade Lb7 that was a similar design awhile ago (with the finger grips) but I wasn’t sure if it was a factory design or a Mod. It looked factory but Id never seen one before made by Schrade so I didn’t bid on it.
I’m looking forward to getting this one!

Re: Craftsman Knife I've Never Seen Before
Is there a 5 digit number on it? I have a similar one that does not have the finger grooves in it that appears to be a dead ringer for a Schrade LB7. The number on mine is 95233. Here is a pic of it.

I don’t have it in hand yet but the listing showed it as a “CRAFTSMAN Gunstock 94609 USA Folding KNIFE Soft Grip”

Re: Craftsman Knife I've Never Seen Before
Nice find. I have seen one of those before. The Gunstock models are hard to find. They have a grippy crosshatch texture on the scales with the inlaid shield that says "Soft Grip". I do believe Camillus made them.
Re: Craftsman Knife I've Never Seen Before
Definitely Camillus made, there was a Sears 94608 stockman in that series as well.

Re: Craftsman Knife I've Never Seen Before
Ray, look at the shoulder of the front bolsters. Schrade made 5" LB's (LB7) have a flat area whereas the Camillus made knives the upward curve of the top line continues right to end of bolster. No flat "parking spot" on the top surface of bolster = Camillus.knife7knut wrote: ↑Wed Oct 28, 2020 1:11 am Is there a 5 digit number on it?

Nice find Jeff! I'm sure it will look better than new once you have worked your magic on it. Can't wait to see what you do with it!
