Politician(s) In Your Pocket.

[New_Windsor_NY]

So, you're NOT an organized crime boss. You can still have a politician or politicians in your pocket. Do you have one or more? The following pocket knives were among various groups or lots of pocket knives that I have purchased over the last couple of years. Not one of these pocket knives was the actual target of, or reason for, my purchase. They are however, in good enough condition to be added to my general, pocket knife collection. They are in order by the year on the knife itself or by the year or era represented by the politician on the knife.
