About the last three months have picked up probably 12 new slipjoints.....got about 6 Masonic folders, including a very sweet pearl handled fob from Schrade....at least 50 years old from the looks of it and some other fine selections-
CANAL STREET #CSC315929 Serpentine Stockman-The 2015 Forum knife and this are the only CSC knives I own. It's a shame they closed down, but am real happy to have gotten some stuff before it becomes too scarce and expensive, picked this one up for $100.00 and am keeping it mint
Camillus Rigging knife with locking marlinspike-this is my third one, trying to find one with a decent blade and no cracks in the covers has been difficult, but there is something about the basic pattern that I find appealing.
Camillus Boy Scout Whittler(x2)-wanted one of these when I was a kid and couldn't afford it. Picked up each on on the auction site for about $50.00. Keeping one just to have it in nice condition and the other am gonna use for wood carving. They are really a handy and useful model, Camillus knew what they were doing when they produced them.
Camillus 75th Anniversary Boy Scout 3 blade-someone had posted a photo of this on the Forums, I had never seen one before and had to have it. Keeping it mint.
Case Select 6347 Serpentine 3-blade stockman- This might just be my favorite factory stockman of all time. LOVE the n/s liners/bolsters(I hate brass with a passion) and the ss blades take and hold a very sharp edge. The attention paid to the Select series is completely worth the extra money, imo. It's got real nice cranberry red jigged bone covers on it, the usual color deviation from side to side, but no white areas. This was a sweet deal at $60.00....am carrying and using the snot out of this model.
Victorinox Orange Alox Farmer-love that orange color, and the Farmer is a very useful pattern. Will keep this one mint.
Hope you all are having fun and finding some good stuff to play with as well!
Best Regards,
STeven Garsson
