I bought that 1983 Heritage the year my oldest son was born (1983). I gave it to him when he was old enough to appreciate it. Lovely knives. Some of the best.

That's a great gift to give. The heritage schrades are very nice, the best ones after the peachseed bone days. I like them a lot.

Camillus TL-29 from about 1975.

It's not common to find USA made pocketknives in Swedish stores, but that is what happened in 2010 when I found this one.


Camillus 710S

I suppose the collector interest is low for a stainless peanut, but I like it and the Walk&Talk + Halfstop is very good.
The blade sits very near the liner on the pileside, but it doesn't affect the function.

It hasn't got much time in the pocket, but I'm planning to change that.


Regards
Mikael

Picked up a Schrade USA 7OT Cave Bear. From what I've learned of the handle rivets, its post 2001. Was dull as a butter knife, but I fixed that

A couple beauties there, Cal. Here's a Craftsman large stockman in "bonite" from the late '50s.

My best friend has one of these but his is plain Jane bone stock. Yours is stunning, love the file work.
