I found a box... wonder what's in it?

[Codger_64]

It was warm enough today that I went into my spare bedroom and rummaged around a bit. And I found a box I had forgotten and the thieves missed.

Should I open it?

Sure. Let's see what it contains...

Treasure box?

 

[Codger_64]

I'll spread them out some.

Hmmm... Recognize anything?

What do you think? Is there an EDC in there?

 

[Cap’n Smudge]

Nice stuff. Should be something in there you could EDC. If not, let me know and I'll PM you my shipping address.
I like the TL 29's.

 

[black mamba]

At least a couple! My old Ulster scout looks like it has a twin in that box.

 

[Mack]

What a treasure. There are some fantastic knives in that collection. Some look like they were just minted. Wow.
My eyes go immediately to the Mop(MOTS?) scout. I don't think I've seen one like it.
The delrin TL-29 just grabbed my eyes. Who made it?

 

[bdev]

That's a lot of Imperial's!

 

[N.E.Tim]

Quite a few BEAUTIFUL FOLDERS, I am glad that you had a NICE surprise finding them.
Thank You for Sharing Them With Us.
I hope that the thieves are caught with no cameras near by.

Now that's a very cool find Michael. I like the Tl-29's. The wooden one bottom left:thumbup:

Who made the capped Barlow- red scales?
Like others the camp knife is cool- but the slim light bone Jack with threaded Bolsters and the Jigged bone Stockman - what can you tell us about them please Michael?

 

[mr_badexample]

Box o treasure for sure! Thanks for sharing. I'm also curious about the scout Mack already mentioned.

The MOTS camp utility is a Stag Ireland made by Weber in his JOWIKA factory there before Albert bought it.

I'll edit with the Delrin TL-29.

It is an Imperial. You may see them also marked Craftsman, Holub or Klein.

You nailed it.

That one is special. A near factory condition TL-29 in light wood marked Schrade Cut Co. Walden N.Y. and it has a snap like a gator. Never used or sharpened. It has an elecric pencil etch on the backspring "PP&L CO." Pacific Power & Light Company is my best guess.

Imperial made these for Sears. I'll have to look up the date but I think 1949-50

The slim jack is an Imperial with plastic handles not bone. Late fifties without looking it up.

The stockman is a 3 1/4" Kingston, a sub brand Ulster started.

 

[Mack]

Thank you sir.
Are the scales on the Streamliner cell or something natural?

 

[CJZ]

Only you would just find a box like that lying about.

 

[Codger_64]

Thank you sir.

Bone-looking cell I think.

Swordbrand Streamline by Camillus pre-war.

 

[Mack]

Thanks again.

 

[sitflyer]

Glad these were saved from the thieves by being inconspicuous Codger! Makes me ponder for a moment on packing some away in similar fashion, hidden in plain sight, so to say...

This one caught my eye the first few times around, and does still; thanks for the extra information.

"PP&L": any chance it's Pennsylvania Power & Light?

Digging the little jackkknife in red/black with the crown shield. Nice treasure box!

Quite possible Ma'm. 50-50 chance unless someone comes up with another like Pasadina, Pascagoula, Pensacola.....

The "Fonzie" knives! Heh! Yeah they had a whole line of "Tu-Tones" and they were quite popular at the time. Remind me of Nash Metropolitans.
