Old Friends Friday

[Jack Black]

Edge Brand, I think, though all it says is Solingen Germany. I sawed off the knuckle-wedging ball finials on the guard and filed off the hooked flange on the pommel, probably almost fifty years ago. And stuffed the handle with epoxy putty to stop it twirling.

You were an industrious 3-year old Jer

Welcome to BF Traditionals That's a classic IMO, Camillus also supplied the parts to Schrade, who shipped them over to the Richards factory in Sheffield, where they were made up by Rodgers-Wostenholm workers, as part of the Schrade-Wostenholm line, and shipped back to the USA

Maybe more than 50 years. I'll be 65 in a few weeks.

Thank you. Although I'm not the original owner, I've had the #4 some time. It's been a good knife, and a work-horse. Actually completed the set (in principle) yesterday with the #2.

"The 55" a Fantastic Old Friend

It's been in my pocket for most of this past week. A true classic and a very satisfying EDC.
The approximate nine years of non-use is a long story (best left for another time) but I will say, "I'm thrilled to have it back in the regular line-up! Hopefully permanently!!"

Edit; Welcome M mozarkmm ! Cool Camillus lock-backs!

Thanks for the extra pics, and congratulations on completing the set

Sounds intriguing James, I've been enjoying seeing that one

Thanks Jack. I've been enjoying sharing it in nearly any thread it qualified for this week.
Can't seem to get enough of this first-class lockback!
One more time...

I like the jigging on this Ulster. I've had it a while.

 

[Jack Black]

I can't remember the last time I carried my Peaches & Cream Lambsfoot!

The little Camillus erupted from the snow about eight years ago.
