Very nice knife Gus!

This Remington R3843 popped up on eBay last week for a very low BIN. Arrived today and surprised it had a case with it as seller never mentioned it having one, it did explain the verdigris shown in his pictures. Knife appears new, never used, I took pictures without even wiping it down as I wanted to record the condition as found.

Amazing knife Augie! Finding beauties like that makes all the time spent searching for them worth it

Speaking of nice unique finds, this one popped in the door a few days ago. I know, me and my strawberries ...
A great deal on a 633865 with such smooth action, snap and the most pocket worn bone scaled knife (in one piece) I’ve ever handled. Stress cracks/fissures, all nickel/steel construction, and those beautiful pulls. I enjoy this more than any new knife !! (BLUSH)**

What a find! Great example of that pattern.

 

[veitsi_poika]

Picked up this Camillus made High Carbon Steel stockman likely made for Sears back in the day... I just like everything about this knife

 

[Will Power]

Very rich bone on that one @veitsi_poika I'd include it in occasional carry

Kev, I really like these Knives- Sears cornered some stunners from Camillus!

Augie that is a very nice piece ! Extremely well done on that one!

Thank you Duncan, got lucky for sure.

Another scout knife I lucked into this week, a Case Tested in green bone, not sure it was ever used but did suffer some from age.

 

[Campbellclanman]

Augie - I consider that an awfully nice Scout. I think we all like to get hold of Mint old Knives let’s be honest about that, but those Mint ones would all be pretty boring if all knives including the old ones were like that.
Seeing a very nicely made knife that comes from the era known for that particular Cutlery Manufacturers “ Prime
Era” is something that in itself pretty special - especially when the Bone Handles are some of that Cutlers best in that time as well as those beautiful full blades. It gives a knife enthusiast a lot more to look at and appreciate. Beautiful Knife!

So in saying this, I’d appreciate y’all packing up all those old Minties and sending them my way.
Many thanks in advance.

@Augie
You know, I’ve been lookin’ at your picks my friend... Ridonkeylous comes to mind. Crazy detail in these lately. Bravo

 

[waynorth]

Case beauty in a utility package!!
Nice score, yet again, @Augie !!

 

[Un-Chained]

I have been waiting for this one, or one like it for quite a while. My first Robeson with a round tang stamp! Smooth w/t, and somewhat still snappy. A tad cleaned, yet retaining most of it’s original lines. The colours and jigged bone had a hold of me, and I had mentioned it to Rob @rockman0 in excitement of it’s arrival... thankfully it’s precisely as expected

 

[Augie]

Nice jack Gus, Robeson had some good bone.

 

[waynorth]

Real Nice Knife, @Un-Chained !! How long is that Jack??

 

[Un-Chained]

@waynorth *Charlie it’s 3” 5/16
@Augie I’m also following your lead, some verdigris by the pins and left alone!
Thanks fellas, I luv it

 

[Campbellclanman]

That’s a handsome Knife there unchained.
As mentioned Robeson did immensely good work with their Bone.

Edit: Spelling.

Ulster congress splitback whittler... 4 words that only mean something to knife knutz There's a faint "Ulster Brand" visible yet and I just love the long pull and swedge combination on this one.

Thanks U-C... something about a curved bar shield on a congress makes it look pretty classy
