This OGFK has been quite a North America trotter with plenty of stamps in her passport, but thanks to Justin JustinFournier JustinFournier it has now found way it's way back to my other CPKs for the second and hopefully permanent time, this time around ;)

Much deserved gratitude to Momma NinJo @Jo the Machinist for adding the magic touches to this ol' gal OGFK. Truly, very very honored to have this one back in the fold:

^ Very nice OGFK Casinostocks Casinostocks . The ECAM are hard to come by on those. It’s cool to read that knife has come full circle for you. Hang on tight this time... :)

Only a handful in existence. 6 IIRC.

I too have an OGFK with ECAM scales. I didn’t know that there were only six sets made. Thanks for sharing that info JustinFournier JustinFournier . I do remember that it took months to find one and work a trade deal to get it.

On a similar note to Casinostocks Casinostocks story, I gifted this set of scales a while back to a dear forum friend who is more of a collector than I am. Last year he was interested in an uncommon set of UF scales I had, so we worked a trade and the ECAM scales came back to me. I think he knew I kind of missed them, so he found an excuse to devise a plan to get them back to me. Thank you Amigo!

Phil, you have 2 of the most elusive OG CPKs :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

If I find the time, I will go back to search the 2 sales threads pertinent to the sales which offered the OGFK and the EDC1 patterns with the early ECAM options. I think that back then, Nathan either had not scored the motherlode out of that ship yard thingy deal or he had just tapped into a very small section of it. I dunno really, maybe Nathan can chime in.

I got some of the original material to try it out and see if I could do anything with it. It's very old stock (1950's perhaps) for bearings for prop shaft. It's round. It's not particularly simple to work with and I didn't know what I wanted to do with it. Once I figured out what it was and what I could do with it, I got all of it. Those OG FK were very early in the process.
